    This study aims to analyze the Total Electron Content (TEC) in the ionosphere over Thailand using BeiDou satellite signals received by BG2s receivers, providing an alternative to the traditional use of GPS satellites for investigating TEC variations. Data were collected from January to March 2025 from six monitoring stations: Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Chumphon, Nong Bua Lam Phu, Phuket, and Ubon Ratchathani, respectively, covering the entire region of Thailand. The analysis revealed that Nong Bua Lamphu recorded the highest average at 77.94 TECU, followed by Chiang Mai with 73.55 TECU. Ubon Ratchathani had an average of 65.81 TECU, while Phuket recorded 59.54 TECU, closely followed by Bangkok with 59.22 TECU. Chumphon had the lowest average maximum value at 45.00 TECU, respectively. Additionally, training sessions were conducted for 20 participants of the Meteorological Department on using BG2s receivers to measure TEC from BeiDou satellites. The pre-training assessment showed that 6 participants, accounting for 30%, achieved scores above 80%. After the training, all participants, representing 100%, surpassed the 80% threshold. The results indicate an improvement in participants' knowledge from 30% to 100%, reflecting the success of the training program and demonstrating the potential for applying the BeiDou satellite system in future ionospheric TEC studies.

    This research proposes and investigates GNSS receiver bias modeling for near real time total electron content (TEC) monitoring across 16 multi-frequency GNSS stations in low latitude, Thailand, from 2022-2024. By applying a refined methodology based on Kenpankho et al. (2021) and integrating IONOLAB-BIAS for single station bias estimation, the research corrects for satellite and receiver inter-frequency biases to enhance TEC accuracy. Results show a consistent upward trend in TEC values, reflecting increased latitudes, seasonal ionospheric activity, and geomagnetic storms. Comparative analysis with the IRI 2020 model using correlation coefficients and RMSE reveals spatial and temporal variation, with near equatorial latitude stations showing strong alignment than upper low latitude stations. The results highlight the importance of localized GNSS-based TEC models for improving satellite positioning accuracy in equatorial regions and highlight the limitations of global models under dynamic ionospheric conditions.
