Alternative terms: Ionospheric error, Skywave error
The total systematic and random error resulting from the reception of a navigational signal after ionospheric refraction. It may be due to (1) Variations in the transmission path (2) Non-uniform height of the ionosphere (3) Non-uniform propagation within the ionosphere (4) Horizontal components of refraction (5) Back scatter (6) Forward scatter.
