[Termes IGN] teneur verticale totale en électronsRésumé : (auteur) The computation of vertical total electron content (VTEC) maps has become an important issue gradually for the international GNSS service. Given the current literature reports, little research is involved in the quantitative analysis of each error of the VTEC map and the spatiotemporal characteristic of global VTEC accuracy. Based on the single layer model and sphere harmonic function, we propose an approach using simulated GPS data to comprehensively verify the accuracy of the VTEC map. The spatiotemporal characteristic of global VTEC accuracy and the errors induced by different processing steps, i.e., carrier phase to code leveling, mapping function (MF), DCB estimation and coefficient fitting, are analyzed and discussed in detail. In addition, the effect of solar activity on the accuracy of the global VTEC map, MF and DCB estimation has been discussed. The results suggest: First, it is found that the MF error at sunrise is more significant than that at sunset, and this important characteristic can be proven based on the analysis of theory and ionospheric radio occultation and VTEC measurements; second, the MF is the most significant error source in the VTEC processing for regions with dense and homogeneous distributed GPS stations, e.g., North America and Europe. The VTEC accuracy in these regions can be improved by 100% with the satellite elevation cutoff angle increasing from 12° to 30°; finally, compared with the global VTEC accuracy using 350 GPS stations observations, the accuracy is improved by 306% based on the double GPS stations with even distribution.
