Abstract

 

Space weather, primarily driven by solar phenomena such as coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and solar flares, poses significant risks to modern aviation and satellite systems. This paper investigates key geomagnetic disturbances recorded during 2023–2024 and their measurable impacts on global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), aviation communication, and orbital satellite integrity. Using observational data from IGS GNSS receivers, aviation logs, and satellite telemetry, this study highlights specific case studies of disruptions over Pakistan and South Asia. The findings underscore the critical need for operational mitigation frameworks and real-time alert systems to safeguard technological infrastructure.
