Figure 8.
Three runs of CorrSim with different target altitudes and its effect on scintillation noise; 10$^{\circ }$, 25$^{\circ }$, and 40$^{\circ }$. Band A used default noise, while only scintillation noise was applied to band B (to simulate a Space+Ground based observation). Note how scintillation noise strongly affects a target at 10$^{\circ }$, yet has minimal effect on a target at 40$^{\circ }$ (and thus higher altitudes).
