Abstract

A time-varying computed ionospheric tomography (TVCIT) algorithm for reconstructing moving images of the ionosphere is proposed. Since the TVCIT algorithm provides more information in the reconstructions than is provided in reconstructions using conventional static computed ionospheric tomography, the TVCIT algorithm requires information from additional data sources for accurate reconstruction. There are several data sources that may be available for TVCIT reconstruction, including ionosonde data and total electron content data from additional satellites. This article evaluates the efficacy of various combinations of data sources for TVCIT reconstruction. In addition, a quantitative measure is used to compare the amount of information derived from several different combinations of data sources and to evaluate the effect of varying the number of ground stations. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
