In this paper, complete complementary code (CCC) sequences are applied to a High Frequency (HF) ionospheric sounding network. Ionosondes distributed at multiple locations use the mutually orthogonal CCC sequences to conduct vertical soundings synchronously. At the same time, thanks to the omnidirectional antennas, every station can receive the oblique echoes transmitted from the others. Due to the orthogonality between the code sequences, both vertical and oblique ionograms can be simultaneously obtained and completely separated. Through this method, the sounding efficiency can be enhanced, and the inversion difficulty can be reduced. Further, by using the data assimilation method, vertical and oblique sounding results can be combined to obtain a wide range of regional ionospheric characteristics. To verify the performance of this kind of sounding network, validation experiments are implemented to demonstrate that vertical and oblique ionograms can be obtained independently at the same time and inverted separately and that the maps of foF2 parameters obtained by using the data assimilation method provide more details than single vertical or oblique sounding. |
