The Earth’s auroral region and its close neighbourhood is the origin of strong radio emissions caused by complex physical plasma processes. Among them we can list auroral hiss, auroral roar, auroral medium frequency (MF) burst, and auroral kilometric radiation (AKR). Analysis of such emissions can provide information about magnetospheric structure and dynamics. In this work we present selected cases of Earth’s AKR-like radio emissions observed by RELEC and mission at the top side ionosphere leyers. The emissions are seen at frequencies of the order of hundreds of kHz in the ionosphere, just below the auroral oval and can be observed not only in disturbed geomagnetic conditions, but also during quiet periods. The maximum occurrence is at ∼ 75 ◦ invariant latitude and can have extent up to ∼ 11 ◦ in invariant latitude. |
