[Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement de données GNSSRésumé : (auteur) Double-difference (DD) analysis and precise point positioning (PPP) are two widely used processing approaches to analyze ground-based GNSS measurements. We investigate the quality of the zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD) estimates produced from both processing approaches for a regional network over 1 year and show that DD solutions contain more numerous and larger ZTD outliers. The accuracy of both DD and PPP solutions strongly depends on the data processing procedure and models. We analyze the impact of mapping functions, satellite orbit and clock products and ambiguity resolution (fixed vs. float) on ZTD estimates. The results are assessed from station position repeatability and ZTD differences with respect to the ERA5 reanalysis. As expected, mapping functions have the strongest impact, with VMF1 being more accurate than GMF. Surprisingly, the impact of the ambiguity resolution and satellite products is rather weak in the PPP solution. We speculate that this results from the fact that final satellite products have reached a high level of accuracy and that other error sources now dominate static PPP solutions. A time and frequency analysis reveal unprecedented spurious sub-daily signals in the ZTD time series, which occur at the frequency of the GPS satellite repeat period and its harmonics. This suggests that sub-daily GPS ZTD estimates contain a significant part of the residual modeling errors due to satellite orbits, tidal models, mapping functions and multipath, which still need to be improved.

[Termes IGN] temps de convergenceRésumé : (auteur) In precise satellite clock estimation, the satellite clock offsets absorb the pseudorange and carrier phase time-variant hardware delays. The dissimilarity of the satellite clock estimated with observations at different frequencies is termed the inter-frequency clock bias (IFCB). The bias inconsistency suggests that the simple ionospheric-free satellite clock cannot directly be applied to the multi-frequency carrier phase observations in multi-frequency precise point positioning (PPP). We propose the carrier phase time-variant observable-specific signal bias (OSB) concept and the corresponding estimation approach to solve this. The definition, rationality, reliability and validity of the carrier phase time-variant OSB are clarified. The new concept advantage is that a set of the carrier phase time-variant OSB values can directly amend on the carrier phase observations, and thereafter, the IFCB effect can be eliminated, which provides the flexibilities for the GNSS carrier phase observation handing. Datasets collected from 144 Multi-GNSS Experiment (MGEX) stations are adopted for the carrier phase time-variant OSB estimation and an analysis of its effect on the GNSS multi-frequency PPP performance. The various multi-frequency PPP models are tested and evaluated considering the carrier phase time-variant OSB correction. The results indicate that the GPS, BDS-2 and BDS-3 carrier phase time-variant OSB time series have the obvious amplitudes and the amplitudes of the Galileo and QZSS carrier phase time-variant OSB are small. The GPS and BDS-2 multi-frequency PPP performance is significantly enhanced when correcting the carrier phase time-variant OSB. The GPS-only kinematic ionospheric-float PPP exhibits the positioning accuracy of 1.0 cm, 2.2 cm and 2.6 cm in the north, east and up components when correcting the carrier phase time-variant OSB, whereas the positioning accuracy of the case without the correction is 1.4 cm, 2.8 cm and 3.7 cm in three directions, respectively. The mean convergence time of two dual-frequency and three triple-frequency BDS-2-only kinematic PPP is reduced by 5.0%, 4.9%, 5.4%, 4.7% and 4.6%, respectively, with the carrier phase time-variant OSB correction. The carrier phase time-variant OSB improvement on BDS-3-only multi-frequency PPP is not obvious owing to the relatively few available and stable carrier phase time-variant OSB values. The reliability, suitability and effectiveness of the GNSS carrier phase time-variant OSB are demonstrated.

[Termes IGN] trainRésumé : (auteur) A new GNSS/IMU tightly coupled positioning system is introduced to train positioning. 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.

[Termes IGN] trajet multipleRésumé : (auteur) Typically, navigation software processes global navigation satellite system (GNSS) phase observables along with the code observables to achieve high-precision positioning. However, the unmodeled code-related errors, typically multipath effects, may deteriorate the positioning performance. Such effects are well known for the second generation BeiDou navigation satellite system (BDS-2). To prevent this adverse effect on the state-of-the-art positioning technique, namely integer ambiguity resolution-enabled precise point positioning (PPP-RTK), we propose a multi-frequency phase-only PPP-RTK model. This model excludes the code observables and addresses the rank deficiency problem underlying the phase observation equations at the undifferenced and uncombined level. To verify the model, we collect five-day triple-frequency BDS 30-s data from a network of seven reference stations (about 112 km apart) to estimate the products on the network side. Based on these products, we conduct simulated dynamic positioning at a user station to test the phase-only PPP-RTK model and compare it with the customary code-plus-phase (CPP) model. The results show that the satellite phase biases, existing only at the third frequency, have a precision of better than two centimeters, while the precision of the satellite clock and ionospheric delay is better than eight centimeters. Due to the strong correlation between individual corrections, it is necessary to assess the quality of combined products, including the satellite clock, satellite phase bias and ionospheric delay, the precision of which is several millimeters to two centimeters, which is sufficiently precise for user positioning. Regarding BDS-2 positioning, the time-to-first-fix (TTFF) of the CPP PPP-RTK is 12 epochs, while it is only three epochs for the phase-only PPP-RTK. The reason why the CPP model underperforms the phase-only model is that the BDS-2 data collected are subject to notable code multipath. We show that the code multipath in the third-generation BDS (BDS-3) data is mild, so the CPP PPP-RTK achieves instantaneous centimeter-level positioning with a TTFF of one epoch. The BDS-3 phase-only PPP-RTK obtains virtually the same positioning results, but the TTFF is two epochs. When combining BDS-2 with BDS-3, the TTFF of both models remains unchanged compared to that of the BDS-3 solutions, implying that ambiguity resolution based on the stronger dual-system CPP model is robust to the BDS-2 code multipath. However, the ambiguity-float solution of the CPP PPP-RTK is adversely affected by the code multipath and requires 43 epochs to convergence, while its phase-only counterpart needs 36 epochs.

[Termes IGN] teneur verticale totale en électronsRésumé : (auteur) The widely used GNSS correction services for high precision positioning take advantage of accurate real-time TEC forecasting based on vertical total electron content (VTEC) maps. The methods for modeling and forecasting are mainly based on overly simplified assumptions, which in principle cannot reflect the real situations due to limitations of the mathematical formulations. Therefore, these methods cannot comprehensively capture the features of ionospheric TEC in spatial–temporal series. To overcome the problems caused by such assumptions, we combine ConvLSTM (convolutional long short-term memory) with spectrum analysis. The method allows the extraction of high-resolution spatial–temporal patterns of the ionospheric VTEC maps and accelerates the convergence time of neural networks. Extensive experiments have been carried out for short- and long-term forecasting and demonstrated that the performance of our method is better than other state-of-the-art models developed for various time series analysis methods. Based on the data from global ionospheric maps (GIMs) products, the results show that the root-mean-square error (RMSE) of global VTEC forecasting by our method substantially improves for two hours intervals over the years 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2019 compared to existing methods, specifically, 20–50% reduction on 1 or 2 h forecasting in terms of RMSE. In addition, the method is sufficient to support real-time forecasting since it takes less than one second to output global forecasting solutions. With these properties, we can facilitate real-time and highly accurate ionosphere correction services beneficial to numerous GNSS correct services and positioning terminals.
