Orthogonal network for functional fitting. Each node of the orthogonal layer calculates a component of the surface harmonics. The weighted sum of the outputs of the orthogonal layer for each shell is further transferred by the function \(\hat{\sigma }\) in the output layer. The sum of the two shells gives the vertical TEC. Weights and biases are adjusted to minimize the residual error
