Simultaneous observations of spread F irregularities over Southeast Asia longitude using Sanya VHF radar,GPS and C/NOFS

Through concurrently measurements by Communication/Navigation Outage Forecasting System (C/NOFS), Sanya VHF radar and GPS ionospheric scintillation receiver on 12 March 2010, five plasma bubbles were found and three of them were observed by all those instruments. Two well-developed plumes with strong backscatter echoes were measured by Sanya radar and their corresponding depletions were observed by C/NOFS in Orbit 10317, 10318 and 10319. Broad plasma depletions resulting from merging process were found in orbit of 10318. The occurrence time and geophysical positions of scintillations correlate well with observations implemented by Sanya VHF radar and C/NOFS. Observations from three types of instrument indicate that the spread F irregularities have distinct scale. There were longitudinal differences between Sanya VHF radar and C/NOFS as irregularities measured, and the eastward drift of developed bubbles are responsible for these differences.     

Climatology of ionospheric scintillations and TEC trend over the Ugandan region

This study presents results on the investigation of the diurnal, monthly and seasonal variability of Total Electron Content (TEC), phase (_σΦ${\sigma }_{\mathrm{\Phi }}$) and amplitude (S4) scintillation indices over Ugandan (Low latitude) region. Scintillation Network Decision Aid (SCINDA) data was obtained from Makerere (0.34°N, 32.57°E) station, Uganda for two years (2011 and 2012). Data from two dual frequency GPS receivers at Mbarara (0.60°S, 30.74°E) and Entebbe (0.04°N, 32.44°E) was used to study TEC climatology during the same period of scintillation study. The results show that peak TEC values were recorded during the months of October–November, and the lowest values during the months of July–August. The diurnal peak of TEC occurs between 10:00 and 14:00 UT hours. Seasonally, the ascending and descending phases of TEC were observed during the equinoxes (March and September) and solstice (June and December), respectively. The scintillations observed during the study were classified as weak (0.1≤$\le$S4,_σΦ≤${\sigma }_{\mathrm{\Phi }}\le$0.3) and strong (0.3<$<$S4,_σΦ≤${\sigma }_{\mathrm{\Phi }}\le$1.0). The diurnal scintillation pattern showed peaks between 17:00 and 22:00 UT hour, while the seasonal pattern follows the TEC pattern mentioned above. Amplitude scintillation was more dominant than phase scintillation during the two years of the study. Scintillation peaks occur during the months of March–April and September–October, while the least scintillations occur during the months of June–July. Therefore, the contribution of this study is filling the gap in the current documentation of amplitude scintillation without phase scintillation over the Ugandan region. The scintillations observed have been attributed to wave-like structures which have periods of about 2–3 h, in the range of that of large scale travelling ionospheric disturbances (LSTIDs).     

基于FPGA的大比例系数高精度I/F电路设计

加速度计是惯性导航系统的核心部件,通常加速度计的输出信号为模拟电流,为便于导航计算机对采集数据解算处理,需经过I/F（电流/频率）转换电路。为满足某惯导系统对大比例系数加速度信号采集转换的要求,在经典I/F电路的基础上结合FPGA+A/D设计了一种比例系数大于90000脉冲/（s·mA）,量程为6mA的电流频率转换电路,同时转换电路支持串口输出。通过对该大比例系数I/F转换电路的温度特性、线性度、零位稳定性等指标的测试,表明该电路性能良好,有利于进一步拓展应用范围。

电离层－热层耦合系统中由中性风引起的F区运动

利用一种时变电离层剖面的数值模型,研究电离层最大电子浓度所在高度对热层子午风变化的响应。对武昌(30.5°N,114.4°E)和Wakkanai(45.4°N,141.7°E)讨论三种不同类型的风场对峰高的控制作用。结果表明:(1)峰高对中性风的响应过程,存在南北方向不对称性、日夜不对称性和纬度差异。在真实背景大气下,热层与电离层通过风场强烈耦合。(2)由伺服理论推算的风场基本上是合理可靠的。(3)水平风模式HWM-90在所关心的地区,大致能反映实际子午风状况,但合理程度不及伺服理论的风场。      

电离层N_mF_2的准27天变化

利用1969-1980年期间东亚和澳大利亚扇区不同地磁纬度11个台站的电离层垂直探测数据,采用带通滤波的方法,分析了白天NmF2的准27天变化特征及其与太阳活动指数F10.7的相关关系.结果表明,在大多数年里,太阳活动指数F10.7和NmF2的短周期(2～70天)频谱中,27天周期附近都出现明显的极大值;在27天波段,F10.7和NmF2的标准偏差有逐年变化特征,F10.7的平均标准偏差为10.9%,NmF2 的标准偏差随地磁纬度变化,赤道地区最小,纬度越高标准偏差越大,11个站的平均标准偏差为8.2%;在27天波段,NmF2与F10.7存在显著的相关,在0.05的显著水平下,显著相关的概率在90%以上;NmF2相对于F10.7的准27天变化平均滞后2天左右;从总体上看,太阳EUV辐射的准27天变化是造成NmF2准27天变化的主要原因.     

Ionospheric oscillations caused by geomagnetic Pi2 pulsations and their observations by multipoint continuous Doppler sounding; first results

In 2004, we started operating a continuous Doppler sounding system to investigate ionospheric signatures of infrasonic, short period acoustic gravity waves and geomagnetic pulsations. Since January 2007, four stable 3.59 MHz transmitters have been in operation in the western part of the Czech Republic. Multipoint measurements enable us to investigate horizontal propagation of waves and disturbances in the ionosphere and to estimate horizontal distances over which these waves (disturbances) are correlated.
