Insignificant geomagnetic disturbances, which originated during the experimental injection of high-power radio pulses into the magnetosphere-ionosphere system with the help of an HF transmitter of the Sura heating facility, are considered. The experiment was performed at 1840-1900 UT on October 2, 2007 (˜2100 MLT) at geomagnetic latitudes close to the zone of generation of the current wedge westward branch, responsible for geomagnetic substorms. The series of two magnetic microsubstorms, with a sudden initial pulse and an insignificant delay relative to the facility switching, was observed at 1840-2000 UT. A disturbance was registered at many stations in the Northern Hemisphere as a global event. The equivalent ionospheric current system of an initial pulse was similar to such a system of the westward auroral surge and had an intensity maximum at Karpogory magnetic observatory, which is the closest station to the Sura facility. Under the conditions of a quiet solar wind and low planetary geomagnetic activity, the AE auroral index correlated with the interplanetary medium parameters (the correlation coefficient reached 0.65) at 1710-2000 UT. It has been confirmed that an initial geomagnetic pulse is generated as a result of radiowave injection. The arguments for and against the generation of microsubstorms due to stimulated precipitation of magnetospheric electrons, as well as the assumption that the geoeffective impact of the interplanetary medium is intensified during the injection of high-power radiowaves near the zone where the westward branch of the current wedge of magnetospheric substorms is generated, are considered.
