Numerical synthesis of ionograms in horizontally inhomogeneous ionosphere on the basis of compound parabolic layer model
Characteristic U-shaped traces (cusps) on ionograms have been identified as off-angle echoes from sloping electron density contours caused by the presence of traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs). Temporal evolution of the cusps is associated with horizontal drift of the disturbances. A potenti...
