Several methods are described by which the entire electron density profile of the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) could be respresented analytically while emphasizing the most important physical features. Consideration is given to the use of absolute values as a sum of individual Ne (height) functions in order to eliminate conventional time-consuming fitting procedures. It is recommended that three Epstein steps be integrated in the skeleton function, thereby providing a total of eleven parameters for the profile. Some of the parameters might be only slowly variable (HX2, HX3, SC2, SC3). 9 references.
