HF/VHF Radar Backscatter by Artificial Small-Scale Ionospheric Turbulence.

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking Institute of Radio Astronomy (RIAN) as follows: The contractor shall carry out a program of study of artificial small-scale turbulence (ASST) generated in the ionosphere by the high-power transmitter operated by the Radiophysical Research Institute at Nizhny Novgorod, Russia. A primary goal of the investigations will be to determine how the various processes are affected by changes in the exciting source field of the high-power HF wave.
