Transmission
MATLAB
[ExtTrans,AbsTrans,ScatTrans,TotTrans] = Transmission(Atm)
Description

Computes atmospheric transmission given input atmospheric model. Returns transmission given extinction model, absorption model, and scattering model separately. If both Abs and Scat models are specified, and if the transmission calculated from the extinction model does not equal the transmission calculated from the sum of the absorption model and scattering model, then the function will issue a warning. If Ext model is not specified, then ExtTrans will be set equal to TotTrans.

Parameters

Description 
Atm [struct] 
Atmospheric model structure from AtmStruct, must include 'dz' field. May include fields 'Abs', 'Scat', and 'Ext'

Description 
ExtTrans [scalar] 
Trans. for specified extinction model, set equal to TotTrans if Ext model is not specified. 
AbsTrans [scalar] 
Trans. for aborption losses only. 
ScatTrans [scalar] 
Trans. for scattering losses only. 
TotTrans [scalar] 
Total trans. including losses due to specified absorption and scattering.
