These orbits show improved quality, as compared with GFZ previous (VER6) orbits derived in 2013. Improved macromodels reduce root mean square (RMS) fits of satellite laser ranging (SLR) observations by 2.6%, 6.9%, and 7% for TOPEX/Poseidon, Jason-1, and Jason-2, respectively. Applying Vienna Mapping Functions 1 instead of Hopfield model for tropospheric correction of Doppler Orbitography and Radiopositioning Integrated by Satellite (DORIS) observations reduces RMS fits of SLR observations by 2%–2.4% and those of DORIS observations by 2.6% for Envisat and Jason satellites. Using satellite true attitude instead of models improves Jason-1 SLR RMS fits by 41% from July 2012 until July 2013. The VER11 orbits indicate the mean values of the SLR RMS fits between 1.2 and 2.1 cm for the different missions. The internal orbit consistency in the radial direction is between 0.5 and 1.9 cm. The global mean sea level trend for the period 1993–2014 from TOPEX, Jason-1, and Jason-2 is 2.8 and 3.0 mm/year using GFZ VER6 and VER11 orbits, respectively. Regionally, the decadal trends from GFZ VER11 and external orbits vary in the order of 1 mm/year.

Using DORIS measurements for modeling the vertical total electron content of the Earth’s ionosphere / Denise Dettmering in Journal of geodesy, vol 88 n° 12 (December 2014)

Schmidt, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : pp 1131 - 1143 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] données DORIS [Termes IGN] électron [Termes IGN] ionosphère [Termes IGN] teneur totale en électrons Résumé : (Auteur) The Doppler orbitography and radiopositioning integrated by satellite (DORIS) system was originally developed for precise orbit determination of low Earth orbiting (LEO) satellites. Beyond that, it is highly qualified for modeling the distribution of electrons within the Earth’s ionosphere. It measures with two frequencies in L-band with a relative frequency ratio close to 5. Since the terrestrial ground beacons are distributed quite homogeneously and several LEOs are equipped with modern receivers, a good applicability for global vertical total electron content (VTEC) modeling can be expected. This paper investigates the capability of DORIS dual-frequency phase observations for deriving VTEC and the contribution of these data to global VTEC modeling. The DORIS preprocessing is performed similar to commonly used global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) preprocessing. However, the absolute DORIS VTEC level is taken from global ionospheric maps (GIM) provided by the International GNSS Service (IGS) as the DORIS data contain no absolute information. DORIS-derived VTEC values show good consistency with IGS GIMs with a RMS between 2 and 3 total electron content units (TECU) depending on solar activity which can be reduced to less than 2 TECU when using only observations with elevation angles higher than 50∘ . The combination of DORIS VTEC with data from other space-geodetic measurement techniques improves the accuracy of global VTEC models significantly. If DORIS VTEC data is used to update IGS GIMs, an improvement of up to 12% can be achieved. The accuracy directly beneath the DORIS satellites’ ground-tracks ranges between 1.5 and 3.5 TECU assuming a precision of 2.5 TECU for altimeter-derived VTEC values which have been used for validation purposes.
