Abstract
The Extreme Low Frequency (ELF) signal strength used in submarine communications was regionalized and geostatistics was applied for the analysis of its spatial distributions. An extensive variogram structural analysis was made to specify the correlations between the spatial variability of field strengths measured and the site specific antenna patterns as well as the physics model of signal propagations. Residual Kriging (RK), coupled with the physics model of ELF field signal strength, was employed for the spatial interpolation of ELF strength values. RK and variogram models used were cross-validated by checking variances of normalized estimation errors. Contour maps by kriging and the physics model were compared against field data measured.
