A New Method to Determine the Optimal Thin Layer Ionospheric Height and Its Application in the Polar Regions

A New Method to Determine the Optimal Thin Layer Ionospheric Height and Its Application in the Polar Regions

The conversion between the line-of-sight slant total electron content (STEC) and the vertical total electron content (VTEC) depends on the mapping function (MF) under the widely used thin layer ionospheric model. The thin layer ionospheric height (TLIH) is an essential parameter of the MF, which aff...
