Soviet Micropulsations Research for Possible Communications Application

Abstract

The report reviews the fundamentals of high frequency geomagnetic micropulsations in the region of the electromagnetic spectrum from about 1-5 Hz. It then discusses, by reviewing the open literature, the large body of research performed in this discipline by Soviet scientists. Conclusions are not made as to whether or not the results of these investigations are, in fact, being applied towards functional communications systems. It is, however, demonstrated that the Soviet research is applicable and necessary to the possible future use of micropulsation modes for communications purposes.
