Abstract
This paper presents a new approach for calculating the ionogram-based total electron content so as to be applied alternatively for alarming and preventing the disasters, for example, earthquake, tsunami or other space objectives. The proposed ITEC is estimated using the analytical expression of NeQuick model, the autoscaled Digisonde data, and a new variable "m" of 1. The results are show that 1) the proposed B0 is close to the B0-obs of Digisonde compared to the B0-IRI and the B2bot of the NeQuick model, 2) the diurnal variation of B0-Pro is the same as that of B0-obs compared to those of B0-IRI and B2bot, 3) the proposed ITEC is also close to the ITEC of Digisonde and TEC-iri, excluding the observed GPS TEC, and 4) all of the studied TEC values behave similar diurnal variations. Since the proposed ITEC is based on the analytical functions, the improvement of TEC-B0-Pro can be conducted reliably in order to close to the GPS TEC possibly and apply it optionally to correct the positioning errors for GNSS and aviation systems.
