Experimental analysis was performed using multiplicative algebraic reconstruction technique (MART) to map the ionosphere over Brazil. Code and phase observations from the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) together with the international reference ionosphere (IRI) enabled the estimation of ionospheric profiles and total electron content (TEC) over the entire region. Twenty-four days of data collected from existing ground-based GNSS receivers during the recent solar maximum period were used to analyze the performance of the MART algorithm. The results were compared with four ionosondes. It was demonstrated that MART estimated the electron density peak with the same degree of accuracy as the IRI model in regions with appropriate geometrical coverage by GNSS receivers for tomographic reconstruction. In addition, the slant TEC, as estimated with MART, presented lower root-mean-square error than the TEC calculated by ionospheric maps available from the International GNSS Service (IGS). Furthermore, the daily variations of the ionosphere were better represented with the algebraic techniques, compared to the IRI model and IGS maps, enabling a correlation of the elevation of the ionosphere at higher altitudes with the equatorial ionization anomaly intensification. The tomographic representations also enabled the detection of high vertical gradients at the same instants in which ionospheric irregularities were evident. 相似文献

The in situ measurements of electron contents from GRACE K-band (dual-frequency) ranging system and CHAMP planar Langmuir
probe were used to validate the international reference ionosphere (IRI) models. The comparison using measurements from year
2003 to 2007 shows a general agreement between data and the model outputs. The improvement in the newer IRI model (IRI-2007)
is evident with the measurements from the GRACE satellites orbiting at the higher altitude. We present the comparison between
the models and data comprehensively for various cases in solar activity, local time, season, and latitude. The IRI models
do not well predict the electron density in the years 2006 and later, when the solar activity is extremely low. The IRI models
generally overestimate the electron density during local winter while they underestimate during local summer. In the equatorial
region, the large difference at local sunrise lasts for all years and all seasons. The IRI models do not perform well in predicting
the anomaly in the polar region such as the Weddell Sea Anomaly. These discrepancies are likely due to smoothed (12-month
averaged) solar activity indices used in the IRI models and due to insufficient spherical harmonic representation not able
to capture small spatial scales. In near future, further improvement on the IRI models is expected by assimilating those in
situ satellite data by implementing higher resolution (spatial and temporal) parameterizations. 相似文献

LEO卫星单频精密定轨电离层模型改进算法 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
电离层延迟的有效改正是LEO卫星单频精密定轨的关键所在。目前主要采用电离层比例因子法进行LEO卫星电离层延迟改正,但该方法在电子密度峰值高度确定时未考虑太阳活动、经纬度、昼夜变化、季节等因素的影响。IRI2012模型虽然考虑了上述因素对电子密度峰值高度的影响,但因其与电离层薄层高度选择的标准不一致,通常它们之间存在系统性偏差而无法直接使用。为此本文提出将电离层薄层高度作为约束条件对IRI2012模型确定的电子密度峰值高度的均值进行参数约束估计,得到一种改进的电离层模型算法,并利用Swarm卫星GPS观测数据对其进行验证。结果表明:改进的电离层模型对Swarm卫星径向、切向和法向定轨精度均有不同程度的提高,尤其对轨道径向和法向精度改善最为明显,分别提高了31.6%和32.0%;同时较大幅度地降低了轨道的系统性偏差,尤其是在径向和法向,分别平均降低了65.0%和54.7%。 相似文献

Combination of different space-geodetic observations for regional ionosphere modeling 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1

Most of the space-geodetic observation techniques can be used for modeling the distribution of free electrons in the Earth’s
ionosphere. By combining different techniques one can take advantage of their different spatial and temporal distributions
as well as their different observation characteristics and sensitivities concerning ionospheric parameter estimation. The
present publication introduces a procedure for multi-dimensional ionospheric modeling. The model consists of a given reference
part and an unknown correction part expanded in terms of B-spline functions. This approach is used to compute regional models
of Vertical Total Electron Content (VTEC) based on the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI 2007) and GPS observations
from terrestrial Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) reference stations, radio occultation data from Low Earth Orbiters
(LEOs), dual-frequency radar altimetry measurements, and data obtained by Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI). The approach
overcomes deficiencies in the climatological IRI model and reaches the same level of accuracy than GNSS-based VTEC maps from
IGS. In areas without GNSS observations (e.g., over the oceans) radio occultations and altimetry provide valuable measurements
and further improve the VTEC maps. Moreover, the approach supplies information on the offsets between different observation
techniques as well as on their different sensitivity for ionosphere modeling. Altogether, the present procedure helps to derive
improved ionospheric corrections (e.g., for one-frequency radar altimeters) and at the same time it improves our knowledge
on the Earth’s ionosphere. 相似文献

