SOLVING A NAVIGATION PROBLEM WITH THE TOTAL ELECTRON CONTENT MODEL GEMTEC
Journal Title: Solar-Terrestrial Physics - Year 2019, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
This article explores the possibility of improving the accuracy of positioning in single-frequency satellite radio navigation equipment through the use of an empirical model of the total electronic content GEMTEC. The effectiveness of this model is compared with that of the Klobuchar model, which is recommended for the GPS interface control document. We conducted testing at our observation points, using data from the international network of IGS stations in the GPS system. The use of the international network allowed us to select a long period of time for the testing from 2001 to 2017. As a result, it was shown that the GEMTEC model significantly reduces the average positioning errors as compared to the Klobuchar model. We also demonstrate the possibility of introducing the GEMTEC model and its full-featured use in single-frequency home-class receivers, for example, in the Russian receiver MNP-M7.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GEOMAGNETIC STORM DEVELOPMENT AND THE SOLAR WIND PARAMETER ß
We have analyzed the dynamics of solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) parameters during the development of 933 isolated geomagnetic storms, observed over the period from 1964 to 2010. The analysis was carri...
Dependence of normal modes of the barotropic vortex equation on the mean flow structure and numerical simulation parameters
We present the results of numerical simulations of normal modes of the mean flow due to the superposition of cyclonic and anticyclonic vortices at high latitudes. Such a flow structure is often observed in the upper trop...
