Abstract

On December 14, 2021, experimental investigations on radar detection of Geminid show meteors were carried out on the basis of the scientific association EISCAT. Researchers thought that detection efficiency could be improved by artificial modification of the ionosphere. To do that, radiation of the ionosphere by a powerful heating wave was realized on EISCAT heating facility. We recorded the scattered heating wave parameters using the SDR receiver network. That allowed us to detect the features of plasma swirl motion and unusual structure of velocity distribution, which are likely to be determined by meteor passage though the region of active impact on the ionosphere.
