To fulfil a train control system’s aim of reducing the need to install trackside equipment, the GNSS precise point positioning (PPP) method is applied in place of the conventional differential GNSS method. As the railway environment has the character of long operational mileage and complex GNSS measurement conditions, the GPS and BDS constellations are combined with measurement processing to improve the system’s continuity and stability. Ultra-rapid GNSS orbit and clock product is used for real-time PPP. The GNSS-PPP and IMU are tightly coupled using an Extended Kalman filter with single-differenced ionospheric-free GPS + BDS carrier phase and pseudorange observations. The carrier phase ambiguities are estimated as “float” values every epoch to reduce the impact of GNSS signal loss-of-lock and cycle slips. A train experiment was conducted on the Qinghai-Tibet Railway to evaluate system performance. The results show that the proposed system has a better performance than the conventional methods, including GPS + BDS PPP, LC GPS + BDS PPP/IMU and TC GPS PPP/IMU, with 52.1%, 49.4% and 52.1%, respectively. The tightly-coupled GPS + BDS PPP/IMU system under conditions of partly blocked GNSS coverage was evaluated to evaluate the system's continuity. It was confirmed that the proposed system had more stable positioning results and higher positioning accuracy.

On enhanced PPP with single difference between-satellite ionospheric constraints / Yan Xiang in Navigation : journal of the Institute of navigation, vol 69 n° 1 (Spring 2022)

One effective way to shorten the convergence time is to apply ionospheric constraints because of the external ionospheric information. The conventional way to do this is to apply high precision but biased ionospheric corrections. The limitations of the method are that all ionospheric constraints must be derived from the same set of reference stations to have the same data. An approach based on single differences between satellite ionospheric constraints (SDBS-IONO) is developed to address the data issue due to having no common satellite visibility. The proposed method is more flexible and scalable in terms of adding ionospheric constraints. Based on a network of about 130 stations, we validated the proposed SDBS-ION method and compared it to the conventional method. Our results confirm that the ionospheric constraints enhance the PPP convergence time significantly depending on the accuracy of ionospheric constraints. Finally, we discuss crucial factors regarding how long and accurate the effectiveness of ionospheric constraints are in reducing PPP convergence time.

Calibration errors in determining slant Total Electron Content (TEC) from multi-GNSS data / Wei Li in Advances in space research, vol 63 n° 5 (1 March 2019)  

Public [article]  inAdvances in space research > vol 63 n° 5 (1 March 2019) . - pp 1670 - 1680 Titre : Calibration errors in determining slant Total Electron Content (TEC) from multi-GNSS data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Wei Li, Auteur ; Guangxing Wang, Auteur ; Jinzhong Mi, Auteur ; Shaocheng Zhang, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 1670 - 1680 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] données BeiDou [Termes IGN] données Galileo [Termes IGN] données GNSS [Termes IGN] données GPS [Termes IGN] étalonnage des données [Termes IGN] ligne de base [Termes IGN] propagation ionosphérique [Termes IGN] simple différence [Termes IGN] teneur totale en électrons [Termes IGN] trajet multiple Résumé : (Auteur) The global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is presently a powerful tool for sensing the Earth's ionosphere. For this purpose, the ionospheric measurements (IMs), which are by definition slant total electron content biased by satellite and receiver differential code biases (DCBs), need to be first extracted from GNSS data and then used as inputs for further ionospheric representations such as tomography. By using the customary phase-to-code leveling procedure, this research comparatively evaluates the calibration errors on experimental IMs obtained from three GNSS, namely the US Global Positioning System (GPS), the Chinese BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), and the European Galileo. On the basis of ten days of dual-frequency, triple-GNSS observations collected from eight co-located ground receivers that independently form short-baselines and zero-baselines, the IMs are determined for each receiver for all tracked satellites and then for each satellite differenced for each baseline to evaluate their calibration errors. As first derived from the short-baseline analysis, the effects of calibration errors on IMs range, in total electron content units, from 1.58 to 2.16, 0.70 to 1.87, and 1.13 to 1.56 for GPS, Galileo, and BDS, respectively. Additionally, for short-baseline experiment, it is shown that the code multipath effect accounts for their main budget. Sidereal periodicity is found in single-differenced (SD) IMs for GPS and BDS geostationary satellites, and the correlation of SD IMs over two consecutive days achieves the maximum value when the time tag is around 4 min. Moreover, as byproducts of zero-baseline analysis, daily between-receiver DCBs for GPS are subject to more significant intra-day variations than those for BDS and Galileo.

Differential positioning based on the orthogonal transformation algorithm with GNSS multi-system / Xiao Liang in GPS solutions, vol 22 n° 3 (July 2018)

We focus on GNSS multi-system differential positioning based on a single-system orthogonal transformation algorithm. The orthogonal transformation algorithm using single-difference measurements is proposed to avoid the high correlation between measurements and the unnecessary prominence to the reference satellite in double-difference positioning. In addition, the algorithm uses a more straightforward recursive least squares method to avoid the effect of uncertainties of the Kalman filter. We discuss the model differences between combined system positioning and single-system positioning and verify that the combining observations of different systems should start to be used after clock biases have been reduced, respectively. Moreover, as to rising and setting of satellites in multi-system differential positioning, we propose to use matrix transform to separate the setting satellites of combined systems at an epoch. This can avoid the correlation of initial integer ambiguity vectors of different systems. The experimental results show that the proposed method can handle the change of satellites automatically and combine multiple systems for reliable and accuracy differential positioning. The method especially outperforms the basic single-system orthogonal transformation positioning and traditional multi-system double-difference positioning in a complex environment.

GPS/BeiDou observations from 16 reference stations are processed in the zero-difference mode. A least-squares algorithm is developed to determine the vertical total electron content (VTEC) bi-linear function parameters for a 15-minute time interval. The Kriging interpolation method is used to estimate the VTEC values at a 1 °×1 ° grid. The resulting RIMs are validated for PPP applications using GNSS observations from another set of stations. The SF-PPP accuracy and convergence time obtained through the proposed RIMs are computed and compared with those obtained through the international GNSS service global ionospheric maps (IGS-GIM). The results show that the RIMs speed up the convergence time and enhance the overall positioning accuracy in comparison with the IGS-GIM model, particularly the combined GPS/BeiDou-based model.
