31 /** Class modifying theoretical angular measurement with tropospheric radio refractive index.
32 * A radio ray passing through the lower (non-ionized) layer of the atmosphere undergoes bending
33 * caused by the gradient of the relative index. Since the refractive index varies mainly with
34 * altitude, only the vertical gradient of the refractive index is considered here.
35 * The effect of tropospheric correction on the angular measurement is computed directly
36 * through the computation of the apparent elevation angle.
