| Popis: | We present the results of complex measurements of characteristics of HF radio signals scattered by artificial small-scale irregularities by means of oblique sounding using a chirp signal and by direction finding. On the basis of comparison of the experimental data and the calculations of aspect scattering of radio waves, the conclusion on the patch structure of an artificially disturbed ionosphere filled with small-scale field-aligned irregularities is drawn. The sizes of the patches amount to several ten kilometers, and they are separated by 100 or more kilometers. The drift speed of irregularities in the direction of the scattering vector in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field is determined for several patches. |
