AbstractUniverse comprises of various number of atoms in the form of protons, electrons and neutrons. An electron present in the ionospheric region is known as total electron content. From ground to satellite communication and satellite navigation, TECU will have an affect due to the space weather occurrences. Rapid shifts are noticed in Global navigation a satellite system signal which leads to disturbances in the ionosphere region. The phenomena‟s are observed as auroras over the Polar Regions due to the different solar activities. Numerous solar activities affect the GNSS results in positional error, it also helps to understand the nature and how the various elements in space are interlaced with the earth‟s behavior. In my research, TEC values will be analyzed monthly seasonally and yearly and the comparison of TEC will be done with the model IRI 2016 model data and analysis of positional error is done with respect to solar events.
