Animation: Ionized and neutral particles as well as free electrons that permit long distance communication. free electrons reflect radio energy. Radio waves penetrate the ionosphere. A scientist at the Ionosonde model C4 to measure electron density variations. Electron density model on the monitor. Two Oxygen atoms. An electron detaches and becomes a free electron. Radio waves pass by, the electron and waves oscillate and scatter energy. Animation: Need to excite electrons sufficiently so that their energy radiated can be detected from the ground. The process requires a powerful transmitter, large antenna, and a sensitive receiver.
