An accurate and efficient algorithm for Faraday rotation corrections for spaceborne microwave radiometers

Faraday rotation changes the polarization plane of linearly polarized microwaves which propagate through the ionosphere. To correct for ionospheric polarization error, it is necessary to have electron density profiles on a global scale that represent the ionosphere in real time. We use raytrace thro...
