/** Base class modifying theoretical range-rate measurement with ionospheric delay.
 * The effect of ionospheric correction on the range-rate is directly computed
 * through the computation of the ionospheric delay difference with respect to
 * time.
 *
 * The ionospheric delay depends on the frequency of the signal (GNSS, VLBI, ...).
 * For optical measurements (e.g. SLR), the ray is not affected by ionosphere charged particles.
 * <p>
 * Since 10.0, state derivatives and ionospheric parameters derivates are computed
 * using automatic differentiation.
