| description | The problems of reflection and transmission of a whistler wave incident in
the nighttime ionosphere from above are considered. Numerical solution of the
wave equations for a typical condition of the lower ionosphere is found. The
solution area comprises both the region of strong wave refraction and a sharp
boundary of the nighttime ionosphere (∼ 100 km). The energy reflection
coefficient and horizontal wave magnetic field on the ground surface are
calculated. The results obtained are important for analysis of the extremely
low-frequency and very low-frequency (ELF–VLF) emission phenomena observed from both the satellites and
the ground-based observatories. |
