Tomographic Reconstruction of the Ionospheric Electron Density in term of Wavelets

نویسندگان

چکیده مقاله:

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 functions are used as base functions to model the horizontal and the vertical structure of the electron density, respectively. Sparseness of data and data gaps make ionospheric tomography an ill-posed inverse problem. The truncated singular value decomposition (TSVD) method is used to come up with solution. The data analysis results show that the latitudinal sections of the electron density in ionosphere obtained from the tomographic technique supports the expected time and height variations in the electron density. Moreover, these findings show that the height of maximum electron density is changed during the day. This confirms the efficiency of the developed multilayer model in comparison to the traditional single-layer ones. The relative error between the reconstructed electron density and the electron density obtained from ionosonde data varies between 5 to 35 percent. The difference between the reconstructed electron density (as well as the corresponding estimations of the IRI-2001 model) and the direct estimates of this quantity increases when the electron density reaches to its maximum value. Assuming that the ionosonde station in Tehran produces reliable results, this proves that the reconstructed image as well as the IRI-2001 model does not efficiently constraint the electron density during this period of time.

Application of hybrid regularization method for tomographic reconstruction of midlatitude ionospheric electron density

Reconstructing ionospheric electron density (IED) is an ill-posed inverse problem, with classical Tikhonov regularization tending to smooth IED structures. By contrast, total variation (TV) regularization effectively resists noise and preserves discontinuities of the IED. In this paper, we regularize the inverse problem by incorporating both Tikhonov and TV regularization. A specific formulatio...

Tomographic reconstruction of ionospheric electron density during the storm of 5-6 August 2011 using multi-source data

The insufficiency of data is the essential reason for ill-posed problem existed in computerized ionospheric tomography (CIT) technique. Therefore, the method of integrating multi-source data is proposed. Currently, the multiple satellite navigation systems and various ionospheric observing instruments provide abundant data which can be employed to reconstruct ionospheric electron density (IED)....

Tomographic reconstruction using nonseparable wavelets

In this paper, the use of nonseparable wavelets for tomographic reconstruction is investigated. Local tomography is also presented. The algorithm computes both the quincunx approximation and detail coefficients of a function from its projections. Simulation results showed that nonseparable wavelets provide a reconstruction improvement versus separable wavelets.
