Main Article Content
Abstract
The COST 296 Action MIERS (Mitigation of Ionospheric Effects on Radio Systems) within the ionospheric
community has the objectives, embodied in the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), to develop an increased
knowledge of the effects imposed by the ionosphere on practical radio systems, and the development and implementation
of techniques to mitigate the deleterious effects of the ionosphere on such systems. This introductory
