This is an introduction to the ionosphere. It addresses the support of ionosphere for HF radio propagation under quiet and disturbed conditions, and explains some of the problems faced by the HF communicator in terms of changes to the ionosphere and the solar-terrestrial environment.

A Complete Reference for the 21st Century Until recently, much of the communications technology in the former Eastern bloc countries was largely unknown. Due to the historically competitive nature of East/West relations, scientific groups operated independently, without the benefit of open communication on theoretical framework

"Bouncing Signals" dives into the fascinating world of long-distance radio communication using skywaves. These signals bounce off the ionosphere, Earth's invisible layer charged with particles. The book explains how this ionosphere acts like a mirror, reflecting radio waves back to Earth, allowing signals to travel far beyond the horizon. You'll also learn about ionospheric sounding, a technique to understand the ever-changing ionosphere and predict how well your radio signals will bounce. Whether you're a ham radio operator, a radio enthusiast, or just curious about how long-distance radio works, "Bouncing Signals" will guide you through the science and practical applications of skywave propagation.

This book is concerned with the ionosphere and the magnetosphere, and the theory of their effect on radio waves. It includes accounts of some mathematical topics now widely used in this study, particularly W. K. B. approximations, Airy integral functions and integration by steepest descents. The subject is divided into ray theory and full wave theory. Ray theory is useful for high frequencies when the ionosphere is treated as a horizonally stratified medium. The discussion of the magnetosphere, whose structure is more complicated, includes an account of whistlers and ion cyclotron whistlers. The book has been planned both for final year undergraduates and as a reference book for research. It is suitable as a course book on radio propagation for students of physics or electrical engineering or mathematics. Some of the topics are presented from an elementary viewpoint so as to help undergraduates new to the subject. The later parts are more advanced. Because the subject is so large and has seen many important recent advances, some topics have had to be treated briefly, but there is a full bibliography with about 600 references.
