The research objective is to investigate the influences of solar activity variation to the solar ultraviolet (UV - A and UV - bA) irradiance variation on the earth surface which was observed from LAPAN - Bandung (6,9 S; 107,6 E) from May 1992 to December 1997. By taking the moving average of 12 months of monthly average solar ultraviolet irradiance , it were found that solar UV - B irradiance matched of 12 months moving average of 12 months of solar activity variation (F10,7 cm solar radio flux); the decreasing of solar activity level during the decreasing phase of 22 solar cycle at an average rate of 16,41% per year, following by decreasing amount of solar UV - B irradiance at an average rate 10,54% per year for the time period. In contrast, the decreasing of solar UV - A irradiance, following by increasing of solar UV - A irradiance at an average rate of 7,48% per year for the time period of observation. By using linear regression analysis, it was obtained a positive correlation between the solar flux UV - B irradiance and the F10,7 cm solar radio flux which is represented by: Solar flux UV - B irradiance [Watt/m2] = 0.055 F10,7 cm solar radio flux [SFU] + 0,0778, with the correlation coefficient of 0,80. In contrast, by assumption that solar activity also effects the solar UV - A irradiance, it was obtained a negative correlation between the solar UV - A irradiance and the F10,7 cm solar radio flux which is represented by: Solar flux UV - A irradiance [Watt/m2] = 0.037 F10,7 cm solar radio flux [SFU] + 15,008, with the negative correlation coefficient of -0,80.
