The possibility of high-field Josephson magnetic resonance (HFJMR) in high-T c superconductors (HTSCs) is theoretically demonstrated. The HFJMR is caused by the penetration of Abrikosov vortices into the grains in fields within H c1 ≤H<Hx (where H c1 is the first critical field and Hx is the field corresponding to vortex separation from pinning centers in the grains). The signals from microwave absorption is dependent on the ratio of grain sizes that produces junction, the anisotropy and the intergrain coupling strength. These properties can be used for investigations of HTSC macrostructures and a vortex matter.
