I-SWEAT Summary初步研究结果和结论 经过二年的初步论证和概念设计，我们提出利用加拿大的“快捷”微小卫星平台在高倾角低地球轨道（轨道高度: 300-700 公里）上对电离层及热层的中性粒子，磁场和电子密度总含量进行探测，确切掌握空间天气在磁暴和亚暴期间的变化对电离层和热层的影响，进而深入了解其对卫星的影响。 这些影响至少包括：电子密度总含量增长，GPS信号闪烁，热层扩张和异常轨道下降。进一步改进空间天气影响电离层及热成层的预测和预报方法将直接有利于卫星轨道设计和轨道操作。 这颗电离层及热层空间天气研究微小卫星（I-SWEAT）将至少携带3种探测仪器（中性粒子质量速度分析仪, 双频GPS 接收机, 磁强计），利用多元化分布式地面站独立完成低成本、高效率的长期科学探测任务。与其他空间天气研究卫星同步进行集群式组网探测，将进一步深化我们对空间天气物理过程的理解，扩大I-SWEAT对空间天气研究的意义。 卡尔加里大学和约克大学将汇同其他加拿大大学和研究部门进行科学载荷和卫星平台的研制，我们欢迎各种形式的合作研究和联合探测。 • Mission Concept: QuickSat bus in low-Earth polar orbit Instruments: Atmospheric Neutral Analyzer, Dual-frequency GPS Receivers, Fluxgate Magnetometer Low-cost science operations; multiple ground stations • Scientific Objective: Study space weather effects in ionosphere-thermosphere TEC enhancement; Thermosphere expansion; anomalous orbit drag
