Abstract

The temperature profile is inversed by using the inversion methods of geometric optics based on GPS radio occultation technique.In this paper,the curve of temperature profile are obtained and compared with the results of other sounding technique.The atmospheric sounding technique based on the GPS has been shown to be very accurate,which suggests GPS radio occultation data is efficient.
