Analysis of altimeter data relies on highly-accurate knowledge of the orbital position and requires radial RMS orbit errors of less than 1.5 cm. For precise orbit determination (POD), the Sentinel-6A spacecraft is equipped with a dual-constellation GNSS receiver. We present the results of Sentinel-6A POD solutions for the first 6 months since launch and demonstrate a 1-cm consistency of ambiguity-fixed GPS-only and Galileo-only solutions with the dual-constellation product. A similar performance (1.3 cm 3D RMS) is achieved in the comparison of kinematic and reduced-dynamic orbits. While Galileo measurements exhibit 30–50% smaller RMS errors than those of GPS, the POD benefits most from the availability of an increased number of satellites in the combined dual-frequency solution. Considering obvious uncertainties in the pre-mission calibration of the GNSS receiver antenna, an independent inflight calibration of the phase centers for GPS and Galileo signal frequencies is required. As such, Galileo observations cannot provide independent scale information and the estimated orbital height is ultimately driven by the employed forces models and knowledge of the center-of-mass location within the spacecraft. Using satellite laser ranging (SLR) from selected high-performance stations, a better than 1 cm RMS consistency of SLR normal points with the GNSS-based orbits is obtained, which further improves to 6 mm RMS when adjusting site-specific corrections to station positions and ranging biases. For the radial orbit component, a bias of less than 1 mm is found from the SLR analysis relative to the mean height of 13 high-performance SLR stations. Overall, the reduced-dynamic orbit determination based on GPS and Galileo tracking is considered to readily meet the altimetry-related Sentinel-6 mission needs for RMS height errors of less than 1.5 cm.

Precise orbit determination of the Sentinel-3A altimetry satellite using ambiguity-fixed GPS carrier phase observations / Oliver Montenbruck in Journal of geodesy, vol 92 n° 7 (July 2018)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 92 n° 7 (July 2018) . - pp 711 - 726 Titre : Precise orbit determination of the Sentinel-3A altimetry satellite using ambiguity-fixed GPS carrier phase observations Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Oliver Montenbruck, Auteur ; Stefan Hackel, Auteur ; Adrian Jäggi, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : pp 711 - 726 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Techniques orbitales [Termes IGN] données altimétriques [Termes IGN] double différence [Termes IGN] orbitographie [Termes IGN] phase [Termes IGN] Sentinel-3 Résumé : (Auteur) The Sentinel-3 mission takes routine measurements of sea surface heights and depends crucially on accurate and precise knowledge of the spacecraft. Orbit determination with a targeted uncertainty of less than 2 cm in radial direction is supported through an onboard Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, a Doppler Orbitography and Radiopositioning Integrated by Satellite instrument, and a complementary laser retroreflector for satellite laser ranging. Within this study, the potential of ambiguity fixing for GPS-only precise orbit determination (POD) of the Sentinel-3 spacecraft is assessed. A refined strategy for carrier phase generation out of low-level measurements is employed to cope with half-cycle ambiguities in the tracking of the Sentinel-3 GPS receiver that have so far inhibited ambiguity-fixed POD solutions. Rather than explicitly fixing double-difference phase ambiguities with respect to a network of terrestrial reference stations, a single-receiver ambiguity resolution concept is employed that builds on dedicated GPS orbit, clock, and wide-lane bias products provided by the CNES/CLS (Centre National d’Études Spatiales/Collecte Localisation Satellites) analysis center of the International GNSS Service. Compared to float ambiguity solutions, a notably improved precision can be inferred from laser ranging residuals. These decrease from roughly 9 mm down to 5 mm standard deviation for high-grade stations on average over low and high elevations. Furthermore, the ambiguity-fixed orbits offer a substantially improved cross-track accuracy and help to identify lateral offsets in the GPS antenna or center-of-mass (CoM) location. With respect to altimetry, the improved orbit precision also benefits the global consistency of sea surface measurements. However, modeling of the absolute height continues to rely on proper dynamical models for the spacecraft motion as well as ground calibrations for the relative position of the altimeter reference point and the CoM.

Galileo status: orbits, clocks, and positioning / Peter Steigenberger in GPS solutions, vol 21 n° 2 (April 2017)  

Public [article]  inGPS solutions > vol 21 n° 2 (April 2017) . - pp 319 – 331 Titre : Galileo status: orbits, clocks, and positioning Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Peter Steigenberger, Auteur ; Oliver Montenbruck, Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp 319 – 331 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] constellation Galileo [Termes IGN] données Galileo [Termes IGN] Galileo [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis Résumé : (auteur) The European Global Navigation Satellite System Galileo is close to declaration of initial services. The current constellation comprises a total of 12 active satellites, four of them belonging to the first generation of In-Orbit Validation satellites, while the other eight are Full Operational Capability (FOC) satellites. Although the first pair of FOC satellites suffered from a launch anomaly resulting in an elliptical orbit, these satellites can be used for scientific applications without relevant limitations. The quality of broadcast orbits and clocks has significantly improved since the beginning of routine transmissions and has reached a signal-in-space range error of 30 cm. Precise orbit products generated by the scientific community achieve an accuracy of about 5 cm if appropriate models for the solar radiation pressure are applied. The latter is also important for an assessment of the clock stability as orbit errors are mapped to the apparent clock. Dual-frequency single point positioning with broadcast orbits and clocks of nine Galileo satellites that have so far been declared healthy already enables an accuracy at a few meters. Galileo-only precise point positioning approaches a precision of 2 cm in static mode using daily solutions.

Precision on board : orbit determination of LEO satellites with real-time corrections / André Hauschild in GPS world, vol 28 n° 4 (April 2017)

Public [article]  inGPS world > vol 28 n° 4 (April 2017) . - pp 42 - 47 Titre : Precision on board : orbit determination of LEO satellites with real-time corrections Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : André Hauschild, Auteur ; Javier Tegedor, Auteur ; Oliver Montenbruck, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp 42 - 47 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Techniques orbitales [Termes IGN] éphémérides de satellite [Termes IGN] orbite basse [Termes IGN] orbitographie [Termes IGN] précision du positionnement [Termes IGN] simulation [Termes IGN] temps réel Résumé : (Auteur) Precise point positioning (PPP) with real-time orbit and clock correction streams has become an established technique over the past decade. Several free as well as commercial sources of precise correction streams are available through the internet or via a satellite link to geostationary satellites. Many applications exist for land, air and sea applications, but use of real-time corrections for precise positioning has not extended into orbit yet, although a number of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite missions have a demand for precise orbit determination (POD). Mission requirements often allow for a relatively high latency for the availability of the precise orbit products, thus ground-based, near-real-time processing is sufficient. However, future satellites with altimeter and radio-occultation payloads may require real-time POD to enable onboard processing of science data for short-term forecasting or now-casting of meteorology data, open-loop instrument operations of radar payloads, or quick-look onboard science data generation. Also, precise real-time orbit information may be used for constellation maintenance of satellite formations. Despite early technology readiness demonstrations by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory carried out one decade ago to transmit real-time corrections via geostationary relay satellites to LEO spacecraft, this technique has so far not been implemented and used in a space mission.
