The third-generation BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS-3) can transmit B1I (1561.098 MHz), B3I (1268.52 MHz), B1C (1575.42 MHz), B2a (1176.45 MHz), B2b (1207.14 MHz) and B2ab (1191.795 MHz) signals. To make full use of the advantage of BDS-3 multi-frequency signals and improve BDS-3 service performance, we present some new quad-frequency satellite clock estimation techniques using B1I/B3I/B1C/B2a signals, which are QFIF0 model combining B1I/B3I and B1C/B2a IF observables, QFIF1 model combining the B1I/B3I, B3I/B1C and B1I/B2a IF observables, QFIF2 model combining B1I/B3I and B1I/B3I/B1C/B2a IF observables, and quad-frequency uncombined QFUC model, respectively. These new techniques only improve the performance of satellite clock estimation by fully utilizing the BDS-3 multi-frequency observations on the premise of ensuring the dual-frequency IF datum but also obtain the corresponding inter-frequency clock bias (IFCB) simultaneously. The quad-frequency satellite clock offsets are evaluated in terms of the clock offset precision, the modified Allan deviation (MDEV) and precise point positioning (PPP) performances. The new methods can improve the performances of the estimated clock offsets compared with the traditional dual-frequency IF model. The precision for the estimated clock offsets using quad-frequency satellite clock estimation models can be improved by 13–26% in terms of standard deviation (STD). The improvement of frequency stability ranges from 0 to 24%, especially for the short-term stability, which can reach 12% and 24% for B1I/B3I and B1C/B2a clock offsets, respectively. Similarly, the corresponding PPP performance has also been better improved with respect to those of using traditional dual-frequency IF clock offsets. Thus, the proposed quad-frequency satellite clock estimation techniques can be well applied into precise satellite clock estimation.

Precise orbit determination for BDS-3 GEO satellites enhanced by intersatellite links / Xiaojie Li in GPS solutions, vol 27 n° 1 (January 2023)  

Public [article]  inGPS solutions > vol 27 n° 1 (January 2023) . - n° 8 Titre : Precise orbit determination for BDS-3 GEO satellites enhanced by intersatellite links Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Xiaojie Li, Auteur ; Xiaogong Hu, Auteur ; Rui Guo, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : n° 8 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Techniques orbitales [Termes IGN] constellation BeiDou [Termes IGN] décalage d'horloge [Termes IGN] orbite géostationnaire [Termes IGN] orbite précise [Termes IGN] orbitographie [Termes IGN] qualité des données Résumé : (auteur) Geostationary orbit (GEO) satellites are an integral part of the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS). Precise orbit determination (POD) for GEO satellites is difficult due to their geostationary characteristics. The orbit determination accuracy that can be achieved based on regional tracking stations in China cannot satisfy high-precision service requirements. The third generation of BDS (BDS-3) is the first global navigation satellite system that synergistically uses regional monitoring stations and global intersatellite links (ISLs) to realize global service. In this study, the quality of ISL data is analyzed based on the residuals of the intersatellite clock offset and the observed-minus-computed residuals of the ISL data. The orbit determination accuracy is assessed based on the observation residuals, the multiday consistency of the ISL time delays, overlapping orbit comparison, the user equivalent range error (UERE), and the accuracy of the clock offset. The results show that the ISL measurement noise for the GEO satellites is 3 cm, and the multiday consistency accuracy of the ISL time delay is better than 0.07 ns. Compared to the satellite-to-ground link (SGL)-based orbit determination method, the root mean square (RMS) three-dimensional (3D) position error of the overlapping orbit differences (OODs) is improved from 1.11 to 0.22 m with the combined SGL- and ISL-based method. Simultaneously, the UERE improves from 0.57 to 0.19 m, and the accuracy of the satellite clock offset improves from 1.09 to 0.61 ns.

