In previous work, the satellite-and-station-specific slant total electron content (STEC) ionospheric corrections, derived from a regional reference network, are commonly used to augment single-frequency PPP for improving positioning accuracy and faster convergence. However, since the users are required to interpolate STEC ionospheric corrections from nearby reference stations, either duplex communication links should be established or all corrections of the reference network must be retrieved, which makes it inefficient to provide augmentation services to many users. Moreover, the regional tropospheric corrections are generally neglected in augmenting real-time single-frequency PPP. In this study, we present a method to estimate and represent tropospheric and ionospheric corrections from a regional reference network, which can be efficiently disseminated to users through a simplex communication link. First, the uncombined dual-frequency PPP, with external ionospheric constraints derived from international GNSS service predicted global ionospheric map, is used for estimating atmospheric delays with observations from a regional GNSS reference network. Then, the atmospheric delays are properly represented to facilitate real-time transmission by applying a polynomial model for the representation of zenith wet tropospheric corrections, and satellite-specific STEC maps for representing the slant ionospheric corrections. The above results in only simple communication links required to retrieve the regional atmospheric corrections for real-time single-frequency PPP augmentation. Observations from a regional network of 30 GNSS reference stations with inter-station distances of about 70 km during a 1-week-long period, including both quiet and active geomagnetic conditions, are used for generating the regional atmospheric corrections. The results indicate that the average root-mean-square errors of the obtained regional tropospheric and ionospheric corrections are better than 0.01 and 0.05 m when compared with those derived from dual-frequency uncombined PPP, respectively. The positioning accuracy of the single-frequency PPP augmented with regional atmospheric corrections is at 0.141 m horizontally and 0.206 m vertically under a 95% confidence level, a significant improvement compared to single-frequency PPP without atmospheric augmentation. The convergence time is also significantly reduced with 70.4% of the positioning sessions achieving instantaneous 3D convergence.

Reducing convergence time of precise point positioning with ionospheric constraints and receiver differential code bias modeling / Yan Xiang in Journal of geodesy, vol 94 n°1 (January 2020)

Different from the traditional PPP, the uncombined PPP method based on raw observations estimates ionospheric delays. When external ionospheric information is available, it can be applied as a constraint to help shorten the convergence time, as a result of the reduced correlation between the position and the ionospheric parameters. The receiver differential code biases (DCBs) will be a concern, however, when applying the external ionospheric information. For receiver DCBs, it is usually assumed that the biases can be absorbed by the receiver clock parameters. We have demonstrated that the receiver DCBs cannot be fully assimilated by one receiver code clock parameter because the receiver DCBs have different effects on the code and carrier phase measurements at any frequency. Additional parameters are necessary to model the receiver DCBs so that their effects on the positioning solution can be minimized. We developed an ionosphere-constrained PPP model to incorporate ionospheric total electron content (TEC) in the slant (STEC) and vertical (VTEC) when leveraging a regional network and global ionospheric maps (GIMs). Both static and kinematic experimental results show that the convergence time and the positioning accuracy can be improved significantly. Accuracies at the first epoch of 0.4 m for GIM constraints, and 0.2 m for the regional constraints, are achievable. The convergence time to 1 dm horizontal accuracy is reduced to 7.5 min at a 68% confidence level.

Consistency and analysis of ionospheric observables obtained from three precise point positioning models / Yan Xiang in Journal of geodesy, vol 93 n° 8 (August 2019)

The most widely used one is the geometry-free combination of carrier-phase smoothed code measurements. This method, however, introduces leveling errors that substantially degrade the performance of ionospheric modeling and bias estimation. To reduce leveling errors, precise point positioning (PPP) model is preferred for obtaining the ionospheric observables. We aim to investigate whether the ionospheric observables obtained from three different PPP models are consistent and how the PPP-based ionospheric observables relates to the smoothed code method. The paper begins by formulating the ionospheric observables. We then explain the statistical evaluation methods used for analyzing the bias terms derived from these methods and assessing the leveling errors from the carrier-phase smoothed code method. Numerical analysis is then conducted to compare the bias terms in the ionospheric observables and evaluate the leveling errors. The ionospheric observables based on the three PPP models show strong consistency. Compared to leveling errors in the carrier-phase smoothed code method, the leveling errors using the uncombined PPP model are significantly reduced up to five times.

