Empirical modeling of variations of electron density in the undisturbed mid-latitude D-region of the ionosphere

Abstract

An empirical statistical model of the height-time variations of the electron density in the undisturbed D-region of the middle latitude ionosphere is presented. The model is based on the largest experimental data bank in Ukraine at present and is an important and necessary step for creating methods for predicting the state of the Earth’s ionosphere in order to take into account its influence on human industrial activity.
