However, this technique usually suffers from the ill-posed problem caused by the poor geometry of GNSS rays, resulting in underdetermined tomographic equations. Such equations often rely on iterative methods for solving, but conventional iterative approaches require accurate initial WV density. To address this demand, we proposed two models for WV density estimation. One is the conventional model (CO model) that consists of an exponential model and a linear least-squares model, which are used to describe the spatial and temporal variability of the WV density, respectively. The other is a neural network model (NN model) that uses a backpropagation neural network (BPNN) to fit the nonlinear variation of WV density in both spatial and temporal domains. WV density derived from a Hong Kong (HK) radiosonde station (RS) during 2020 was used to validate the proposed models. Validation results show that both models well describe the spatial and temporal distribution of the WV density. The NN model exhibits better prediction performance than the CO model in terms of root mean square error (RMSE) and bias. We also applied the proposed models to GNSS WV tomography to test their performance in extreme weather conditions. Test results show that the proposed model-based GNSS tomography can correct the content of WV density but cannot accurately sense its irregular distribution.

The most widely used one is the geometry-free combination of carrier-phase smoothed code measurements. This method, however, introduces leveling errors that substantially degrade the performance of ionospheric modeling and bias estimation. To reduce leveling errors, precise point positioning (PPP) model is preferred for obtaining the ionospheric observables. We aim to investigate whether the ionospheric observables obtained from three different PPP models are consistent and how the PPP-based ionospheric observables relates to the smoothed code method. The paper begins by formulating the ionospheric observables. We then explain the statistical evaluation methods used for analyzing the bias terms derived from these methods and assessing the leveling errors from the carrier-phase smoothed code method. Numerical analysis is then conducted to compare the bias terms in the ionospheric observables and evaluate the leveling errors. The ionospheric observables based on the three PPP models show strong consistency. Compared to leveling errors in the carrier-phase smoothed code method, the leveling errors using the uncombined PPP model are significantly reduced up to five times.

Impacts of real-time satellite clock errors on GPS precise point positioning-based troposphere zenith delay estimation / Junbo Shi in Journal of geodesy, vol 89 n° 8 (August 2015)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 89 n° 8 (August 2015) . - pp 747-756 Titre : Impacts of real-time satellite clock errors on GPS precise point positioning-based troposphere zenith delay estimation Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Junbo Shi, Auteur ; Chaoqian Xu, Auteur ; Yihe Li, Auteur ; Yang Gao, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : pp 747-756 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] erreur corrélée au temps [Termes IGN] horloge atomique [Termes IGN] orbite précise [Termes IGN] positionnement cinématique en temps réel [Termes IGN] positionnement par GPS [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes IGN] temps réel [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement de données GNSS Résumé : (auteur) Global Positioning System (GPS) has become a cost-effective tool to determine troposphere zenith total delay (ZTD) with accuracy comparable to other atmospheric sensors such as the radiosonde, the water vapor radiometer, the radio occultation and so on. However, the high accuracy of GPS troposphere ZTD estimates relies on the precise satellite orbit and clock products available with various latencies. Although the International GNSS Service (IGS) can provide predicted orbit and clock products for real-time applications, the predicted clock accuracy of 3 ns cannot always guarantee the high accuracy of troposphere ZTD estimates. Such limitations could be overcome by the use of the newly launched IGS real-time service which provides ∼5 cm orbit and 0.2–1.0 ns (an equivalent range error of 6–30 cm) clock products in real time. Considering the relatively larger magnitude of the clock error than that of the orbit error, this paper investigates the effect of real-time satellite clock errors on the GPS precise point positioning (PPP)-based troposphere ZTD estimation. Meanwhile, how the real-time satellite clock errors impact the GPS PPP-based troposphere ZTD estimation has also been studied to obtain the most precise ZTD solutions. First, two types of real-time satellite clock products are assessed with respect to the IGS final clock product in terms of accuracy and precision. Second, the real-time GPS PPP-based troposphere ZTD estimation is conducted using data from 34 selected IGS stations over three independent weeks in April, July and October, 2013. Numerical results demonstrate that the precision, rather than the accuracy, of the real-time satellite clock products impacts the real-time PPP-based ZTD solutions more significantly. In other words, the real-time satellite clock product with better precision leads to more precise real-time PPP-based troposphere ZTD solutions. Therefore, it is suggested that users should select and apply real-time satellite products with better clock precision to obtain more consistent real-time PPP-based ZTD solutions.

Most previous efforts focus on the performance evaluation of post-processed GPS-derived PWV estimates using International GNSS Service (IGS) satellite products with at least 3-9-h latency. However, the suggested timeliness for meteorological nowcasting is 5-30 min. Therefore, the latency has limited the GPS-based PWV estimation in real-time meteorological nowcasting. The limitation has been overcome since April 2013 when IGS released real-time GPS orbit and clock products. This becomes the focus of this paper, which investigates real-time GPS precise point positioning (PPP)-based PWV estimation and its potential for rainfall monitoring and forecasting. This paper first evaluates the accuracy of IGS CLK90 real-time orbit and clock products.

Improved one/multi-parameter models that consider seasonal and geographic variations for estimating weighted mean temperature in ground-based GPS meteorology / Yi Bin Yao in Journal of geodesy, vol 88 n° 3 (March 2014)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 88 n° 3 (March 2014) . - pp 273 - 282 Titre : Improved one/multi-parameter models that consider seasonal and geographic variations for estimating weighted mean temperature in ground-based GPS meteorology Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Yi Bin Yao, Auteur ; Bao Zhang, Auteur ; Chaoqian Xu, Auteur ; Feng Yang, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : pp 273 - 282 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] données GPS [Termes IGN] météorologie [Termes IGN] pression atmosphérique [Termes IGN] propagation troposphérique [Termes IGN] signal GPS [Termes IGN] température [Termes IGN] température de surface [Termes IGN] vapeur d'eau Résumé : (Auteur) In ground-based GPS meteorology, weighted mean temperature is the key parameter to calculate the conversion factor which will be used to map zenith wet delay to precipitable water vapor. In practical applications, we can hardly obtain the vertical profiles of meteorological parameters over the site, thus cannot use the integration method to calculate weighted mean temperature. In order to exactly calculate weighted mean temperature from a few meteorological parameters, this paper studied the relation between weighted mean temperature and surface temperature, surface water vapor pressure and surface pressure, and determined the relationship between, on the one hand, the weighted mean temperature, and, on the other hand, the surface temperature and surface water vapor pressure. Considering the seasonal and geographic variations in the relationship, we employed the trigonometry functions with an annual cycle and a semi-annual cycle to fit the residuals (seasonal and geographic variations are reflected in the residuals). Through the above work, we finally established the GTm-I model and the PTm-I model with a 2 2.5 (latlon) resolution. Test results show that the two models both show a consistent high accuracy around the globe, which is about 1.0 K superior to the widely used Bevis weighted mean temperature–surface temperature relationship in terms of root mean square error.
