Abstract

A nonlinear theory of anomalous absorption of powerful radio waves on small scale irregularities in the ionosphere is constructed. Peculiarities of the absorption near the third electron gyrofrequency are investigated and discussed. The theory is shown to be in agreement with observations. The existence of a maximum in the probe wave absorption is predicted. Its dependence on the shift between the probe wave frequency and the pump wave frequency is determined.
