Wuhan Ionospheric Oblique-Incidence Sounding System and Its New Application in Localization of Ionospheric Irregularities
In this paper, a novel oblique-incidence ionosonde (Wuhan Ionospheric Oblique-Incidence Sounding System) and its new application in the localization of the ionospheric irregularities are presented. Due to the usage of the binary-phase-coded waveform, a large signal processing gain, a high Doppler and range resolution, and a large unambiguous detection range can be achieved in this ionosonde. This ionosonde also adopts the peripheral component interconnect extensions for instruments (PXI) bus technology and is designed as a small-sized PXI-based system. Furthermore, a high-performance oven-controlled crystal oscillator that is disciplined by the Global Positioning System is used to achieve a good time and frequency synchronization. With multichannel digital receiver and multiple receiving sites, this ionosonde can be applied in the localization of the ionospheric irregularities. The details of the system configuration, the ambiguity function of the sounding waveforms, the signal processing algorithm, and the time and frequency synchronization method are described. The experimental results show that the virtual height along with the ground position of the ionospheric field-aligned irregularities can be preliminarily localized with this ionosonde.
