Wakefield oscillations created by the ion wakefield existing below a dust particle within the plasma sheath generated above a powered lower electrode in a GEC rf reference cell carry information about the plasma sheath, the dust particle charge and the speed of the streaming ions. An experimental method to investigate such wakefield oscillations is discussed.
