A new ionospheric tomography model combining pixel-based and function-based models
نویسندگان
چکیده
Considering the limitations of current single pixel-based and function-based computerized ionospheric tomography (CIT) models, this paper proposes a new tomography model – COMBI, which combines these two models. COMBI model is able to reconstruct the three dimensional distribution of electron density with fewer parameters, and easy to compute, as well as very convenient to use. Through experiments with simulated data and measured data, it is verified that the new COMBI model not only can better describe refine structure of ionospheric electron density, but also is superior to these two pixel-based and function-based CIT models in application. 2013 COSPAR.

Application of Wavelet Neural Networks for Improving of Ionospheric Tomography Reconstruction over Iran
In this paper, a new method of ionospheric tomography is developed and evaluated based on the neural networks (NN). This new method is named ITNN. In this method, wavelet neural network (WNN) with particle swarm optimization (PSO) training algorithm is used to solve some of the ionospheric tomography problems. The results of ITNN method are compared with the residual minimization training neura...
متن کاملTomographic 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...
متن کاملCombining Neural Network with Genetic Algorithm for prediction of S4 Parameter using GPS measurement
The ionospheric plasma bubbles cause unpredictable changes in the ionospheric electron density. These variations in the ionospheric layer can cause a phenomenon known as the ionospheric scintillation. Ionospheric scintillation could affect the phase and amplitude of the radio signals traveling through this medium. This phenomenon occurs frequently around the magnetic equator and in low latitu...
متن کاملA New High-order Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Model Based on Deformed Linear Models
Amongst possible choices for identifying complicated processes for prediction, simulation, and approximation applications, high-order Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models are fitting tools. Although they can construct models with rather high complexity, they are not as interpretable as first-order TS fuzzy models. In this paper, we first propose to use Deformed Linear Models (DLMs) in consequence pa...
متن کاملA New Ionospheric Estimation Algorithm for SBAS Combining Kriging and Tomography
One can divide the existing ionospheric methods for SBAS in two categories: tomography and methods relying on the thin shell model. At first sight, tomography appears to be the right choice. Tomography reconstructs the three dimensional density of the ionosphere from the available measurements. However, there are several drawbacks to tomography: the system of equations to be solved is often und...
