Abstract
Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) depict local ionospheric irregularity in low-latitude regions which can spread to mid-latitude regions. In this work, we analyzed the effects of the EPBs on the performance of real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning at the short, medium, and long baselines in Bangkok, Thailand. We used the kinematic positioning mode provided by a free and open-source software (FOSS) package called RTKLIB to analyze the positioning errors. It is found that the positioning errors are higher during the disturbance periods and more severe in the long baseline case.
