Resumen:
Abstract: In order to check the performance of International Reference Ionosphere 2007 model (IRI 2007) to predict total electron content (TEC) values, we compare IRI 2007 TEC predictions against TEC measurements obtained using GPS satellites signals. The measured TEC values were obtained at nine stations in the South American sector, ranging from 18.4 to −64.7 in geographic latitude. The data correspond to June solstice and September equinox,1999, a high solar activity year. Moreover comparisons with IRI 2001 performance, studied for the same period, have been done.