An alternative approach to the traditionally employed method is proposed for treating the ionospheric range errors in transionospheric propagation such as for GNSS positioning or satellite-borne SAR. It enables the effects due to horizontal gradients of electron density (as well as vertical gradients) in the ionosphere to be explicitly accounted for. By contrast with many previous treatments, where the expansion of the solution for the phase advance is represented as the series in the inverse frequency powers and the main term of the expansion corresponds to the true line-of-sight distance from the transmitter to the receiver, in the alternative technique the zero-order term is the rigorous solution for a spherically layered ionosphere with any given vertical electron density profile. The first-order term represents the effects due to the horizontal gradients of the electron density of the ionosphere, and the second-order correction appears to be negligibly small for any reasonable parameters of the path of propagation and its geometry for VHF/UHF frequencies. Additionally, an “effective” spherically symmetric model of the ionosphere has been introduced, which accounts for the major contribution of the horizontal gradients of the ionosphere and provides very high accuracy in calculations of the phase advance. 相似文献

GPS observations of the ionospheric F2-layer behavior during the 20th November 2003 geomagnetic storm over South Korea 总被引：4，自引：1，他引：3
The ionospheric F2-layer peak density (NmF2) and its height (hmF2) are of great influence on the shape of the ionospheric
electron density profile Ne (h) and may be indicative of other physical processes within the ionosphere, especially those
due to geomagnetic storms. Such parameters are often estimated using models such as the semiempirical international reference
ionosphere (IRI) models or are measured using moderately priced to expensive instrumentation, such as ionosondes or incoherent
scatter radars. Global positioning system (GPS) observations have become a powerful tool for mapping high-resolution ionospheric
structures, which can be used to study the ionospheric response to geomagnetic storms. In this paper, we describe how 3-D
ionospheric electron density profiles were produced from data of the dense permanent Korean GPS network using the tomography
reconstruction technique. These profiles are verified by independent ionosonde data. The responses of GPS-derived parameters
at the ionospheric F2-layer to the 20th November 2003 geomagnetic storm over South Korea are investigated. A fairly large
increase in the electron density at the F2-layer peak (the NmF2) (positive storm) has been observed during this storm, which
is accompanied by a significant uplift in the height of the F2 layer peak (the hmF2). This is confirmed by independent ionosonde
observations. We suggest that the F2-layer peak height uplift and NmF2 increase are mainly associated with a strong eastward
electric field, and are not associated with the increase of the O/N2 ratio obtained from the GUVI instruments aboard the TIMED satellite. It is also inferred that the increase in NmF2 is not
caused by the changes in neutral composition, but is related to other nonchemical effects, such as dynamical changes of vertical
ion motions induced by winds and E × B drifts, tides and waves in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere region, which can be dynamically
coupled upward to generate ionospheric perturbations and oscillations. 相似文献

On the effects of the ionospheric disturbances on precise point positioning at equatorial latitudes 总被引：3，自引：2，他引：1

In precise point positioning (PPP), the ionospheric delay is corrected in a first-order approximation from GPS dual-frequency
observations, which should eliminate almost completely the ionosphere as a source of error. However, sudden plasma density
variations can adversely affect the GPS signal, degrading accuracy and reliability of positioning techniques. The occurrence
of plasma density irregularities is frequent at equatorial latitudes and is reflected in large total electron content (TEC)
variations. We study the relation between large changes in the rate of TEC (ROT) and positioning errors in single-epoch PPP.
At equatorial latitudes and during post-sunset hours, the estimated altitudes contain errors of several meters for a single-epoch
position determination, and latitude and longitude estimates are also degraded. These results have been corroborated by the
online CSRS-PPP (NRCan) program. Moreover, abrupt changes in the satellite geometry have been discarded as possible cause
of such errors, suggesting an apparent relation between the occurrence of large ROT and degraded position estimates. 相似文献

