Abstract
The author investigates effect on the field of a point source in a plane impedance waveguide of an irregularity in the form of spherical surface that projects from (or is embedded into) the plane of the, ionospheric wall of the waveguide. In a scalar approximation, the problem is reduced to a two-dimensional integral equation over the surface of the irregularity. A solution is constructed by successive approximations, for which the solution of the problem for a regular impedance waveguide is used as the initial approximation. Numerical results are given for estimation of the effect of a local ionospheric irregularity on the field of an electric dipole in the earth-ionosphere waveguide.
