摘要
Radar echoes intensity of polar mesosphere summer echoes（PMSE） is greatly affected by the temperature of dusty plasma and the frequency of electromagnetic wave about the radar.In this paper,a new method is developed to explain the active experiment results of PMSE.The theory of wave propagation in a layered media is used to study the propagation characteristics of an electromagnetic wave at different electron temperatures.The simulation results show that the variation tendency of the reflected power fraction almost agrees with the results observed by radar in the European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association（EISCAT）.The radar echoes intensity of PMSE greatly decreases with the increase of the radio frequency and the enhancement of the electron temperature.
