Abstract

Some effects that ionosphere produces on radio signals that traverse it are mentioned. Moreover, the characteristics of the equatorial and low latitude ionosphere are described because it is a region where the communication and navigation satellite systems are strong affected. Particularly, studies on scintillations of satellite signals received at ground are described. The results obtained at Tucumán (26.9° S, 294.6° E) which could be a contribution to develop a system to predict the occurrence of ionospheric irregularities that produce scintillations are also shown.
