Abstract: Аннотация. В ближайшие годы в районе Иркут-ска планируется строительство радара, сочетающего в себе возможности радаров некогерентного рассея-ния (НР) и мезосферно-стратосферно-тропосферных радаров (МСТ) [Жеребцов и др., 2011]. Радар НР-МСТ представляет собой фазированную решетку, состоя-щую из двух разнесенных антенных полотен, с циф-ровой многоканальной приемной системой, позво-ляющей проводить детальную пространственно-временную обработку сигнала обратного рассеяния. Показаны характеристики, конфигурация и … Show more

“…IISR experience has provided essential skills of understanding the upper atmosphere and the near-Earth space; we were also able to reveal advantages both of the method itself and of the radar main equipment employed. This experience will be used to construct a new promising IS-MST radar (Potekhin et al, 2016), which is now being designed as a part of the major Russian scientific infrastructure project "National Heliogeophysical Complex of the Russian Academy of Science" (http://en.iszf.irk.ru/images/0/01/ Booklet_en.pdf, last access: 13 August 2019). We expect the new IS-MST radar to be put into operation before 2023.…”

Abstract. The article focuses on the history of ionospheric research using the incoherent scatter method at the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics and development of the only incoherent scatter radar in Russia, which is located near Irkutsk. It describes the radar features and the current situation of research at the Irkutsk Incoherent Scatter Radar (IISR). Operating modes and types of measurements of the radar are specified. There is a brief description of the original measurement techniques that were developed considering the IISR features such as the frequency principle of scanning and receiving of one linear polarization of a scattered signal. The main feature of the IISR is the possibility of obtaining absolute values of the ionospheric plasma electron density. The automatic method for constructing the electron density vertical profile is based on registration of vertical profiles of a rotation phase of the polarization plane of a scattered signal. The method does not require calibration with additional facilities.

The IS-MST radar, as the name implies, combines two different methods for studying the atmosphere using a backscatter signal. Turbulent fluctuations of the medium cause scattering in the mesosphere—stratosphere—troposphere (MST). In the upper atmosphere, incoherent scatter (IS) appears in ionospheric plasma. Special-purpose instruments have been built before such that measurements in one of these modes were the most effective. MST radars were utilized for studying wave activity in the lower and middle atmosphere; the IS radar, for ionospheric research. Nowadays, however, for a comprehensive investigation of atmospheric phenomena, it is necessary to have an idea of processes in all atmospheric layers and near-Earth space. The radar, which combines capabilities of IS and MST measurements, will be able to cover layers from the troposphere to the plasmosphere and to study processes of energy transfer from the lower and middle atmosphere to the ionosphere as well as the interaction of the magnetosphere with the upper atmosphere. Apart from atmospheric research, the radar will allow us to track spacecraft and space debris, determining precise coordinate characteristics. The antenna system is also suitable for radio astronomical observations. In the paper, we provide justification for the 154–162 MHz frequency range and discuss technical solutions of the IS-MST radar project and basic operating modes. In addition, we estimate radar diagnostic capabilities for different types of measurements.

The process of creating modern early warning radar stations is characterized by minimizing the cost and time of work at the same time by reducing the risks associated with the use of new technical solutions. The article considers a variant of a typical representation of a network schedule for creating an early warning radar stations. It is noted that the schedule drawn up in this way is some approximation to the actual work being performed, as a result of which the necessary design decisions to adjust the process of creating early warning radar stations are taken late. The use of a network model is proposed for effective management of the radar creation process and the formation of network schedules for both individual stages and the entire project as a whole. Based on the analysis of a unified range of early warning radar stations, it is noted that the network model for reducing the risks of creating a radar should take into account both the multivariance of the tasks to be solved and the uncertainty of the parameters of the work performed. The main features of the proposed model are considered. The implementation of the proposed network model in the design of radar design for complex atmospheric research is shown as an example. During the research, several variants of radar implementation were considered and the optimal one was selected according to the proposed criteria.
