INVESTIGATION OF SATELLITE-RELATED IONOSPHERIC ANOMALIES

Abstract

An investigation of satellite-related ionospheric anomalies has been conducted. Monitoring results of CW reflected waves and a back-scatter radar are discussed with a review of similar experiments and related reports. Results of this investigation indicate that anomalies occur too frequently to enable the detection of satellite ionization effects with any degree of confidence. A bibliography of related works is included and a method of obtaining transmission signatures is described. (Author)
