Auroral kilometric radiation (AKR) experiments were conducted at the HIPAS (High Power Auroral Stimulation) Observatory (64°52'19" N, 146°50'33" W) during January-March of 2008. The GPS Occultation experiment (GOX) onboard FORMOSAT3/COSMIC (F3/C) are employed to observe the ionospheric electron density during the 2008-01-21 06:52:00UT experiment. The F3/C GOX data at 07:00-08:00UT within 10- degree lat/long from the HIPAS on the experiment day and 1-15 days before and after are isolated. A comparison between the experiment day and the associated medians of its 1-15 day before/after shows that the AKR experiment results in a pronounced ionospheric electron density cavity on 21 January 2008. Meanwhile, an earthquake was occurred at Sichuan, China (30.986° N, 103.364° E, Depth 19km) at 06:28:01UT on 12 May 2008.The F3/C GOX data show that ionospheric electron densities above the forthcoming epicenter anomalously decrease of about 30-40% in the afternoon period (13:00-16:00UT) of day 6 to 4 and in the late evening period of 3-5 day before the earthquake.
