Initial Results of Meteor Wind with Langfang Medium Frequency Radar
Atmosphere, 2020 We conducted meteor observations during the Leonid meteor shower on 16 November 2017 and 17 November 2018 with Langfang medium frequency (MF) radar (116° E, 40° N). This was the first nighttime meteor observation by MF radar in mid-latitude China.

The sporadic radiant and distribution of meteors in the atmosphere as observed by VHF radar at Arctic, Antarctic and equatorial latitudes [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2009 Results are presented of a study of the temporal and spatial variability in meteor count rate observations from three VHF meteor radars. These radar are located in the Arctic (at Esrange, 68° N), in the Antarctic (at Rothera, 68° S) and near ...

Comparison between the Mesospheric Winds Observed by Two Collocated Meteor Radars at Low Latitudes
Remote Sensing, 2022 This study compares the hourly mesospheric horizontal winds observed by two collocated and independent low-latitude meteor radars operating at 37.5 MHz and 53.1 MHz in Kunming, China (25.6°N, 103.8°E). Upon analyzing simultaneously detected meteor echoes,

Journal of geomagnetism and geoelectricity, 1991 Previous measurements of the heights of radio meteors using VHF radars have distributions peaking at around 95km with few meteors detected above 105km. Using HF radars (frequencies 2 and 6MHz) near Adelaide, South Australia, we have now shown that there are many more meteors than previously believed ablating at above 100km, with the peak being at 110 ...
