Using the bicharacteristics method, mathematical modeling of the polarization parameters of P-band radio waves in the Earth’s ionosphere in the vicinity of the equatorial anomaly along the meridian path was carried out. The influence of the ionosphere on the phase deviation and the angle of the Faraday rotation during the passage of the spacecraft is studied taking into account changes in the magnitude and orientation of the Earth’s magnetic field.
