Coastal sea-surface wave measurements using software-based GPS reflectometers in Lanyu, Taiwan
A low-cost transportable software-based global positioning system reflectometry (GPS-R) scheme, which can measure sea-surface wave frequency, period, and speed, is proposed and described. We designed and imple...

Open AccessGlobal morphology of ionospheric sporadic E layer from the FormoSat-3/COSMIC GPS radio occultation experiment
Ionospheric sporadic-E (Es) activity and global morphology were studied using the 50 Hz signal-to-noise ratio amplitude and excess phase measurements from the FormoSat-3/Constellation Observing System for Mete...

Global morphology of ionospheric F-layer scintillations using FS3/COSMIC GPS radio occultation data
We report on the FormoSat-3/Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate (FS3/COSMIC) limb-viewing observations of GPS L-band scintillations since mid-2006 and propose to study global...

Performance evaluation of different ionospheric models in single-frequency code-based differential GPS positioning
Differential ionospheric slant delays are obtained from a quiet-time, three-dimensional ionospheric electron density model, called the TaiWan Ionosphere Model (TWIM), to be used in code-based differential GPS...

Application of the TaiWan Ionospheric Model to single-frequency ionospheric delay corrections for GPS positioning
The performance of a three-dimensional ionospheric electron density model derived from FormoSat3/COSMIC GPS Radio Occultation measurements, called the TaiWan Ionosphere Model (TWIM), in removing the ionospheri...

Open AccessA comparison of a model using the FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC data with the IRI model
In this study, an empirical model constructed using data of FORMOSAT3/COSMIC (F3/C) from 29 June, 2006, to 17 October, 2009, retrieves altitude profiles of electron density (Ne). The model derives global Ne profi...
