Determination of horizontal and vertical wavelengths of gravity waves in the mesosphere by spaced wind measurementsThe reduction of spaced wind measurements taken over a range of heights is described. The equipment used is a medium frequency radar with one site consisting of a vertically pointing transmitter and space receiving antennas, and two remote receiving sites with spaced antennas. Assuming approximately horizontally stratified scatterers, horizontal winds are thus available at the corners of a triangle of side approx. 20 km in the GRAVNET system.