The majority of navigation satellite receivers operate on a single frequency. They compensate for the ionospheric delay using
either an ionospheric model which typically only corrects for 50% of the delay or a thin-shell map of the ionosphere. A 4D
tomographic imaging technique is used to map the free electron density over the full-height of the ionosphere above North
America during autumn 2003. The navigation solutions computed using correction based upon the thin-shell and the full-height
maps are compared in this paper. The maps are used to calculate the excess propagation delay on the L1 frequency experienced
by GPS receivers at selected locations across North America. The excess delay is applied to correct the single-frequency pseudorange
observations at each location, and the improvements to the resulting positioning are calculated. It is shown that the thin-shell
and full-height maps perform almost as well as a dual-frequency carrier-smoothed benchmark and for most receivers better than
the unfiltered dual-frequency benchmark. The full-height corrections perform well and are considerably better than thin-shell
corrections under extreme storm conditions. 相似文献

Ionospheric delay is a dominant error source in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). Single-frequency GNSS applications require ionospheric correction of signal delay caused by the charged particles in the earth’s ionosphere. The Chinese Beidou system is developing its own ionospheric model for single-frequency users. The number of single-frequency GNSS users and applications is expected to grow fast in the next years in China. Thus, developing an appropriate ionospheric model is crucially important for the Chinese Beidou system and worldwide single-frequency Beidou users. We study the performance of five globally accessible ionospheric models Global Ionospheric Map (GIM), International Reference Ionosphere (IRI), Parameterized Ionospheric Model (PIM), Klobuchar and NeQuick in low- and mid-latitude regions of China under mid-solar activity condition. Generally, all ionospheric models can reproduce the trend of diurnal ionosphere variations. It is found that all the models have better performances in mid-latitude than in low-latitude regions. When all the models are compared to the observed total electron content (TEC) data derived from GIM model, the IRI model (2012 version) has the best agreement with GIM model and the NeQuick has the poorest agreement. The RMS errors of the IRI model using the GIM TEC as reference truth are about 3.0–10.0 TECU in low-latitude regions and 3.0–8.0 TECU in mid-latitude regions, as observed during a period of 1 year with medium level of solar activity. When all the ionospheric models are ingested into single-frequency precise point positioning (PPP) to correct the ionospheric delays in GPS observations, the PIM model performs the best in both low and mid-latitudes in China. In mid-latitude, the daily single-frequency PPP accuracy using PIM model is ~10 cm in horizontal and ~20 cm in up direction. At low-latitude regions, the PPP error using PIM model is 10–20 cm in north, 30–40 cm in east and ~60 cm in up component. The single-frequency PPP solutions indicate that NeQuick model has the lowest accuracy among all the models in both low- and mid-latitude regions of China. This study suggests that the PIM model may be considered for single-frequency GNSS users in China to achieve a good positioning accuracy in both low- and mid-latitude regions. 相似文献

A new two-step algorithm for ionospheric tomography solution 总被引：3，自引：2，他引：1
Ionospheric tomography inverse algorithms are usually an ill-conditioned problem because the geometric distribution of continuously
operating reference GPS stations is not ideal for this task. In order to cope with such ill-conditioning, a new tomographic
algorithm, termed two-step algorithm (TSA), is presented. The electron density is estimated in two steps: Phillips smoothing
method (PSM) is first used to resolve the ill-conditioned problem in the ionospheric tomography system, and then, the PSM
solution is input as an initial value to the multiplicative algebraic reconstruction technique (MART) and iteratively improved.
Numerical simulations using the International Reference Ionosphere 2007 model demonstrate that the TSA is applicable to GPS-based
ionospheric tomography reconstruction and is superior to PSM and MART when these techniques are used alone. The new algorithm
is applied to reconstruct the ionospheric electron density distribution over China using GPS observations, and a comparison
with ionosonde observations is made. 相似文献
