Patent attributes
The disclosed technology includes a computerized ionospheric tomography method based on vertical boundary truncation rays, which relates to the technical field of computerized ionospheric tomography (CIT). The method includes: obtaining an initial ionospheric electron density (IED) of each voxel in a target region and an ionospheric total electron content (TEC) value along a propagation path from a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) satellite; extending the target region so that GNSS stations within a certain range beyond the target region are encompassed within the target region; for GNSS stations within a certain range in the target region, calculating a vertical boundary truncation TEC value; for the GNSS stations within the target region, calculating a vertical boundary truncation TEC value; and building a three-dimensional CIT model based on the vertical boundary truncation TEC values P
