The Effect of a Radome on Submillimeter Site-Testing Measurements. Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2004 (Ref: 11891)
Authors:
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We evaluate the effect that radome transparency has on atmospheric … opacity measurements performed by the skydip technique. We show that, except at rather high opacities, it is not sufficient to ignore losses in the … radome (or “window”)…
