T1 INVESTIGATIONS OF THE RESPONSE OF MID-LATITUDE IONOSPHERIC D-REGION TO POWER ATMOSPHERIC FRONT PASSAGE JF Telecommunications and Radio Engineering JO TRE YR 2014 FD 2014-08-01 VO 73 IS 12 SP 1117 OP 1123 K1 atmospheric front K1 height and time variations of the amplitudes of partially reflected signals and radio noise K1 electron concentration K1 infrasonic waves, mid-latitude ionospheric D-region AB It was experimentally found that almost in half of cases of atmospheric front (AF) passages quasi-periodic changes in height and time variations of amplitudes of the partially reflected (PR) signals and radio noise as well as electron concentration in the D-region took place for tens of minutes due to the passage of infrasonic waves unlike during the periods before and after the passage. It was also determined that in the lower part of the mid-latitude D-region (heights of z < 80 km) the values of electron concentration appeared to be underestimated by a factor of 1.2...2.2 times as compared to control days. The mechanism of such an drop in magnitude N(z,t) can be explained by the effect of the tropospheric disturbance with the help of a complicated series performed both via the dynamic channel and via the channel of small components redistribution.
