Theory of intense radio waves in an underdense ionosphere application to solar power satellite transmissions. Final report.

Theory of intense radio waves in an underdense ionosphere [electronic resource] : application to solar power satellite transmissions. Final report.

The instabilities in the F-region plasma are investigated that can be created by the passage of a solar power satellite beam (2.45 Ghz frequency, at a power flux of 23 mW/cm/sup 2/) at frequencies much higher than the cut-off plasma frequency of the ionosphere. The threshold geometry and frequency a...
