GPS availability and positioning issues when the signal paths are aligned with ionospheric plasma bubbles

TL;DR: In this paper, the propagation paths of signals through equatorial ionospheric irregularities are analyzed by evaluating their effects on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning and availability based on observations during 32 days by a scintillation monitor at Sao Jose dos Campos, Brazil.

Climatology and modeling of ionospheric scintillations and irregularity zonal drifts at the equatorial anomaly crest region

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the solar cycle dependence of ionospheric scintillations and the zonal drift velocities of scintillation-producing irregularities for a station located under the southern crest of the equatorial ionization anomaly.

Amplitude scintillation index derived from C / N 0 measurements released by common geodetic GNSS receivers operating at 1 Hz

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed an amplitude scintillation index, which is derived from the carrier-to-noise density ratio (C/N) data released by common geodetic GNSS receivers operating at 1-Hz.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility of precise navigation in high and low latitude regions under scintillation conditions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the effect of scintillation on the GNSS signal is quite different in low and high latitudes, and that the detection of these cycle slips is the most challenging problem for precise navigation.

Analysis of Plasma Bubble Signatures in Total Electron Content Maps of the Low-Latitude Ionosphere: A Simplified Methodology

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a methodology to estimate the total electron content (TEC) of the low-latitude ionosphere based on GPS measurements and compare with results from other geophysical instruments, such as all-sky imagers and ionosondes.

Control of the seasonal and longitudinal occurrence of equatorial scintillations by the longitudinal gradient in integrated E region Pedersen conductivity

TL;DR: In this article, the seasonal maxima in scintillation activity coincide with the times of year when the solar terminator is most nearly aligned with the geomagnetic flux tubes, and the occurrence of plasma density irregularities responsible for scintillations is most likely when the integrated E-region Pedersen conductivity is changing most rapidly.
