Reconstruction of the Image of Ionospheric Electron Density Profile Using Computerized Tomography-A Preliminary Result.

Tomographic Reconstruction of the Ionospheric Electron Density in term of Wavelets

Ionospheric tomography is a method to investigate the ionospheric electron density in two or three dimensions. In this study, the function-based tomographic technique has been used for regional reconstruction of a 3D tomographic model of the ionospheric electron density using the GPS measurements of the Iranian Permanent GPS Network. Two-dimensional Haar wavelets and empirical orthogonal functi...

Multiresolution Tomography of Ionospheric Electron Density

Computerized Ionospheric Tomography

ith the transition to the Global Positioning System, Transit has been decommissioned, after having served well for the Fleet. A new system, the Navy Ionospheric Monitoring System, was established using Transit satellites. This article examines the application of the new system to the field of computerized ionospheric tomography. (

Topside ionospheric vertical electron density profile reconstruction using GPS and ionosonde data: possibilities for South Africa

Successful empirical modeling of the topside ionosphere relies on the availability of good quality measured data. The Alouette, ISIS and Intercosmos-19 satellite missions provided large amounts of topside sounder data, but with limited coverage of relevant geophysical conditions (e.g., geographic location, diurnal, seasonal and solar activity) by each individual mission. Recently, methods for i...

Tomography of the ionospheric electron density with geostatistical inversion

In relation to satellite applications like global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) and remote sensing, the electron density distribution of the ionosphere has significant influence on trans-ionospheric radio signal propagation. In this paper, we develop a novel ionospheric tomography approach providing the estimation of the electron density’s spatial covariance and based on a best linear unb...
