Rotation is a significant characteristic of the Sun and other stars, and it plays an important role in understanding their dynamo actions and magnetic activities. In this study, the rotation of the solar chromospheric activity is investigated from a global point of view with an over 40 yr Mgiiindex. We determined the time-varying rotational period lengths (RPLs) with the synchrosqueezed wavelet transform, which provides high temporal and frequency resolution; furthermore, we compared the RPLs with the photospheric and coronal RPLs obtained from the sunspot numbers and the 10.7 cm radio flux data. The significance of the RPLs is taken into consideration. We found that the RPLs of the chromosphere exhibit a downward trend, as do those of the photosphere and corona; in addition, their RPLs at the recent four solar maxima also show a declining trend. This suggests that the rotation of the solar atmosphere has been accelerating during the recent four solar cycles, which is inferred to be caused by the declining strength of solar activity. The variations of the solar atmospheric RPLs show periodicities of multiple harmonics of the solar cycle period, and it is modulated by the solar activity cycle.
