An algorithm for solving the direct and inverse problems of refraction in a planetary atmosphere is described which is based on the use of the integral Fresnel transformation. The solution is represented in the form of a double discrete Fourier transformation with respect to the refraction angle. The algorithm makes it possible to determine the height dependence of the refractive index from the dependence of the refraction angle on the sighting distance for the atmospheres of the earth and Mars. Further data (e.g., occultation measurements of the upper atmosphere) are necessary to determine this dependence for Venus.
