Results are presented from radio transmission through the plasma near the Sun at centimeter and decimeter wavelengths conducted by the Venera 15 and Venera 16 spacecraft orbiting Venus in Mar. to Sep. 1984 during a period of moderate solar activity. The spacecraft transmitted coherent radio signals at 32 cm and 5 cm wavelength toward the Earth as Venus passed behind the Sun. The velocity of the solar wind was determined for distances of 5.5 to 100 solar radii. At 10 to 25 solar radii there is a regular singular area in which the parameters of the solar wind change sharply. The relationship between the spectral index and velocity of the heterogeneous plasma is investigated. The variation in corona expansion velocity as a function of solar activity is discussed.
