Abstract
Mars is characterized by the absence of an intrinsic magnetic field like the Earth, but the presence of local crustal magnetic fields can produce an interaction with the ionosphere producing negative effects on the radar signal propagation. Taking into account the Ionosphere Density profiles available in Mars’s literature [1]. and the observations of Mars from the Mars Global Surveyor (henceforth MGS), the purpose of this report is the evaluation of the magnetic fields impact on MARSIS and SHARAD signals.
