Abstract

Ionospheric tomography represents an undersampled inversion problem since ray paths close to the horizontal through the ionosphere are not possible in satellite to ground-based receiver geometry. By means of experimental results the success of various methods developed to overcome this inherent limitation are demonstrated. The resolution of ray tomography is set ultimately by the diffraction limit. Some examples are presented where ionospheric structures on scales of tens of kilometers have been imaged from experimental observations.
