A simulation study on the effects of precipitation electrons on the polar ionosphere is carried out in this paper. Soft electron precipitation is considered in considered in constructing the polar ionospheric model, and improvements are made in applying finite differential scheme for solving the ionospheric model equations. When only soft electron precipitation ionization is considered, a typical ionospheric F layer can be obtained, while precipitating electrons with higher characteristic energy have maximum ionization rate at lower height for form distinct ionospheric E layer. The ionozation density of the E layer becomes even greater than the F layer. Taking the statistical results of precipitating electrons as model inputs at the cusp region latitudes, the simulation results agree well with observation. Comparing the simulation results and statistical results of ionospheric F layer occurrence with statistical distribution of precipitating electrons at the cusp latitudes, we point out that the so called magnetic local noon effect at Zhongshan Station can be interpreted as the effects of precipitating electrons.
