  • Abstract
    This paper describes the latitude, altitude, azimuth and polarization angle dependence of scattering of radio waves in the ionosphere. The anisotropic behaviour which arises due to the presence of the geomagnetic field has been taken into account. The formula obtained for scattering cross-section may be verified experimentally and the importance of the geomagnetic field in the production of anisotropy may then be analysed.
