The conditions are studied under which stable ion acoustic envelope solitons propagating perpendicular to the magnetic field lines can exist in the ionospheric plasma. The amplitudes, frequencies, and lengths of the waves are determined. The results obtained are compared with the experimental data. It is suggested that such solitons play an important role in both the formation of an ionization front and its motion across the magnetic field and also give rise to a fluctuation precursor in explosive ionospheric experiments.
