International audience The EISCAT UHF radar system was used to study the characteristics of E-region coherent backscatter at very large magnetic aspect angles (5?11°). Data taken using 60 ?s pulses during elevation scans through horizontally uniform backscatter permitted the use of inversion techniq...
