Predicting Satellite to Ground Propagation Effects Induced by the Ionosphere
This talk was presented on 2020 April 18 at the 2019-20 NASA Arizona Space Grant Symposium. The event was virtually available via Zoom. Submitted abstract: The Ionosphere is a layer of the atmosphere that contains a high concentration of electrons that can affect signals passing through it. My resea...

The purpose of this work was to predict changes in Group Delay, Faraday Rotation, and frequency. This will be used in the CatSat project to predict and analyze an experiment satellite-to-ground propagation effects. Equations to predict these ionospheric effects were derived starting with the satellite’s orbit, ground station location, and Total Electron Content (TEC), assuming a spherical Earth, a dipole magnetic field, and a non-varying thin Ionosphere. Models verify that the slant TEC increases atlower elevations and the polarization rotation reverse direction as the satellite approaches the north magnetic pole.
