the normalized standard deviation of received signal intensity, used to quantify ionospheric amplitude scintillation on radio and satellite links.

In antennas and propagation, S4 scintillation index refers to the normalized standard deviation of received signal intensity, used to quantify ionospheric amplitude scintillation on radio and satellite links. This meaning comes from Briggs (1963) in Journal of Atmospheric and Terrestrial Physics.[1]
