A new solver based on an improved Chebyshev spectral method is proposed to simulate the atmospheric propagation in the case of parallel-plane atmosphere, Rayleigh scattering, and a Lambertian surface at the bottom of the atmosphere. A numerical validation is achieved against a publicly available benchmark dataset and an analysis of the...

2024 (v1)PublicationImproved Chebyshev spectral method modeling for vector radiative transfer in atmospheric propagation
An improved spectral coefficient method based on Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind is employed to solve the vector radiative transfer equation under the assumption of parallel-plane atmosphere and Rayleigh scattering. The solver is extended to consider a Lambertian surface at the bottom of the atmosphere. The computational properties of...
