Validation of the α-μ Model of the Power Spectral Density of GPS Ionospheric Amplitude Scintillation

The α-μ model has become widely used in statistical analyses of radio channels, due to the flexibility provided by its two degrees of freedom. Among several applications, it has been used in the characterization of low-latitude amplitude scintillation, which frequently occurs during the nighttime of...
