      Mainul Hoque, Mohammed; Yuan, Liangliang; Prol, Fabricio dos Santos; Hernández Pajares, Manuel; Notarpietro, Riccardo; Jakowski, Norbert; Olivares Pulido, Germán; von Engeln, Axel; Marquardt, Christian (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-03-03)
      Article
      Open Access
      The radio occultation (RO) measurements of the Global Navigation Satellite System’s (GNSS’s) signals onboard a Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellite enable the computation of the vertical electron density profile from the LEO ...
    • Assessment of GRAS ionospheric measurements for ionospheric model assimilation 

      Mainul Hoque, Mohammed; Prol, Fabricio dos Santos; Hernández Pajares, Manuel; Notarpietro, Riccardo; Yuan, Liangliang; Olivares Pulido, Germán; Graffigna, Victoria; von Engeln, Axel; Marquardt, Christian (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-06-15)
      Article
      Open Access
      We conducted a study to assess the GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) Receiver for Atmospheric Sounding (GRAS) ionospheric data quality by processing Radio Occultation (RO) observations of ionospheric products. The ...

      Article
      Open Access
      In this work, a dedicated campaign by MetOp-A satellite is conducted to monitor the ionosphere based on radio-occultation (RO) measurements provided by the onboard GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) Receiver for ...
    • Topside ionospheric tomography exclusively based on LEO POD GPS carrier phases: application to autonomous LEO DCB estimation 

      Hernández Pajares, Manuel; Olivares Pulido, Germán; Hoque, Mainul; Prol, Fabricio dos Santos; Yuan, Liangliang; Notarpietro, Riccardo; Graffigna, Victoria (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-01-08)
      Article
      Open Access
      This paper presents a novel technique to estimate DCBs from GPS transmitters and receivers on-board Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. The technique consists of obtaining the DCBs as residuals from the difference between ...
