Abstract: The ozonesondes are widely deployed to obtain the ozone vertical structures ranging from the surface to the upper stratosphere due to their direct detections during the launches. Up to now, three major types of ozonesondes, ECC, BM, and KC, have been widely used. The ECC ozonesonde is composed of two half cells, while a single-cell technique is used for both the BM and KC ozonesondes. It has been over 20 years since the development of Chinese GPSO3 ozonesonde consisting of a single cell. However, the ECC ozonesonde formed by two half cells exhibits more technical advantages than the single cell ozonesonde, which is most widely used as well as in place of BM and KC ozonesondes at many stations. To collect more accurate measurement data, it is imperative to develop our own double cells ozondesonde as soon as possible in China. Fortunately, the Chinese researchers, including the authors, are endeavoring to achieve is scientific goal. The paper summarizes the recently developed progress of the ozonesonde produced around the world. The operational principle and technical details of different ozondesondes are also discussed. We focus on recognizing the detecting performance of the two half cells ozonesonde, such as the precision, accuracy, and error sources, and so on. By clearly acquiring the technical characters and detecting property as well as acknowledging the current status and developing trends of ozonesonde abroad, the primary objective of this study is to provide theoretical support, detail reference, and technical guidance for the successful development of our own ozonesonde in China.
