Abstract: 
Based on observational data obtained in September 2001 using RT-22 CrAO on frequency channels 8.6 and 15.4 GHz, quasi-periodic variations of microwave radiation from active regions of the Sun with periods T<10 min are investigated using wavelet analysis. It was found that oscillations with T≈3 min have the largest amplitude, while quasiperiodic variations with T<10 s were suppressed. Oscillations of radiation with T=10 ... 40 s, which are associated with disturbances of the Alfven type in the upper atmosphere of the Sun, are detected.
