Description

The EISCAT Mainland incoherent scatter radar system has a unique tristatic measurement capability with its two remote receivers. The full ion drift velocity vector can be calculated in the volume of intersection. The electric field can also be calculated by applying a model of the magnetic field.

The remote receivers were converted during 2012 to the 224 MHz frequency of the EISCAT VHF radar.
