Observations in equatorial anomaly region of total electron content enhancements and depletions
A GSV 4004A GPS receiver has been operational near the crest of the equatorial anomaly at Udaipur, India for some time now. The receiver provides the line-of-sight total electron content (TEC), the phase and amplitude scintillation index, σφ and S4, respectively. This paper presents the first results on the nighttime TEC depletions associated with the equatorial spread F in the Indian zone. The...
متن کاملCharacteristics of the ionospheric total electron content of the equatorial ionization anomaly in the Asian-Australian region during 1996–2004
Ionospheric total electron content (TEC) of the equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) is studied by analyzing dual-frequency signals of the Global Position System (GPS) acquired from a network of receivers around the AsianAustralian region during 1996–2004. The latitude, occurrence time, strength of the most developed EIA crest, and crest-to-trough ratio (CTR) for both the noon and post-sunset se...
متن کاملIonospheric total electron content (TEC) studies with GPS in the equatorial region
This paper essentially deals with the effects of equatorial ionization anomaly gradient on space-based navigation systems like GPS. The equatorial region of the ionosphere, which extends about ±30dip about the magnetic equator, is characterized by a steep latitudinal gradient, not only in the maximum ionization but also in the total electron content (TEC), through a major part of the day. This ...
متن کاملAirglow observations over the equatorial ionization anomaly zone in Taiwan
Airglow imaging at mid-latitude stations often show intensity modulations associated with medium scale travelling ionospheric disturbances (MSTID), while those carried out near the equatorial regions reveal depletions caused by equatorial plasma bubbles (EPB). Two all sky cameras are used to observe plasma depletions in the 630.0 nm emission over the equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) region, ...
متن کاملModel Validation for GPS Total Electron Content (TEC) using 10th Polynomial Function Technique at an Equatorial Region
GPS receivers have been profitably employed by researchers for investigations into ionospheric and atmospheric science. However, a number of improvements in measurement accuracy are necessary for today’s applications. The ionosphere has practical importance in GPS applications because it influences transionospheric radio wave propagation. Total Electron Content (TEC) is one of the parameters of...
