The mechanics of Aircraft Flutter - Ghost Timing
D = Direct path distance (Km)
Dar = Distance fron Tx to aircraft (Km)
Das = distance from aircraft to receiver (Km)
tg = time to ghost from direct signal (uSec)
= ( Dar + Das ) / c - D / c
c = Speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/sec = 0.3Km / uSec
tg = in-direct path delay - direct path delay
tg = (Dar + Das - D ) / 0.3 uSec
Note : 1. When ? = ? there will be maximum reflected signal.
2. As the aircraft path is not obscured by terrain the
potential for a large ghost is high.
