Abstract
This review article is a collection of research works, academic articles, and numerous academic knowledge related to equatorial plasma bubble (EPB). As per the beginning of this writing, the author was inspired by the truth that Thailand's location is close to the geomagnetic Equator with the low plasma density. Hence, Thailand has very high susceptible to occur the ionospheric anomaly during the post-sunset (e.g., EPB) and equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA). These anomalous phenomena affect directly on high-frequency communications and global navigation satellite system (GNSS). Therefore, the EPB details (e.g., EPB features, some indicators and detection methods for EPBs, recent research results, as well as conclusion and future developing trend) are the crucial content for space weather research that can support students and researchers to study and enhance in several GNSS-based applications.
