Comparison of analytical functions used to describe topside electron density profiles with satellite data

Electron density models of the ionosphere use different analytical formulations for the electron density vertical
 profile in the topside. The present paper compares some single-layer topside analytical descriptions (Chapman,
 Epstein, modified Epstein used in the NeQuick model) with...
