The radio emission of solar flares at decimeter wavelengths includes a variety of emission processes of a plasma thought to have a high beta. Very intense coherent emissions are observed at frequencies smaller than about 9 GHz. They are caused by plasma instabilities driving various wave modes that in turn may emit observable radio waves. Particularly important are type III bursts, caused by electron beams exciting Langmuir waves. Their sources may be used to trace the path of the electrons back in the corona to the acceleration region. Less known are radio emissions from trapped electrons driving loss-cone unstable waves, suspected for type IV bursts. These types of coherent radio emission give clues on the geometry and plasma parameters near the acceleration region.
