The magnetic network is a typical magnetic structure of the quiet Sun. Investigating its cycle dependence is crucial for understanding its evolution. We aim to identify and analyze the spatial scales of the magnetic network within magnetic power spectra derived from high-resolution Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO)/Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) and Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO)/ Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) synoptic magnetograms. The data sets cover the entirety of solar cycles 23, 24, and part of cycle 25. We find that the identified magnetic network sizes identified range from 26 Mm to 41 Mm. There seems to be no obvious dependence on the solar cycle, and the sizes are distributed uniformly within the identification range.
