TL;DR: The radio occultation (RO) technique, which makes use of radio signals transmitted by the global positioning system (GPS) satellites, has emerged as a powerful and relatively inexpensive approach for sounding the global atmosphere with high precision, accuracy, and vertical resolution in all weather and over both land and ocean as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The Global Positioning System/Meteorology ( GPS/MET) Program was established in 1993 by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) to demonstrate active limb sounding of the Earth's atmosphere using the radio occultation technique.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the GPS radio occultation (RO) inversion process is described and the accuracy of RO soundings of the CHAMP (CHAllenging Minisatellite Payload) and SACC (Satellite de Aplicaciones Cientificas-C) missions processed by CDAAC software.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimates of the precision of GPS radio occultations from the COSMIC/FORMOSAT‐3 mission
TL;DR: In this paper, the COSMIC/Formosa Satellite 3 (FORMOSAT-3) is a six-satellite radio occultation mission that was launched in mid-April, 2006.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis and validation of GPS/MET radio occultation data in the ionosphere
TL;DR: In this paper, two radio occultation inversion algorithms are presented, one based on the Abel integral transform and the other based on a 3D inversion constrained with the horizontal structure of a priori electron density fields.
