AB Equations of quasi-isotropic approximation of geometric optics are applied to the analysis of the limiting polarization of radio waves passing through Earth's ionosphere. The calculations of the polarization are compared with the results of magneto-ionic theory. The correlation between the limiting polarization of characteristic waves and the parameters of a quasi-isotropic layer is found. This allows one to solve the inverse problem for determining the electron density (<i>D, E</i> layers) and the polarization of the transmitting antenna.
