A New Mapping Function for Spaceborne TEC Conversion Based on the Plasmaspheric Scale Height

The mapping function is crucial for the conversion of slant total electron content (TEC) to vertical TEC for low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite-based observations. Instead of collapsing the ionosphere into one single shell in commonly used mapping models, we defined a new mapping function assuming the...
