Strong turbulence effects in artificially disturbed ionosphere Original Research Article

The theoretical and experimental study of strong turbulence effects arising in the ionospheric plasma under the action of powerful radio waves is presented. The theoretical results are obtained by the numerical solution of nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NSE) with driven extension in inhomogeneous plasma, the experimental ones by means of artificial ionospheric turbulence sounding by probing radio pulses. The qualitative agreement of theoretical and experimental results is obtained.
