Analysis of electromagnetic wave field from models with one or two privileged directions
Abstract
A method was developed to analyze the measurements of an electromagnetic wave field in a spatial magnetoplasma. The definition of the wave distribution function is first recalled. The technique is explained for obtaining the spectral matrix (measured without noise). The methods for calculating the parameters are presented. The study was then repeated in the presence of noise and the differences noted. The models with one or two privileged directions are studied. The analysis of real data, from the Omega emitter and collected through a GEOS satellite, is then presented.
