Measurement of the amplitude and phase fluctuation spectrum of satellite signals in the case of the action of high-power radio waves on the ionosphere
Abstract
Artificial ionospheric irregularities produced by high-power radio-frequency heating were investigated by measuring signals from NNSSA satellites at the coherent frequencies 150 and 400 MHz. Spectral processing of the data indicates the existence of two spectrum types of artificial irregularities excited by high-power short waves: (1) a spectrum with a monotonic power dependence and (2) a spectrum with a peak in the 0.8-2 km scale range.
