Comparison of Performances for Computerized Ionospheric Tomography Methods

Solving the 3-D ionosphere electron density reconstruction prolem is of great importance for studying the effects of the ionosphere on signals. In this study, electron density tomography is performed for a midlatitude region using function-based methods available in the literature. The reconstructed electron density profiles are compared with the vertical electron density profiles of the ionosonde using comparison methods. The method with the most similar results to the ionosonde and the lowest computational complexity is decided.
