Aims: We consider magnetoacoustic oscillations in a gravitationally stratified solar corona, that are triggered by an initial pulse in the vertical component of velocity launched from various altitudes of the solar atmosphere. Methods: We numerically solve two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic equations for an ideal plasma to determine the spatial and temporal signatures of excited oscillations. Results: Our numerical results reveal that few-min oscillations are effectively excited by the initial velocity pulses and that their waveperiods depend on the vertical location and amplitude of the pulse. Conclusions: The building block of this scenario consists of a one-dimensional rebound shock model.
