Based on an analysis of received signal frequency coherence, a linearized mathematical model of the cross-frequency Doppler-assisted carrier phase tracking loop is built, a thermal noise jitter calculation equation for the assisted tracking loop is derived, and its dynamic stress response characteristics are examined. The loop design requirements for eliminating the influence of inter-frequency frequency bias are clarified, as are the cross-frequency assist signal selection criteria. Monte Carlo simulations and preliminary field tests validate the theoretical results using the B1C pilot signal-aided tracking B2b signal of the MEO satellite in the BeiDou satellite navigation system (BDS). Experimental results show that the carrier phase tracking threshold of the B2b signal can be reduced by about 4 dB.

Design and performance evaluation of a novel ranging signal based on an LEO satellite communication constellation / Jingfang Su in Geo-spatial Information Science, vol 26 n° 1 (March 2023)

In the context of the existing Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) communication systems, this paper proposes a new ranging signal design method based on an LEO satellite communication constellation. The LEO Satellite Communication Constellation Block-type Pilot (LSCC-BPR) signal is superimposed on the communication signal in a block-type form and occupies some of the subcarriers of the OFDM signal for transmission, thus ensuring the continuity of the ranging pilot signal in the time and frequency domains. Joint estimation in the time and frequency domains is performed to obtain the relevant distance value, and the ranging accuracy and communication resource utilization rate are determined. To characterize the ranging performance, the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) is selected as an evaluation criterion. Simulations show that when the number of pilots is 2048 and the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is 0 dB, the ranging accuracy can reach 0.8 m, and the pilot occupies only 50% of the communication subcarriers, thus improving the utilization of communication resources and meeting the public demand for communication and location services.

Its temporal correlations are well modeled and routinely taken into account when deriving parameters of interest like station velocities. On the other hand, a general model of the spatial correlations in GNSS time series is lacking, and they are usually ignored, although their consideration could benefit several purposes such as offset detection, velocity estimation or spatial filtering. In order to improve the realism of current spatio-temporal correlation models, we investigate in this study how the spatial correlations of GNSS time series vary with the temporal frequency. A frequency-dependent measure of the spatial correlations is therefore introduced and applied to station position time series from the latest reprocessing campaign of the International GNSS Service (IGS), as well as to Precise Point Positioning time series provided by the Nevada Geodetic Laboratory (NGL). Different spatial correlation regimes are thus evidenced at different temporal frequencies. The different levels of spatial correlations between IGS and NGL datasets furthermore suggest that some part of the spatially correlated background noise in GNSS time series consists of GNSS errors rather than aperiodic Earth surface deformation signal.

Impact of offsets on assessing the low-frequency stochastic properties of geodetic time series / Kevin Gobron in Journal of geodesy, vol 96 n° 7 (July 2022)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 96 n° 7 (July 2022) . - n° 46 Titre : Impact of offsets on assessing the low-frequency stochastic properties of geodetic time series Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Kevin Gobron, Auteur ; Paul Rebischung , Auteur ; Olivier de Viron, Auteur ; Alain Demoulin, Auteur ; Michel Van Camp, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Projets : 3-projet - voir note / Article en page(s) : n° 46 Note générale : bibliographie This study has been financially supported by the Direction Générale de l’Armement (DGA), the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, and the Centre National des Etudes Spatiales (CNES) as an application of the geodesy missions.

With the increasing span of geodetic time series, it is expected that additional observations would help better understand the low-frequency properties of these stochastic variations. In the meantime, recent studies evidenced that the choice of the functional model for the time series biases the assessment of these low-frequency stochastic properties. In particular, frequent offsets in position time series can hinder the evaluation of the noise level at low frequencies and prevent the detection of possible random-walk-type variability. This study investigates the ability of the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method to correctly retrieve low-frequency stochastic properties of geodetic time series in the presence of frequent offsets. We show that part of the influence of offsets reported by previous studies results from the MLE method estimation biases. These biases occur even when all offset epochs are correctly identified and accounted for in the trajectory model. They can cause a dramatic underestimation of deterministic parameter uncertainties. We show that one can avoid biases using the Restricted Maximum Likelihood Estimation (RMLE) method. Yet, even when using the RMLE method or equivalent, adding offsets to the trajectory model inevitably blurs the estimated low-frequency properties of geodetic time series by increasing low-frequency stochastic parameter uncertainties more than other stochastic parameters.

The main limitations are encountered in the urban canyons, consisting in a reduced satellite signal availability and a positioning estimation error due to the impact of Line-of-Sight and Non Line-of-Sight multipath phenomenon. This PhD study allows to understand the impact of the multipath phenomenon on the low-cost GNSS receivers and to prove the need of accurate assessment of the multipath error model affecting the GNSS measurements, especially in urban environment. It consists in the investigation, characterization, and finally, exploitation of the multipath error components affecting the pseudorange and pseudorange-rate measurements, of a single frequency, dual constellation GNSS receiver in the urban environment, operating with GPS L1 C/A and Galileo E1 OS signals. The first goal consists in providing a set of methodologies able to identify, isolate and characterize the multipath error components from the measurements under test. However, considering that the isolation of the multipath error is a complex operation due to the superimposed effects of multipath and thermal noise, the final method consists of isolating the joint contribution of multipath and thermal noise components. The isolated multipath and thermal noise error components are firstly classified depending the corresponding received signal /0 values, and, secondly, statistically characterized by means of Probability Density Function, sample mean and sample variance. Also, the temporal and spatial correlation properties of the isolated error components are calculated by means of a methodology which estimates the temporal correlations as a function of the receiver speed. In addition, an image processing methodology based on the application of a sky-facing fish-eye camera provides the determination of an empirical /0 threshold equal to 35 dB-Hz used to qualitatively identify the Non Line- Of-Sight and Line-Of-Sight received signal reception states. The resulting errors are characterized by a nonsymmetrical, positive biased PDF for a /0 lower than 35 dBHz, while they are characterized by a symmetrical and zero-centred PDF for a /0 higher than 35 dB-Hz. Correlation times for pseudoranges are ranged from around 5s for static and very low speed dynamics to around 1s for high-speed dynamics. Correlation times for pseudorange-rates ranged from around 0.5s for static and very low speed dynamics to around 0.2s for high-speed dynamics, due to the data-rate limitations. The second goal consists in exploiting the multipath and thermal noise error models and the LOS/NLOS received signal reception state estimation in a low-complex EKF-based architecture to improve the accuracy of the PVT estimates. This is obtained by implementing some techniques based on the measurement weighting approach to take into account the statistical properties of the error under exam and by the application of a time differenced architecture design to exploit the temporal correlation properties. Positioning performance of the tested solutions surpassed the performances of a simple EKF architecture and are comparable to the performances of a uBlox M8T receiver.
