Application of correlation method of reception of direct and reflected cosmic radiation to study of plasmaspheres of planet and distribution of radiation brightness

An analysis is presented of reception of a mixture of direct and reflected low frequency background cosmic radiation by an autocorrelation method. The analysis is applied to investigation of the plasmaspheres of the Moon and the planets, as well as the distribution of radiation brightness over the celestial sphere. Correlation processing of the direct and reflected low frequency background cosmic radiation signals received by spacecraft orbiting the Moon or planets can be used to determine the distribution of electron concentration in the plasma in the upper ionosphere and to study the distribution of the brightness of the low frequency background over the celestial sphere.
