For this reason, the absolute field antenna calibrations performed so far for the two legacy carrier frequencies, the GPS and GLONASS, seem to be insufficient. Hence, all antennas will require a re-calibration of their phase center variations for the new signals to ensure the highest measurement accuracy. Currently, two absolute calibration methods are used to calibrate GNSS antennas: field calibration using a robot and calibration in an anechoic chamber. Unfortunately, differences in these methodologies also result in a disparity in the obtained antenna phase center corrections (PCC). Therefore, we analyze the differences between individual PCC obtained with these two methods, specifically for the Leica AR-25 antenna model (LEIAR25). In addition, the influence of PCC differences on the GNSS-derived position time series for 19 EUREF Permanent GNSS Network (EPN) stations was also assessed. The results show that the calibration method has a noticeable impact on PCC models. PCC differences determined for the ionosphere-free combination may reach up over 20 mm and can be transferred to the position domain. Further tests concerning the positioning accuracy showed that for horizontal coordinates differences between solutions were mostly below 1 mm, exceeding 2 mm only at two stations for the GLONASS solution. However, the height component differences exceeded 5 mm for four, six and six stations out of 19 for the GPS, GLONASS and Galileo solutions, respectively. These differences are strongly dependent on large L2 calibration differences.

The impact of second-order ionospheric delays on the ZWD estimation with GPS and BDS measurements / Shaocheng Zhang in GPS solutions, vol 24 n° 2 (April 2020)

We calculated the second-order ionospheric delays (I2) and analyzed the impact on the ZWD estimation with GPS-only and combined GPS/BDS observations. The undifferenced PPP model with fixed coordinates was used to estimate the ZWD and horizontal gradients. The method of blockwise sequential least squares was utilized to eliminate the receiver clock biases and compute the I2 impact on the ZWDs. The I2 delays on each GNSS satellite observations were calculated with the CODE final TEC map and the 12th generation of the international geomagnetic reference field (IGRF-12) model. The statistical results with the actual observation geometry show that the I2 delays can reach over 10 mm during the daytime, and the corresponding impact on the estimated ZWD can reach up to several millimeters. At station HKWS, the maximum I2 impact with GPS only reaches up to 3.1 mm and is still 2.4 mm when both GPS and BDS observations are used. The simulated I2 impact on the ZWD could reach several millimeters, even though the TEC and geomagnetic values were calculated from relatively moderate background models. Compared with the 5–10 mm precision of real-time ZWD estimation, the I2 delays must not be ignored, especially during high VTEC periods.

Performance of Galileo precise time and frequency transfer models using quad-frequency carrier phase observations / Pengfei Zhang in GPS solutions, vol 24 n° 2 (April 2020)

We focus on the performance of Galileo time and frequency transfer using the E1, E5a, E5b and E5 observations. Dual-frequency, triple-frequency and quad-frequency models for precise time and frequency transfer with different Galileo observations are proposed. Four time and transfer links between international time laboratories are used to assess the performances of different models in terms of time link noise level and frequency stability indicators. The average RMS values of the smoothed residuals of the clock difference series are 0.033 ns, 0.033 ns and 0.034 ns for the dual-frequency, triple-frequency and quad-frequency models with four time links, respectively. With respect to frequency stability, the average stability values at 15,360 s are 9.51 × 10−15, 9.46 × 10−15 and 9.37 × 10−15 for the dual-frequency, triple-frequency and quad-frequency models with four time links, respectively. Moreover, although biases among different models and receiver the inter-frequency exist, their characteristics are relatively stable. Generally, the dual-/triple-/quad-frequency models show similar performance for those time links, and the quad-frequency models can provide significant potential for switching among and unifying the three multi-frequency solutions, as well as further enhancing the redundancy and reliability compared to the current dual-frequency time transfer method.

Because of problems such as dealing with a low-cost MEMS-based inertial sensors having a high level of uncertainty and imprecision, stochastic noise, a high-speed vehicle, high noisy real data, and long-term GPS signal outage during the real-time flight test, the advantage is taken for some approaches in different steps: (1) utilizing discrete wavelet transform technique to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio in raw and noisy inertial sensor signals and attenuate high-frequency noise as a preprocessing phase to prepare more accurate data for the proposed model and (2) employing adaptive neural subtractive clustering fuzzy inference system (ANSCFIS) which combines and extracts the best feature of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), and the subtractive clustering algorithm with fewer rules than the ANFIS method, aiming to improve a more efficient, accurate, and especially a faster method which enhances the prediction accuracy and speeds up the positioning system. The achieved accuracies for the proposed model are discussed and compared with the extended Kalman filter (EKF), ANFIS, and ANSCFIS which are implemented and tested experimentally using a high-speed vehicle in three GPS blockages. The proposed model shows considerable improvements in high-speed navigation using low-cost MEMS-based inertial sensors in case of long-term GPS blockage.

Performance of real-time undifferenced precise positioning assisted by remote IGS multi-GNSS stations / Zhiqiang Liu in GPS solutions, vol 24 n° 2 (April 2020)

We present an alternative approach of real-time undifferenced precise positioning (RUP) that, by combining satellite clock estimation and precise point positioning based on the extended Kalman filter, is independent of external satellite clock corrections. The approach is evaluated in simulated real time with the assistance of a variable number of IGS multi-GNSS stations located between 1359.7 and 4852.5 km from the users. The results show that even with a single auxiliary IGS station, RUP is still feasible and able to retain centimeter-level positioning accuracy. Typically, with three auxiliary IGS stations about 2000–3000 km away, an accuracy of about 2 cm in the horizontal and 5 cm in the vertical can be achieved. The performance of RUP is comparable to that of PPP using 5-s satellite clock products and notably exhibits superior short-term precision in dealing with high-rate (1 Hz) GPS/GLONASS observations. The addition of GLONASS observations reduces the convergence time by 56.9% and improves the 3-D position accuracy by 31.8% while increasing the processing latency by a factor of about 1.6. Employing three IGS stations over 2400 km away from the epicenter, RUP is applied for the rapid determination of coseismic displacements and waveforms for the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake, yielding highly consistent results compared to those obtained from post-processed PPP in the global reference frame. We also explore its potential in facilitating real-time online services in terms of real-time precise positioning, zenith tropospheric delay retrieving, and satellite clock estimation.

We assess these GNSS geocenter motion estimates by comparison with independent estimates from satellite laser ranging (SLR). The GNSS geocenter time series exhibit correlated noise which is better represented by a white plus power–law noise model in the X and Y directions, and by a white plus first-order autoregressive (or generalized Gauss–Markov) noise model in the Z direction. The GNSS geocenter time series include expected seasonal variations, but also spurious draconitic signals, particularly in the Z direction. GNSS annual geocenter motion estimates are in reasonable agreement with SLR estimates in the X and Y directions. In the Z direction, however, the annual signals derived from the IGS solutions disagree with SLR estimates, except for three particular ACs. This suggests that the different orbit modeling strategies used by these ACs may constitute an improvement over the conventional strategy employed by the other ACs. The background noise in GNSS and SLR geocenter time series finally appears to be correlated, suggesting that it might partly reflect real, aperiodic geocenter motion.
