Practice of Meteor Burst Communication

A lot of research and experiments on meteor burst communication described in the previous chapter have been done by research institutions, educational institutions, and amateur radio operators. The contents of research and experiments are roughly classified into two categories. One is to investigate the frequency and duration of meteor bursts themselves, and the other is to study data transmission using meteor bursts. This chapter introduces some experiments on meteor burst communications conducted in Japan and the method of QSO by meteor scatter communications conducted by amateur radio operators.
