Ionospheric PhotoMeter-II (IPM-II)

Description

Observation of the 135.6 nm far ultraviolet ionospheric oxygen intensity (OI) and nitrogen air glow intensity of LBH (N2LBH) radiation strength for the retrieval of ionospheric total electrons (TEC) and oxygen-nitrogen ratio (O/N2), with precise two-dimensional structure of the ionospheric equatorial anomalty zone to locate the aurora boundary accurately.
