In this paper there is investigated the propagation of radio waves in a non-homogeneous ionized atmosphere with a dispersion of ionization obtained as a result of recent investigations into the structure of the ionosphere.

On the basis of the wave treatment of the problem, relations were found for the electric field intensity, expressed as Airy functions; and the results were compared with the approximate solution by geometric optics.
