This dataset contains the plasma electron density derived from electric field mutual impedance spectra obtained by on-ground analysis of RPC-MIP spectra acquired when RPC-MIP operated in active modes (SDL and LDL).

Please acknowledge the Principal Investigator(s), the RPC-MIP Team, the ESA Planetary Science Archive as well as the CDPP (Centre de Données de la Physique des Plasmas) for the provision of these data when making a publication using these data.
