Abstract

The character and features of dispersion distortions of an ultrashort radio pulse in the form of a sinusoidal train propagating along the spacecraft-Earth interplanetary path are theoretically analyzed. It is established that the instantaneous field oscillation frequency in the distorted pulse is completely determined by the value of the total electron content of the path. It is shown that, theoretically, one of the main characteristics of the solar wind can be measured from the frequency of the detected signal.
