In the ionospheric propagation, consider the reflection takes place at a height of 400 km and that the maximum density in the ionosphere corresponds to a refractive index of 0.9 at frequency of 1O MHz. Determine the ground range for which this frequency is the MUF. Take earth's curvature into consideration
