forward scatter [¦fȯr·wərd ′skad·ər]

(communications)

Propagation of electromagnetic waves at frequencies above the maximum usable high frequency through use of the scattering of a small portion of the transmitted energy when the signal passes from an unionized medium into a layer of the ionosphere.

Collectively, the very-high-frequency forward propagation by ionospheric scatter and ultra-high-frequency forward propagation by tropospheric scatter communications techniques.

(geophysics)

The scattering of radiant energy into the hemisphere of space bounded by a plane normal to the direction of the incident radiation and lying on the side toward which the incident radiation was advancing.
