Description
Traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) are signatures of Atmospheric Gravity Waves (AGWs) in the ionosphere. They can be studied using different ionospheric parameters such as plasma temperature, electron density and altitudes of respective ionospheric layers.
Distinguishing effects of TIDs on the overall system behaviour requires estimation of background conditions. This presentation will discuss different methodologies used in background estimation when studying TIDs based on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) data. Methods including (but not limited to); polynomial fitting, running averages and
medians will be investigated to determine the appropriate detrending method that provides clear traces of TIDs from GNSS data.
