Satellite to aircraft multipath signals over the oceanA satellite-to-aircraft communication link over the ocean may include a specularly reflected signal and a diffusely scattered signal, as well as the direct path transmission. A computer program is provided for estimating two statistical properties of the diffuse signal, namely the Doppler spectrum and the delay spectrum. A convenient representation of the total signal is also provided. Examples of the Doppler and delay spectra for a number of representative link geometries are given to illustrate the features of the diffuse signal.
