ITU-R P.835-6 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R P.835-6 Reference standard atmospheres (Question ITU-R 201/3) (1992-1994-1997-1999-2005-2012-2017) Scope Recommendation ITU-R P.835 provides expressions and data for reference standard atmospheres required for the calculation of gaseous at

9、tenuation on Earth-space paths. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) the necessity for a reference standard atmosphere for use in calculating gaseous attenuation along an Earth-space path, recommends 1 that the standard atmospheres in Annex 1 be used to determine temperature, pressure

10、 and water-vapour pressure as a function of altitude, for calculating gaseous attenuation when more reliable local data are not available; 2 that the experimental data in Annexes 2 and 3 be used for the locations of interest when seasonal and monthly variations are concerned. Annex 1 1 Mean annual g

11、lobal reference atmosphere The following mean annual global reference atmosphere reflects the mean annual temperature and pressure profiles vs. height when averaged across the globe. 1.1 Temperature and pressure The mean annual global reference atmosphere approximates the U.S. Standard Atmosphere, 1

12、976 with insignificant relative error. The atmospheric temperature and pressure profiles are defined in two height1 regimes: 1) geopotential heights from 0 km to 84.852 km, and 2) geometric heights from 86 km to 100 km. The conversions between geopotential height, h (km), and geometric height, h (km

13、), are: = 6356.7666356.766+ (1a) and = 6356.7666356.766 (1b) 1 km are units of geopotential height, and km are units of geometric height. 2 Rec. ITU-R P.835-6 where a geopotential height of 84.852 km corresponds to a geometric height of 86 km. Since various P-series Recommendations (e.g. Recommendat

16、f such a record is given in Table 3. Above the maximum altitude, extrapolation can be performed by using the reference profiles given in Annex 1. To translate the relative humidity into absolute values of water-vapour density, the formulae contained in Recommendation ITU-R P.453 should be used. TABL
