GPS radio occultations
The occurrence of sporadic E (Es) layers has been a hot scientific topic for a long time. The GNSS (global navigation satellite system)-based radio occultation (RO) has proven to be a powerful technique for detecting the global Es layers. In this paper, we focus on some cases of complex Es layers based on the RO data from multiple missions processed in UCAR/CDAAC (University Corporation for Atm...
متن کاملIonospheric and plasmaspheric electron contents inferred from radio occultations and global ionospheric maps
We introduce a methodology to extract the separate contributions of the ionosphere and the plasmasphere to the vertical total electron content, without relying on a fixed altitude to perform that separation. The method combines two previously developed and tested techniques, namely, the retrieval of electron density profiles from radio occultations using an improved Abel inversion technique and...
متن کاملSimplified Generation of Radio Occultation Climatologies
The possibility of simplifying the retrieval scheme required to produce GNSS radio occultation refractivity climatologies is described. In a new, simplified retrieval approach, the main statistical analysis is performed in bending angle space and an estimate of the average bending angle profile is then propagated through an Abel transform. The average is composed of means and medians of ionosph...
متن کاملGlobal Positioning System (A Review)
Accurate measurement of physical activity is a pre-requisite to monitor population physical activity levels and design effective interventions. Global Positioning System (GPS) technology offers potential to improve the measurement of physical activity. This paper 1) reviews the extant literature on the application of GPS to monitor human movement, with a particular emphasis on free-living physi...
متن کاملIntegration of Steering Angle Sensor with Global Positioning System and Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems Inertial Measurement Unit for Vehicular Positioning
The concept of using the steering angle sensor to enhance positioning accuracy during Global Positioning System (GPS) outages is the focus of this article. This development of a GPS Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems Inertial Measurement Unit (MEMS IMU) steering angle sensor vehicular positioning system is discussed in detail including the error dynamics and measurement models as well as integrat...
