| Abstract(in English) | The lower ionosphere is of practical interest because of its effect on commercial radio communication, navigation, and broadcast services. The electron density is of primary interest in this region because the high ion-neutral collision frequencies result in radio wave absorption. Previous studies have examined the electron density profile and structure of the ionosphere using measurements from rockets and satellites. It is difficult to understand the plasma density structure in the lower ionospheric region. To farther study the structure of the lower ionosphere, we measure the very low electron densities that occur at altitudes from 50 km to 90 km using the partial and perfect reflection characteristics of electromagnetic waves. And two electrodes with positive and negative biases will be located on the rocket nose cone to measure the relative density of electrons and ions, respectively, along the rocket trajectory. |
