ITU-R P.1239-3 1RECOMMENDATION ITU-R P.1239-3 ITU-R reference ionospheric characteristics (Question ITU-R 212/3) (1997-2007-2009-2012) Scope This Recommendation provides models and numerical maps of the monthly median characteristics of the ionosphere, and informati

9、on regarding the statistical variability. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that long-term reference ionospheric data and prediction methods are needed for radio-circuit design, service planning and frequency band selection, recommends 1 that for the prediction of ionospheric chara

10、cteristics, use should be made of the formulations contained in Annex 1. Annex 1 Ionospheric characteristics 1 Introduction Expressions are provided for the evaluation of the monthly median of foF2, M(3000)F2, foE, foF1, hF and hF,F2 and of the monthly median, upper decile and lower decile of foEs a

11、nd fbEs. Also included are representations of the percentage of occurrence of spread-F. These formulations yield values for any location, month and time-of-day for different solar epochs. In the case of foE and foF1, empirical formulae in terms of solar-zenith angle are presented. For the other iono

12、spheric characteristics a numerical mapping technique based on orthogonal Fourier functions is applied. 2 Mapping functions The general form of the numerical map function, (, , T) is the Fourier time series: (, , T ) = a0(, ) + j = 1Haj(, ) cos j T + bj (, ) sin j T (1) where: : ionospheric characte

13、ristic to be mapped : geographic latitude (90 90) 2 Rec. ITU-R P.1239-3 : East geographic longitude (0 360) ( in degrees East of the Greenwich meridian) T : universal time (UTC) expressed as an angle (180 T 180) H : maximum number of harmonics used to represent the diurnal variation. The Fourier coe

14、fficients, aj(, ) and bj(, ), vary with the geographic coordinates, and are represented by series of the form: aj (, ) = k = 0KU2j,kGk (, ), j = 0, 1, 2, . . . , H (2a) bj (, ) = k = 0KU2j 1,kGk (, ), j = 1, 2, . . ., H (2b) The particular choice of the functions, Gk(, ) is determined by specifying

15、the integers k (k0, k1, k2, . . . , ki, . . . , km; km= K), where i is the order in longitude. Therefore, a numerical map can be written more explicitly in the form: (, , T ) = k = 0KU0k Gk(, ) + j = 1Hcos j T k = 0KU2j,kGk(, ) + sin j T k = 0KU2j 1,kGk(, ) (3) U2j,kand U2j1,kin equations (2a), (2b)

16、 and (3), can be written as Us,k, where s is either 2j or 2j 1. In the numerical mapping technique, the modified magnetic dip: X = arc tan Icos (4) has been used, where I is the magnetic dip and is the geographic latitude. Since X is a function of both geographic latitude and longitude, the formal e

17、xpression of (, , T), equation (3), is unchanged. Table 1 shows the geographic functions, Gk(, ). A model of the Earths magnetic field for epoch 1960 based on a sixth-order spherical-harmonic analysis is employed in order to determine modified magnetic dip and gyrofrequency required in the evaluatio

18、n of the numerical maps. The 1960 epoch must be used, rather than some other epoch of interest because it is that which is used in generating the values of the numerical coefficients. Rec.

25、oundings of the ionosphere at a large number of ground stations all over the world. The sets of numerical coefficients defining the diurnal and geographical variations of the monthly median of foF2 and M(3000)F2 are based on a linear relationship with solar activity1. The coefficients are the values

26、 of Us,k(see equations (2) and (3) that define the function (, , T), of the numerical map of the given characteristic for the indicated month and level of solar activity. The coefficients are available for each month of the year, and for two levels of solar activity, R12= 0 and R12= 100. R12is the t

27、welve-month running mean value of the monthly sunspot numbers and is used as an index of the level of solar activity. For some applications it may be more appropriate to use grid-point tables for the ionospheric characteristics rather than implementing equation (1). Computer programs to calculate gr

28、id-point tables for foF2 and M(3000)F2 are available on the Radiocommunication Study Group 3 website in 2 alternative software procedures. Output grid point tables for foF2 and M(3000)F2, from one of the programs mentioned above, are also available on the Radiocommunication Study Group 3 website. 1S

29、everal different sets of coefficients have been available. The recommended set is that approved at the CCIR Plenary Assembly, Oslo, 1966. Rec. ITU-R P.1239-3 5For the evaluation of parameters between grid points the bi-linear interpolation procedure given in Recommendation ITU-R P.1144 (Annex 1) sho

30、uld be used. For most purposes it is adequate to assume a linear relationship with R12for both foF2 and M(3000)F2. However, the relationship between foF2 and R12becomes non-linear at a level of solar activity which is a function of geographic location, time of day and season. The most noticeable dep

31、arture from linearity is for values of R12above approximately 160. For values of R12greater than 160, the error is reduced by assuming that higher values are effectively 160. The relationship of M(3000)F2 with R12is also taken to be linear over the range of values up to R12= 160. For higher values o

32、f R12, M(3000)F2 is taken to be the value obtained for R12= 160. 3.2 Variability factors The decile factors for describing the daily variations within a month for foF2 are given in Tables 2 and 3. The tables are for the local time and geographic latitude at the control point. Tables are given for th

33、ree ranges of sunspot number, R12, and for the three seasons: Winter: November-February in the Northern Hemisphere and May-August in the Southern Hemisphere Equinox: March, April, September and October Summer: May-August in the Northern Hemisphere and November-February in the Southern Hemisphere. A
