The paper develops an atmospheric model for the signature analysis of scintillation modulation of infrared signals with complex structure or thermal distributions transmitted from a satellite. The model permits calculation of the depth of modulation, the frequency spectrum of the scintillation, and the probability density function of the variations in the received signal. It is concluded that the reduction in the level of experimentally measured scintillation is as much influenced by the viewing geometry and isoplanatism of the atmosphere as by the apparent size of the source.
