Note générale : bibliographie Diese Arbeit ist gleichzeitig veröffentlicht in:Wissenschaftliche Arbeiten der Fachrichtung Geodäsie und Geoinformatik der Universität Hannover ISSN 0174-1454, Nr. 368, Hannover 2021 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Navigation et positionnement [Termes IGN] antenne GNSS [Termes IGN] étalonnage d'instrument [Termes IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes IGN] téléphone intelligent Résumé : (auteur) Low-cost receivers providing Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) pseudorange and carrier phase raw measurements for multiple frequencies and multiple GNSS constellations have become available on the market in the last years. This significantly has increased the number of devices equipped with the necessary sensors to perform precise GNSS positioning. GNSS pseudorange and carrier phase are used to compute user positions. While both observations are affected by different error sources, e.g. the passage through the atmosphere, only the carrier-phase has an ambiguous nature. The resolution of this ambiguity is a crucial factor to reach fast and highly precise GNSS-based positioning. Currently, several smartphones are equipped with a dual-frequency, multi-constellation receiver. The access to Android-based GNSS raw measurements has become a strong motivation to investigate the feasibility of smartphone-based high-accuracy positioning. The quality of smartphone GNSS measurements has been analyzed, suggesting that they often suffer from low signal-to-noise, inhomogeneous antenna gain and high levels of multipath. This workshows how to tackle several of the currently present obstacles and demonstrates centimeter-level positioning with a low-cost GNSS antenna and a low-cost GNSS receiver built into an off-the-shelf smartphone. Since the beginning of the research in smartphone-based positioning, the device’s GNSS antenna has been recognized as one of the main limitations. Besides Multipath (MP), the antenna radiation pattern is the main site-dependent error source of GNSS observations. An absolute antenna calibration has been performed for the dual-frequency smartphone HuaweiMate20X. Antenna Phase Center Offset (PCO), and Variations (PCV ) have been estimated to correct for the antenna impact on the L1 and L5 phase observations. Accordingly, the relevance of considering the individual PCO and PCV for the two frequencies is shown. The PCV patterns indicate absolute values up to 2 cm and 4 cm for L1 and L5, respectively. The impactof antenna corrections has been assessed in different multipath environments using a high-accuracy positioning algorithm employing an uncombined observation model and applying Ambiguity Resolution (AR). Experiments both in zero-baseline and short-baseline configurations have been performed. Instantaneous AR in the zero-baseline setup has been demonstrated, showing the potential for cm-level positioning with low-cost sensors available inside smartphones. In short-baselines configurations, no reliable AR is achieved without antenna corrections. However, after correcting for PCV, successful AR is demonstrated for a smartphone placed in a low multipath environment on the ground of a soccer field. For a rooftop open-skytest case with large multipath, AR was successful in 19 out of 35 data-sets. Overall, the antenna calibration is demonstrated being an asset for smartphone-based positioning with AR,showing cm-level 2D Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). In GNSS-based positioning, a user within a region covered by a network of reference stations can take advantage of the network-estimated augmentation parameters. Among the GNSS error sources, atmospheric delays have a strong impact on the positioning performance and the ability to resolve ambiguities. State Space Representation (SSR) atmospheric corrections, i.e. tropospheric and ionospheric delays, are commonly estimated for the approximate user position by interpolation from values calculated for the reference stations. Widely used interpolation techniques are Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW), Ordinary Kriging (OK)and Weighted Least Squares (WLS). The interpolation quality of such techniques during severe weather events and Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances (TIDs) is analyzed. To improve the interpolation performance during such events, modified WLS methods taking advantage of the physical atmospheric behavior are proposed. To support this interpolation approach, external information from Numerical Weather Models (NWM) for tropospheric interpolation and from TID modeling for ionospheric interpolation is introduced to the algorithms. The interpolation is assessed using simulated data (considering artificial and real network geometries), and real SSR parameters generated by network computation of GNSS measurements. As examples, two severe weather events in northern Europe in 2017 and one TID eventover Japan in 2019 have been analyzed. The interpolation of SSR Zenith Tropospheric Delay(ZTD) and ionospheric parameters is evaluated. Considering the reference station positions as rover locations, the modified WLS approach marks a lower RMSE in up to 80% of the cases during sharp weather fluctuations. Also, the average error can be decreased in 64% of the cases during the TID event investigated. Improvements up to factors larger than two are observed. Furthermore, specific cases are isolated, showing particular ZTD variations where significant errors (e.g. larger than 1 cm) can be reduced by up to 20% of the total amount. As a final product of the analysis, tropospheric and ionospheric messages are proposed. The messages contain the information needed to implement the suggested interpolation. Along with the need for accurate atmospheric models, the concept of consistency in the SSR corrections is crucial. A format that can transport all the SSR corrections estimated by a network is the Geo++ SSR format (SSRZ). Exploiting the features of the SSRZ format, the impact of an error in the transported ionospheric parameters is investigated. It is shown that the position estimation strongly depends on the ionospheric modeling and mismodeling can result in cm level errors, especially in the height component.

