The Reliability of Ionospheric Height Determinations

The Reliability of Ionospheric Height Determinations

A study is made of the uncertainties existing in determinations of electron distribution based on virtual height data. The effect of an assumed distribution in the valley between two layers upon the necessary upper-layer form is investigated, and a method for evaluating the maximum error in height d...

Zusammenfassung:A study is made of the uncertainties existing in determinations of electron distribution based on virtual height data. The effect of an assumed distribution in the valley between two layers upon the necessary upper-layer form is investigated, and a method for evaluating the maximum error in height determination is given.
