RECOMMENDATION ITU-R P.845-3 HF FIELD-STRENGTH MEASUREMENT (Question ITU-R 223/3) (1992-1994-1995-1997) Rec. ITU-R P.845-3 The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that determination of the accuracy of HF fieldstrength prediction methods requires comparison of predicted field strengths against measured fieldstrength data of sufficient accuracy; b) that accurate HF fieldstrength measurements are therefore indispensable for the effective use of the?HF spectrum, recommends 1 that HF fieldstrength measurements conforming to Annex?1 should be continued systematically at various locations in the world; 2 that, where possible, the standard measurement method described in Annex?2 should be applied to the measurements; 3 that the fieldstrength data obtained from such measurements should be forwarded to the Director, Radiocommunication Bureau (BR) to permit the development of a data base containing uniformly consistent fieldstrength data. ANNEX 1 Measurement of sky-wave signal intensitiesat frequencies above 1.6 MHz 1 Introduction Measurements of sky-wave signal intensities, if undertaken in a carefully controlled manner, are of value in assessing the accuracy of methods for estimating field strength and transmission loss. Such measurements may also yield an indication of sources of error in existing prediction methods and may be used either to improve these methods or as a basis for developing new methods. Ideally, the requirements are for measurements to be carried out systematically over as wide a range of conditions as possible at a series of frequencies over paths of different lengths in all regions of the world. Measurements are needed at each hour of the day in the separate seasons and for different solar epochs. While it is recognized that opportunities to make measurements for particular circuits often arise only incidentally, with transmission schedules and system parameters such as the choice of antennas being determined by operational con
