Abstract :
The ionosphere is a naturally occurring plasma, divided into D, E and F layers, exhibits a continuous variable depending on location and time. This variability in the ionosphere stands out regular and irregular forms depending on the solar activity, geographical location, season, also changes the time of day. There are ionospheric modeling approaches caused by the complex nature of ionosphere. In this study, the resulting changes in the sun and the effects of earthquakes to TEC changing are investigated with the GPS signals for the modelling of the utilizing GPS signals.
