Abstract

The solar wind is an uninterrupted outflow of magnetized plasma from the solar corona that reaches interplanetary space and accumulates in the earth's outer atmosphere disturbing the navigation and communication systems. Incoming solar winds move across in the space, form waves during times of robust solar activity. These waves undergo modification in Earth's atmospheric and interfere with communication signal. Navi-Aid Airport frequency communication data, together with ACE Satellite Electron and Proton data, have been collected for the research work that is being presented. The modulation of waves has been achieved via suitable equations, and the findings have shown that solar wind contributes and modifies earth communication signals and may trigger the ground wave

guide region's communication signal transmission to be disrupted.
