About the paper

Abstract

We propose a method of calculating atmospheric range correction using the data received as a result of radio occultation sensing. The obtained experimental data has been used to compare existing approaches, to analyze results and to make a conclusion about the constructiveness of the proposed method. This approach is offered to improve the accuracy of range measurements in space navigation, satellite geodesy and spacecraft laser ranging.
