Abstract

The propagation of an ultrawideband electromagnetic signal in the ionosphere—a plasma medium with spatially nonuniform characteristics—is studied analytically in the high-frequency approximation. The effect of the plasma dielectric properties and angular divergence on the shape and frequency spectrum of the propagating signal is investigated. It is shown that the spectral energy density of the signal is preserved if collisions of ionospheric plasma electrons are neglected.
