/** Class modifying theoretical angular measurement with ionospheric delay.
* The effect of ionospheric correction on the angular measurement is computed
* through the computation of the ionospheric delay. The spacecraft state
* is shifted by the computed delay time and elevation and azimuth are computed
* again with the new spacecraft state.
*
* 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.
