Multi-station observation of ionospheric irregularities over South Africa during strong geomagnetic storms

This paper presents results pertaining to the response of the mid-latitude ionosphere to strong geomagnetic storms that occurred from 31 March to 02 April 2001 and 07–09 September 2002. The results are based on (i) Global Positioning Systems (GPSs) derived total electron content (TEC) variations accompanying the storm, (ii) ionosonde measurements of the ionospheric electrodynamic response towards the storms and (iii) effect of storm induced travelling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) on GPS derived TEC. Ionospheric data comprising of ionospheric TEC obtained from GPS measurements, ionograms, solar wind data obtained from Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) and magnetic data from ground based magnetometers were used in this study. Storm induced features in vertical TEC (VTEC) have been obtained and compared with the mean VTEC of quiet days. The response of the mid-latitude ionosphere during the two storm periods examined may be characterised in terms of increased or decreased level of VTEC, wave-like structures in VTEC perturbation and sudden enhancement in hmF2 and h′F. The study reveals both positive and negative ionospheric storm effects on the ionosphere over South Africa during the two strong storm conditions. These ionospheric features have been mainly attributed to the travelling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) as the driving mechanism for the irregularities causing the perturbations observed. TEC perturbations due to the irregularities encountered by the satellites were observed on satellites with pseudo random numbers (PRNs) 15, 17, 18 and 23 between 17:00 and 23:00 UT on 07 September 2002.     

F3 layer feature under low and medium solar activity observed at a Chinese low latitude station Fuke

Ionogram observations from the ionosonde at Fuke (9.5°N geomagnetic latitude), a Chinese low latitude station, in 2010–2012 are analyzed to present the features of F3 layer under low and moderate solar activity conditions. Structure of the ionogram, displaying the F3 layer, was more distinct and clear during MSA than LSA periods especially during spring to summer. Start time of occurrence of the F3 layer is about at 0830–0900 LT and is approximately the same for LSA and MSA conditions. The average duration time of the F3 layer occurrence was 181 min per day under F_10.7 = 75 condition, 263 min in F_10.7 = 99 and 358 min in F_10.7 = 125, respectively. The differences of h′F2 and h′F3 exhibited obvious semiannual variation observed at Fuke from March 2010 to June 2012 and increased with increasing solar activity. The difference of foF2 and foF3 in the months February, March, September, October and November is less evident in the middle solar activity period 2011–2012 than the low solar activity 2010 and in the other period it shows a slight increase (0.5 MHz) or keeps constant. The results show that the solar activity dependence of the F3 layer occurrence at low latitude away from the magnetic equator is different from that at near the magnetic equator.     

电离层F层中舒曼共振现象的检测

利用Ａｕｒｅｏｌ－３卫星在电离层Ｆ层高度上（６５０ｋｍ左右）对电离层电场扰动与电子密度扰动的观测进行分析处理,在高纬电离层Ｆ层高度上可以检测到舒曼共振现象。根据等离子体参数,可以认为,发生在这个高度上的舒曼共振现象与Ｌ模式的波传播有关,舒曼共振的基频是与电子密度的大尺度不规则性有关,谐波分量与正向密度梯度相关。

Orbital corrections by a single-input impulsive control applied along the geomagnetic field

This paper examines the possibility of regular orbital corrections for a satellite controlled by an impulsive force applied along the induction vector of the local geomagnetic field. The main purpose of the correcting considered in the paper is to eliminate the drift in secular variation of the relative orbital parameters over the orbital period. The obtained results are applied to the formation flying problem. The developed method is tested using numerical simulation.

基于液体金属的接触PIM抑制方法和实验验证

接触非线性是射频设备和电路中产生无源互调（passive intermodulation，PIM）信号的重要原因之一。基于对接触结点射频等效电路的分析，提出了一种基于共晶镓铟合金（eutectic gallium-indium，EGaIn）的PIM抑制方法。EGaIn不同于传统的焊锡，它可以在室温下实现接触结位置上的稳定、可重构连接。首先分析了射频（radio frequency，RF）下的金属接触结的电路模型。其次设计并实现了两个包含不同金属接触结构且工作在2.6GHz的平面倒F天线（planar inverted F antenna，PIFA）。最后比较了EGaIn焊接前后PIFA的互调水平，其中对PIM指标的最大抑制程度为35dB。验证了EGaIn可以在室温下对PIFA的接触结点进行可重构焊接，这为电连接中的非线性抑制提供了一种参考方法。
