Abstract

A rectangular radio pulse formed on the basis of the Barker code and transmitted over a long-distance ionospheric path is considered. The character of signal distortions and the rate of their increase are analyzed. The determining effect of the initial duration and carrier frequency of the signal on its current characteristics is revealed. For the decameter wavelength band, it is shown, that, when the parameters of the problem vary within a wide range, the autocorrelation function of a Barker signal is deformed, its center maximum being preserved and substantially spread.
