The precise point positioning (PPP) technique, which can provide a global accurate positioning service using a single global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver, has attracted much attention. Nevertheless, due to the cycle slips and multipath effects in the GNSS signal, the performance of PPP is severely degraded in urban areas, which has a negative effect on the PPP/inertial navigation system (INS)/vision integrated navigation. Moreover, the carrier phase observations with un-modeled multipath cause false detection of small cycle slips and lead to deviation in the state variable estimation in PPP. Therefore, an effective cycle slip/multipath estimation, detection and mitigation (EDM) method is proposed. A clustering method is used to separate the cycle slips and multipath from the carrier phase observations aided by visual inertial odometry (VIO) positioning results. The influence of the carrier phase multipath on state variable estimation is reduced by adjusting the stochastic ambiguity model in the Kalman filter. The proposed EDM method is validated by vehicle experiments conducted in urban and freeway areas. Experimental results demonstrate that 0.2% cycle slip detection error is achieved by our method. Besides, the multipath estimation accuracy of EDM improves by more than 50% compared with the geometry-based (GB) method. Regarding positioning accuracy, the EDM method has a maximum of 72.2% and 63.2% improvement compared to traditional geometry-free (GF) and GB methods.

To obtain real-time GNSS satellite orbit and clock, three approaches exist currently, namely, the prediction-estimation approach, the prediction-correction approach and the estimation approach. Different from the former two approaches, which are based on the predicted orbit, the last approach estimates orbit and clock in an integrated way, thus it is the most rigorous one. However, the simultaneously estimation of both orbit and clock parameters makes it very time-consuming. In this contribution, the extended Kalman filter with parallel computation proposed for real-time GPS satellite clock estimation (Gao et al., 2017) is introduced to improve the computational efficiency. In the introduced method, the epoch observations are processed sequentially and the covariance update process is accelerated with the Open Multi-Processing. With observation data from about 70 globally distributed stations spanning days 001–003 of 2018, the real-time GPS orbit and clock are estimated for validation. The epoch average processing time of the introduced method achieves around 2.9 s on average with 16 CPU cores, while that of the traditional method without Open Multi-Processing is about 4.1 s. When compare the estimated orbit and clock to the IGS final products, the daily constellation-mean RMS of orbit achieve 2.7, 5.7, 4.9 cm for the radial, along-track and cross-track respectively, while the daily constellation-mean STD of the clock is about 0.10 ns. The numerical experiments indicate that the introduced method is able to provide real-time sub-decimeter GPS orbit and clock within 10.0 s considering the time for data collection and corrections broadcast.
