Description:
This Session will focus on ionospheric effects on GNSS signals, as well as on current techniques to model, monitor, forecast and mitigate such effects, and in particular their importance and impact for end users, from safety critical to carrier phase based high accuracy applications such as RTK networks. We expect contributions relating to TEC monitoring and imaging techniques to describe the upper atmosphere plasma, as well as work in the area of mitigation of ionospheric perturbation phenomena such as Ionospheric scintillation, traveling ionospheric disturbances, steep TEC gradients, rapid TEC variations and TEC depletions. Studies on synergies between space weather and these ionospheric perturbations are also of relevance for this session. Existing or new models, services and receiver tracking technology to aid users in the face of the forthcoming solar maximum are of special interest. Contributions relating to user experience in this field are also encouraged. Presentations on studies related to high order ionosphere errors affecting high accuracy and real-time GNSS techniques, as well as their effects on reference frame for applications in geodetic positioning and navigation are also welcome.
