Nonlinear dynamic systems modeling using Gaussian processes: Predicting ionospheric total electron content over South Africa
[1] Two different implementations of Gaussian process (GP) models are proposed to estimate the vertical total electron content (TEC) from dual frequency Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements. The model falseness of GP and neural network models are compared using daily GPS TEC data from Sutherland, South Africa, and it is shown that the proposed GP models exhibit superior model falseness....
متن کاملVariation of ionospheric slab thickness over South Africa
Ionospheric slab thickness is defined as the ratio of TEC to maximum electron density of the F-region (NmF2), proportional to the square of the F2-layer critical frequency (foF2). It is an important parameter in that it is linearly correlated with scale height of the ionosphere, which is related to electron density profile. It also reflects variation of the neutral temperature. Therefore, ionos...
متن کاملPrediction of Total Electron Content over South Africa Using Global Positioning System and Neural Networks
The Global Positioning System (GPS) makes it possible to study the dynamics of the ionosphere by supplementing ionospheric studies carried out using various techniques including ionosondes, incoherent scatter radars and low earth orbit satellites. Total electron content derived from GPS data (GPS TEC) is a key parameter characterising the ionosphere. Its time evolution provides an indication of...
متن کاملTotal Ionospheric Electron Content Calibration Using SERIES GPS Satellite Data
This article describes the current status of the Deep Space Network advanced systems research into ionospheric calibration techniques, based on Global Positioning System (GPS) data. A GPS-based calibration system is planned to replace the currently used Faraday rotation method by 1989. The SERIES receiver system used in this research determines the differential group delay of signals transmitte...
متن کاملImproved Modeling of Global Ionospheric Total Electron Content Using Prior Information
The Ionosphere Working Group of the International GNSS Service (IGS) has been a reliable source of global ionospheric maps (GIMs) since 1998. Modeling of the global ionospheric total electron content (TEC) is performed daily by several Ionosphere Associate Analysis Centers (IAACs). Four IAACs (CODE, ESA, CAS and WHU) use the spherical harmonic (SH) expansion as their primary method for modeling...
