Abstract:Accurate calculation of field-strength and delay of ground-waves is a key technology in timing via BPL and Loran-C. In this paper the calculation of field-strength and second phase factor for low-frequency range and any distance is realized by using VC++ object-oriented and visualization programming. The Microsoft Windows graphical user-interface makes engineering persons to operate easily, and this interface is more understandable and more practical. The comparisons show that the calculation results coincide with available data very well.

Key words: field-strength;signal propagation delay; secondary phase factor
