Summary :

A typical event of quasi-periodic scintillations measured simultaneously at 1.5 GHz and 4 GHz is presented. Moreover, the probable electron density and spatial scale of irregularities in the ionosphere necessary for producing such a phenomenon are evaluated. Results indicate that estimated electron density at the center of a columnar irregularity assumed in the ionospheric E- or F-region ranges from 2 1012 to 2 1013(m-3), the value of which represents a level several to several hundred times as high as the average ionospheric electron density. In addition, such irregularities must have small effecctive radii of 100 to 300 meters.
