Proposed experimental studies for assessing ionospheric perturbations on SPS uplinking pilot beam signalEvidence is presented for the occurrence of natural irregularities at midlatitude based on scintillation measurements by the use of VHF and GHz transmission from geostationary satellites, and from satellite in-situ measurements. An effort to determine the phase and intensity scintillation effects during ionospheric heating is described along with proposed measurements related to the detection, lifetimes, and drift of artificial irregularities generated by ionospheric heating in the underdense mode.
