The effect of an aircraft which flies through a ground station-to-satellite link is determined. There are two aspects to the work reported here: (1) an aperture blockage theoretical solution developed by Rudduck and Lee was used to calculate the effect of a large aircraft (C5) for various satellite ground station antenna diameters, and (2) the compact range facility at the Ohio State University was used to measure various targets, including a 737 aircraft, and to validate the theoretical solution in item 1.
