Atmospheric Delay: The Limiting Factor in Modern Space Geodesy Techniques. Test of Well Known Functions Used in Modeling Versus Ray Trace Results from Recent Data.

I.M. Ifadis, P. Savvaidis

Abstract:	This report is based mainly on the authors’ extensive research concerning the atmospheric effect on radiowave propagation through the atmosphere. The zenith delay modeling is based mainly on linear form and the parametrization is based on the use of different climate data sets. The results are summarized and presented in tables for the ease of use. These models were tested against other similar and the results are presented and discussed. Suggestions about their use are also given.
