| Abstract: | The Environmental Awareness for Sensor and Emitter Employment (EASEE) software, developed by the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center, has been considerably upgraded to provide advanced modeling of radio-frequency transmission and radars from the U.S. Navy Electromagnetic Propagation Integrated Resource Environment (EMPIRE) computational models. The EASEE software provides non-expert users realistic predictions of terrain and weather effects on signal transmission and sensing. This report discusses the newly developed module in EASEE for radio-frequency signal modeling via a software interface with EMPIRE. It begins with background information on EASEE and EMPIRE and explains the general structure and functionality of the interface. The report explores a variety of technical aspects of the new radio-frequency module, including signal transmission grids, projection and interpolation of computational results, terrain-elevation data grids, and calculation of transmitted radio-frequency power. Finally, it provides example calculations to illustrate the current version of the new radio-frequency module and then discusses future improvements. |
