Near-infrared (0.7-1.0 μm) observations of solar brightness oscillations were performed in 1983-1991 at the Crimean Solar Tower with the use of two (16 × 16 and 32 × 32) photodiode arrays. In 1991 new observations of p-modes were made simultaneously in two spectral ranges, near 0.7 and 1.0 μm. The data is analysed to check for the presence of solar variation with the 160-min period. It is found that the mean relative amplitude for the 160-min solar irradiance variation at 0.73 - 1.65 μm wavelengths, ~ 2 × 10–6, is much lower than the upper limits set by the ACRIM and IPHIR space experiments.
