IONOSPHERIC RESEARCH USING SATELLITES.

Abstract

Unmodulated signals from Explorer 22 on 20, 40 and 41 Mc/s were recorded at three places in Denmark and Greenland. Both Faraday rotation and scintillation phenomena are very frequent in the records, so that ionospheric irregularities and total electron density can be studied in detail. The report presents a review of the activity in this respect. (Author)
