摘要
The paper analyses the possibility of recovering the vertical structure of the distribution of the electron concentration in the ionosphere based on radio occultation data acquired using the GPS-'Microlab-1' system of satellites. Results of the recovery of the regular profile (F2-layer) and the fine structure (E-layer) of the electron concentration are given in an approximation of a spherical symmetry for its distribution based on phase measurements. It is shown that it is possible to use amplitude data together with phase data to analyse the suitability of the spherical symmetry approximation.
