Abstract

Near-Earth and space environments, the ionosphere and magnetosphere, were and remain the main channel of radio wave propagation. These environments significantly affect the propagation of radio waves up to Terahertz. Radio waves of these ranges are used in solving the tasks of telecommunications, radar, radio navigation, radio astronomy and radiophysical monitoring of the state of near-earth and space environments, including electronic warfare. It is the atmosphere and ionosphere that limit the potential qualitative indicators of radio engineering systems that are used in solving the above problems in various environments. The magnitude of radiophysical effects depends significantly on the state of the atmospheric-ionospheric-magnetospheric radio channel. The parameters of the radio channel can significantly change under the influence of powerful sources of energy release of natural and man-made origin, which leads to a contradiction that requires permission.