On the relation of GNSS phase center offsets and the terrestrial reference frame scale: a semi-analytical analysis / Oliver Montenbruck in Journal of geodesy, vol 96 n° 11 (November 2022)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 96 n° 11 (November 2022) . - n° 90 Titre : On the relation of GNSS phase center offsets and the terrestrial reference frame scale: a semi-analytical analysis Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Oliver Montenbruck, Auteur ; Peter Steigenberger, Auteur ; Arturo Villiger, Auteur ; Paul Rebischung , Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 90 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] antenne GNSS [Termes IGN] centre de phase [Termes IGN] décalage d'horloge [Termes IGN] hauteur (coordonnée) [Termes IGN] International Terrestrial Reference Frame [Termes IGN] orbitographie [Termes IGN] phase [Termes IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes IGN] station GNSS Résumé : (auteur) Phase center offsets (PCOs) of global navigation satellites systems (GNSS) transmit antennas along the boresight axis introduce line-of-sight-dependent range changes in the modeling of GNSS observations that are strongly correlated with the estimated station heights. As a consequence, changes in the adopted PCOs impact the scale of GNSS-based realizations of the terrestrial reference frame (TRF). Vice versa, changes in the adopted TRF scale require corrections to the GNSS transmit antenna PCOs for consistent observation modeling. Early studies have determined an approximate value of α=−0.050 for the ratio of station height changes and satellite PCO changes in GPS orbit determination and phase center adjustment. However, this is mainly an empirical value and limited information is available on the actual PCO-scale relation and how it is influenced by other factors. In view of the recurring need to adjust the IGS antenna models to new ITRF scales, a semi-analytical model is developed to determine values of α for the four current GNSSs from first principles without a need for actual network data processing. Given the close coupling of satellite boresight angle and station zenith angle, satellite PCO changes are essentially compensated by a combination of station height, zenith troposphere delay, and receiver clock offset. As such, the value of α depends not only on the orbital altitude of the considered GNSS but also on the elevation-dependent distribution of GNSS observations and their weighting, as well as the elevation mask angle and the tropospheric mapping function. Based on the model, representative values of αGPS=−0.051, αGLO=−0.055, αGAL=−0.041, and αBDS-3=−0.046 are derived for GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou-3 at a 10∘ elevation cutoff angle. These values may vary by Δα≈0.003 depending on the specific model assumptions and data processing parameters in a precise orbit determination or precise point positioning. Likewise changes of about ±0.003 can be observed when varying the cutoff angle between 5∘ and 15∘.

An efficient method to compensate receiver clock jumps in real-time precise point positioning / Shaoguang Xu in Remote sensing, vol 14 n° 20 (October-2 2022)

The discontinuity may affect precise point positioning-related parameter estimation, including receiver clock error, position, troposphere and ionosphere parameters. It is important to note that these parameters can be used for timing, positioning, atmospheric inversion and so on. In response to this problem, the receiver clock jumps are divided into two types. The first one can be expressed by the carrier phase and pseudo range having the same scale jump, and the second one is that they are having different scale jumps. For the first type, if a small priori variance of receiver clock error is provided, it can affect the accuracy of ionospheric delay estimation both in static and kinematic mode, while in the latter mode, it also affects position estimation. However, if large process noise is provided, numerical problems may arise since other parameters’ process noises are usually small, it is proposed to use the single point positioning with pseudo ranges to provide a priori value of receiver clock error, and an empiric value is assigned to its prior variance, this handle can avoid the above problems. For the second type, instead of compensating so many raw observations in the traditional methods, it is proposed to compensate the ambiguities at the clock jump epochs only in a new method. The new method corrects the Melbourne–Wubbena (MW) combination firstly in order to avoid the misjudging of cycle slips for current epoch, and the second step is to compensate the corresponding ambiguities, then, after Kalman filtering, the MW and its mean should be corrected back in order to avoid the misjudging of cycle slips at the next epoch. This approach has the advantage of handling the clock jump epoch-wise and can avoid correcting the rest of the observations as the traditional methods used to. With the numerical validation examples both in static and kinematic modes, it shows the new method is simple but efficient for real time precise point positioning (PPP).
