Short summary
ULF waves can be generated by modulated HF heating in the ionospheric F region, which has long been considered for secure communication with submarines. In this paper we study the effects of background parameters on the process of ULF wave generation and propagation by using a numerical simulation. We find that wave radiation efficiency is higher in the daytime ionosphere at lower latitudes, while ground wave intensity is larger in the nighttime ionosphere with lower modulation frequency.
