About this ebook

The hypothesis is advanced that a high percentage of ionospheric scintillation is a distortion of a regular cyclic type of fading seen occasionally on chart recordings of HF and VHF radio frequency signals that have penetrated the ionosphere. Analysis of satellite signals containing this special type of anomaly leads to a better understanding of ionospheric scintillation in general. The paper shows how many properties of normal scintillation are consistent with the two ray interference formula derived for the more orderly pattern. As an illustration we have included the analysis of an ionospheric irregularity appearing over Thule that provides height and electron density measurements. (Author).