Tight integration of INS/Stereo VO/Digital map for land vehicle navigation / Fei Liu in Photogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing, PERS, vol 84 n° 1 (January 2018)

In this method, the INS provides the dynamic information of the land vehicle, which is used to predict the position and attitude of cameras in order to obtain the predicted pixel coordinates of features on the image. The difference between the measured and predicted pixel coordinates is used to reduce the accumulated errors of INS. To implement the proposed method, an Extended Kalman filter (EKF) is first used to integrate the inertial and visual sensor data. The integrated solution of position, velocity and azimuth is then applied by fuzzy logic map matching (MM) to project the vehicle location on the correct road link. The projected position on the road link and the road link azimuth can finally be used to reduce the dead reckoning drifts. In this way, the accumulated system errors can be significantly reduced. The testing results indicate that the horizontal RMSE (root-mean-square-error) of the proposed method is less than 20 meters over a traveled distance of five kilometers and the relative horizontal error is below 0.4 percent.

Impacts of real-time satellite clock errors on GPS precise point positioning-based troposphere zenith delay estimation / Junbo Shi in Journal of geodesy, vol 89 n° 8 (August 2015)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 89 n° 8 (August 2015) . - pp 747-756 Titre : Impacts of real-time satellite clock errors on GPS precise point positioning-based troposphere zenith delay estimation Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Junbo Shi, Auteur ; Chaoqian Xu, Auteur ; Yihe Li, Auteur ; Yang Gao, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : pp 747-756 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] erreur corrélée au temps [Termes IGN] horloge atomique [Termes IGN] orbite précise [Termes IGN] positionnement cinématique en temps réel [Termes IGN] positionnement par GPS [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes IGN] temps réel [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement de données GNSS Résumé : (auteur) Global Positioning System (GPS) has become a cost-effective tool to determine troposphere zenith total delay (ZTD) with accuracy comparable to other atmospheric sensors such as the radiosonde, the water vapor radiometer, the radio occultation and so on. However, the high accuracy of GPS troposphere ZTD estimates relies on the precise satellite orbit and clock products available with various latencies. Although the International GNSS Service (IGS) can provide predicted orbit and clock products for real-time applications, the predicted clock accuracy of 3 ns cannot always guarantee the high accuracy of troposphere ZTD estimates. Such limitations could be overcome by the use of the newly launched IGS real-time service which provides ∼5 cm orbit and 0.2–1.0 ns (an equivalent range error of 6–30 cm) clock products in real time. Considering the relatively larger magnitude of the clock error than that of the orbit error, this paper investigates the effect of real-time satellite clock errors on the GPS precise point positioning (PPP)-based troposphere ZTD estimation. Meanwhile, how the real-time satellite clock errors impact the GPS PPP-based troposphere ZTD estimation has also been studied to obtain the most precise ZTD solutions. First, two types of real-time satellite clock products are assessed with respect to the IGS final clock product in terms of accuracy and precision. Second, the real-time GPS PPP-based troposphere ZTD estimation is conducted using data from 34 selected IGS stations over three independent weeks in April, July and October, 2013. Numerical results demonstrate that the precision, rather than the accuracy, of the real-time satellite clock products impacts the real-time PPP-based ZTD solutions more significantly. In other words, the real-time satellite clock product with better precision leads to more precise real-time PPP-based troposphere ZTD solutions. Therefore, it is suggested that users should select and apply real-time satellite products with better clock precision to obtain more consistent real-time PPP-based ZTD solutions.
