Effect of HF emission of the topside sounder transmitter aboard the COSMOS-1809 satellite on the ionospheric plasma
Abstract
The experiment on investigation of effect of the HF emission (300 W) by the dipole antenna on the ionospheric plasma was carried out onboard the COSMOS-1809 satellite (1987). The sounder accelerated particles (SAP) at the electron cyclotron harmonics n . omega_ce and in the frequency region of antenna resonance were detected by the charged particle spectrometer.