Soil moisture monitoring is one of the most important applications of the GNSS-IR technique. This manuscript presents the main ideas and implementation decisions needed to write the Python code for software tools that transform RINEX format observation and navigation files into an appropriate format for GNSS-IR (which includes the SNR observations and the azimuth and elevation of the satellites) and to determine the reflection height and the adjusted phase and amplitude values of the interferometric wave for each individual satellite track. The main goal of the manuscript is to share the software with the scientific community to introduce new users to the GNSS-IR technique.

GNSS scale determination using calibrated receiver and Galileo satellite antenna patterns / Arturo Villiger in Journal of geodesy, vol 94 n° 9 (September 2020)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 94 n° 9 (September 2020) . - n° 93 Titre : GNSS scale determination using calibrated receiver and Galileo satellite antenna patterns Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Arturo Villiger, Auteur ; Rolf Dach, Auteur ; Stefan Schaer, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : n° 93 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Systèmes de référence et réseaux [Termes IGN] antenne Galileo [Termes IGN] centre de phase [Termes IGN] chambre anéchoïque [Termes IGN] étalonnage d'instrument [Termes IGN] International Terrestrial Reference Frame [Termes IGN] métadonnées [Termes IGN] positionnement par ITGB [Termes IGN] positionnement par télémétrie laser sur satellite [Termes IGN] réseau géodésique terrestre [Termes IGN] robot Résumé : (auteur) The reference frame of a global terrestrial network is defined by the origin, the orientation and the scale. The origin of the ITRF2014 is defined by the ILRS long-term solution, the orientation by no-net rotation conditions w.r.t. the previous reference frame (ITRF2008), and the scale by the mean values from global VLBI and SLR solution series (Altamimi et al. in J Geophys Res Solid Earth 121:6109–6131, 2016). With the release of the Galileo satellite antenna phase center offsets (PCO) w.r.t. the satellites center of mass (GSA in Galileo IOV and FOC satellite metadata, 2019) and the availability of new ground antenna calibrations for GNSS receivers, based on anechoic chamber measurements or on robot calibrations, GNSS global network solutions qualify to contribute to the scale determination of terrestrial networks, as well. Our analysis is based on global multi-GNSS solutions of the years 2017 and 2018 and may be seen as “proof of concept” for the contribution of GNSS data to the scale determination of the terrestrial reference frame. In a first step, the currently used Galileo PCO estimations (Steigenberger et al. in J Geod 90:773–785, 2016) are compared to the released PCO values, which show discrepancies on the decimeter-level. Eventually, the published Galileo PCOs are used in an experimental solution as known values. GNSS-specific PCOs are estimated, as well, for GPS and GLONASS, together with the “standard” parameters set up in global GNSS solutions. From the estimated network coordinates, a time series of daily scale parameters of the terrestrial network is extracted, which shows an offset of the order of 1 ppb (parts per billion, corresponding to a height difference of 6.4 mm on the Earth’s surface) w.r.t. to the ITRF2014 network and an annual variation with an amplitude of about 0.3 ppb.

Antenna phase center correction differences from robot and chamber calibrations: the case study LEIAR25 / Grzegorz Krzan in GPS solutions, vol 24 n° 2 (April 2020)  

Public [article]  inGPS solutions > vol 24 n° 2 (April 2020) Titre : Antenna phase center correction differences from robot and chamber calibrations: the case study LEIAR25 Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Grzegorz Krzan, Auteur ; Karol Dawidowicz, Auteur ; Pawel Wielgosz, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] antenne GLONASS [Termes IGN] antenne GNSS [Termes IGN] antenne GPS [Termes IGN] centre de phase [Termes IGN] chambre anéchoïque [Termes IGN] correction du signal [Termes IGN] étalonnage d'instrument [Termes IGN] instrumentation Leica [Termes IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes IGN] robot [Termes IGN] série temporelle [Termes IGN] signal GNSS Résumé : (auteur) In recent years, the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) have been intensively modernized, resulting in the introduction of new carrier frequencies for GPS and GLONASS and the development of new satellite systems such as Galileo and BeiDou (BDS). For this reason, the absolute field antenna calibrations performed so far for the two legacy carrier frequencies, the GPS and GLONASS, seem to be insufficient. Hence, all antennas will require a re-calibration of their phase center variations for the new signals to ensure the highest measurement accuracy. Currently, two absolute calibration methods are used to calibrate GNSS antennas: field calibration using a robot and calibration in an anechoic chamber. Unfortunately, differences in these methodologies also result in a disparity in the obtained antenna phase center corrections (PCC). Therefore, we analyze the differences between individual PCC obtained with these two methods, specifically for the Leica AR-25 antenna model (LEIAR25). In addition, the influence of PCC differences on the GNSS-derived position time series for 19 EUREF Permanent GNSS Network (EPN) stations was also assessed. The results show that the calibration method has a noticeable impact on PCC models. PCC differences determined for the ionosphere-free combination may reach up over 20 mm and can be transferred to the position domain. Further tests concerning the positioning accuracy showed that for horizontal coordinates differences between solutions were mostly below 1 mm, exceeding 2 mm only at two stations for the GLONASS solution. However, the height component differences exceeded 5 mm for four, six and six stations out of 19 for the GPS, GLONASS and Galileo solutions, respectively. These differences are strongly dependent on large L2 calibration differences.
