20、position, and total electron content through the Earths ionosphere and plasmasphere. The model recommended for the representation of these parameters in the ionosphere is the international reference ionosphere (IRI).IRI is an international project1)sponsored by the Committee on Space Research (COSPA

21、R) and the International Union of Radio Science (URSI). These organizations formed a working group in the late 1960s to produce an empirical standard model of the ionosphere based on all available data sources. The IRI Working Group consists of more than 50 international experts representing differe

22、nt countries and different measurement techniques and modelling communities. The group meets annually to discuss improvements and additions to the model. As a result of these activities, several steadily improved editions of the model have been released (see References 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 18, 19, 20, and

23、 53).For a given location over the globe, time, and date, IRI describes the monthly averages of electron density, electron temperature, ion temperature, and the percentage of O+, H+, He+, N+, NO+, O2+, and Cluster ions in the altitude range from 50 km to 1 500 km. In addition, IRI provides the elect

24、ron content by numerically integrating over the electron density height profile within user-provided integral boundaries. IRI is a climatological model describing monthly average conditions. The major data sources for building the IRI model are the worldwide network of ionosondes, the powerful incoh

25、erent scatter radars, the topside sounders, and in situ instruments flown on several satellites and rockets. This International Standard also presents several empirical and semi-empirical models that can be used to extend the IRI model to plasmasphere altitudes.One advantage of the empirical approac

26、h is that it solely depends on measurements and not on the evolving theoretical understanding of the processes that determine the electron and ion densities and temperatures in the Earths ionosphere. A physical model can help to find the best mathematical functions to represent variations of these p

27、arameters with altitude, latitude, longitude, time of day, day of year, and solar and magnetic activity.IRI is recommended for international use by COSPAR and URSI. The IRI model is updated and improved as new data and new sub-models become available. This International Standard provides a common fr

45、ers is important to a wide spectrum of applications. Electromagnetic waves travelling through the ionized plasma at the Earths environment experience retardation and refraction effects. A remote sensing technique relying on signals traversing the ionosphere and plasmasphere therefore needs to accoun

46、t for the ionosphere-plasmasphere influence in its data analysis. Applications can be found in the disciplines of altimetry, radio astronomy, satellite communication, navigation and orbit determination.Radio signals, transmitted by modern communication and navigation systems can be heavily disturbed

47、 by space weather hazards. Thus, severe temporal and spatial changes of the electron density in the ionosphere and plasmasphere can significantly degrade the signal quality of various radio systems which even can lead to a complete loss of the signal. Model-based products providing specific space we

48、ather information, in particular now- and forecast of the ionospheric state, serve for improvement of the accuracy and reliability of impacted communication and navigation systems.For high frequency radio communication, a good knowledge of the heights and plasma frequencies of the reflective layers

49、of the ionosphere and the plasmasphere is critical for continuous and high-quality radio reception. High frequency communication remains of great importance in many remote locations of the globe. The model helps to estimate the effect of charged particles on technical devices in the Earths environment and defines the ionosphere-plasmasphere operational environment for existing and future systems of radio communication, radio navigation, and other relevant radio technologies in the medium and
