The characteristics of the infrasound station of the Institute of Solar and Terrestrial Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Siberian Branch, Irkutsk, which registered the effect of the meteoroid explosion in the atmosphere, are also described. The shape of the infrasound signal from the Chelyabinsk meteoroid is presented and its parameters are discussed.
