Abstract

       The significance and difficulties of instrumental research on density of the upper atmosphere (ionosphere) such as the composition are discussed. Coupling the density and the ionic composition sensor for high atmosphere, mounted on nanosatellites, are suggested as a solution to these issues. A rough idea for a compact combined converter of the higher atmospheric layers' density and ionic composition is provided. The primary characteristics of the sensor were established based on modeling the ionization processes in the working region of the vacuum transducer and the electron-ion trap.
