Characteristics of interfering signals in aeronautical h.f. voice channels
Interference from other users can be an important source of errors in aeromobile h.f. data transmission and is often more detrimental than the effects of multipath propagation and atmospheric and receiver noise. This paper describes briefly an initial investigation into the frequency and time characteristics of interfering signals within aeronautical h.f. voice channels and considers modem proposals that can improve the performance of slow-rate data transmissions in the presence of such interference.
