Abstract Experimental results are given on an investigation of the parameters of an artificial region of disturbance (RD) of the ionosphere arising under the action on the ionosphere of strong SW radio emission (Peq ≈ 20 MW) with a frequency of 5.75 MHz. It is shown that in this case an RD is formed in the F layer of the ionosphere with ΔNe/Ne ≳ 5 · 10−2 and nonuniformities of Ne are generated or amplified. Such an RD acts as a focusing lens on probe radio waves passing through it. In the E layer of the ionosphere Ne increases by 5 · 10−2 in about 30 sec.
