Current PAR methods are concerned with the exclusion of ambiguities that otherwise would result in low rate of full ambiguity resolution (FAR). With an assumption of unbiased ambiguities, the traditional PAR methods use the ambiguity-domain test statistics and probability-domain quantitative evaluation to select and validate the ambiguity subset. Consequentially, they would degrade the performance using low-cost devices in challenging environments where ambiguity biases exist, causing high probabilities of false alarm and missed detection of PAR and subsequently poor availability and accuracy of PAR. To deal with this issue, in this study, we propose a new PAR method for application in challenging environments. The proposed method consists of two major steps. First, a global navigation satellite system epoch-differencing (GED) algorithm is applied to derive a prior ambiguity solution. Second, we use a modified solution separation (SS) method with the prior ambiguity solution as an external input to obtain more accurate ambiguity test statistics. Based on a dynamic road test under environments with significant signal blockages, the performance of the proposed method is analyzed by using a low-cost GNSS receiver. The proposed method provides ambiguity test statistics with higher accuracy and can achieve 73.19% and 50.55% improvement in the accuracy and availability of the fixed solution, compared with the traditional PAR methods. Besides, the RMS of positioning errors with fixed solution are 1.03 cm, 0.70 cm, and 1.50 cm for the proposed PAR method in the east, north, and upward directions, respectively, which are 1.06 cm, 0.72 cm, and 1.35 cm for SS-based PAR, and 5.29 cm, 0.86 cm, and 5.56 cm for ILS-based PAR. The proposed PAR method achieves 90.36% fixed epochs, versus 79.06%, and 88.28%, for ILS-based PAR and SS-based PAR, respectively.

The performance of PPP-AR highly depends on the reliability of the correct integer carrier-phase ambiguity estimation. In this study, the performance of narrow-lane ambiguity resolution of PPP using the Least-squares AMBiguity Decorrelation (LAMBDA) and bootstrapping methods is extensively investigated using real data from 55 IGS stations over one-month in 2020. Static PPP with 24-, 12-, 8-, 4-, 2-, 1- and ½-h sessions using two different cutoff angles (7° and 30°) was conducted with three PPP modes: i.e. ambiguity-float and two kinds of ambiguity-fixed PPP using the LAMBDA and bootstrapping methods for narrow-lane AR, respectively. The results show that the LAMBDA method can produce more reliable results for 2 hour and shorter observation sessions compared with the bootstrapping method using a 7° cutoff angle. For a 30° cutoff angle, the LAMBDA method outperforms the bootstrapping method for observation sessions of 4 h and less. For long observation times, the bootstrapping method produced much more accurate coordinates compared with the LAMBDA method without considering the wrong fixes cases. The results also show that occurrences of fixing the wrong integer ambiguities using the bootstrapping method are higher than that of the LAMBDA method.

Currently, however, there are few cycle slip detection and repair methods that can meet the data processing needs for diverse situations. To solve this problem, a highly adaptable cycle slip detection and repair method is proposed. First, a cycle slip detection equation is established using the pseudo-range and carrier double-differenced (DD) observations; the state equation is developed based on the satellite-ground distance. Then, a Kalman filter estimation model is established by joining the two equations. Subsequently, the cycle slip can be detected and repaired. Finally, the state parameters are refined in accordance with the conditional distribution. According to the results of the example, all the simulated cycle slips are detected and repaired by the method proposed. It shows that the method can meet the data processing needs for multiple situations.

The integer-estimable frequency-division multiple-access (IE-FDMA) model succeeds in formulating a set of estimable GLONASS phase ambiguities and preserving the integer property, to which the classical integer ambiguity resolution, typically the least-squares ambiguity decorrelation adjustment (LAMBDA), becomes readily applicable. The initial assessment of the IE-FDMA model demonstrated instantaneous ambiguity resolution capability in case of short-baseline real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning based on ionosphere-fixed formulation, in which the data processing strategy is window (batch)-based least-squares estimation with window length ranging from one to a few epochs. Here, we extend the applicability of the IE-FDMA model to Kalman-filter-based, ionosphere-fixed, ionosphere-weighted, and ionosphere-free cases, which are, respectively, adoptable for short-, medium-, and long-baseline RTK positioning. To adapt the IE-FDMA model to the Kalman filter, we estimate, at each epoch, first the estimable ambiguities, then transform them into integer-estimable ones, and finally resolve them into correct integers. This enables the rigorous integer ambiguity resolution and, at the same time, eases the recursive construction of integer-estimable ambiguities. We analyze global positioning system (GPS) and GLONASS data of nine baselines with lengths varying from several meters to more than one hundred kilometers. The results demonstrate the feasibility of fast ambiguity resolution not only for the GLONASS phase-only short-baseline RTK positioning, but for the GPS + GLONASS medium- and long-baseline RTK positioning as well. In all cases, the fixed solution with faster (several-minutes) convergence and higher (centimeter-level) precision indicates the benefits from GLONASS ambiguity resolution as compared to the float solution. Moreover, the dual-system solution with decreased ambiguity dilution of precision (ADOP) and improved positioning precision confirms the advantages of integrating GLONASS with GPS in contrast to the GPS-only situation.

Performance of BDS triple-frequency positioning based on the modified TCAR method / Yijun Tian in Survey review, vol 52 n° 374 (August 2020)

The estimated DD ionospheric delay derived from the Kalman-filter floating solution is adopted to modify the floating NL ambiguities. Modified by the smooth DD ionospheric delay, the NL ambiguity residuals are mostly within 0.5 cycles over medium-long baselines, showing a significant improvement in contrast to the classical TCAR method. The positioning performances of the modified method are even better than the LAMBDA method over 72 and 634 km baselines. As the ambiguity can be correctly fixed just after several epochs, high-precision positioning can be achieved in a very short time.
