Abstract
A time-variant total electron content (TEC) estimation method with fully polarimetric geosynchronous synthetic aperture radar (GEO-SAR) data is proposed based on inner aperture Faraday rotation angle estimation and an accurate TEC inversion model. With a long integration time and sensitivity to ionosphere effects, the fully polarimetric GEO-SAR data are utilised for estimation with high accuracy for both the time-variant TEC and the time interval. Superiority of the proposed method over conventional ionospheric sounding methods is verified by simulation results.
