These are often stable in the long term, though numerically different depending on the signal frequency, satellite system and receiver manufacturer. Based on the mixed-differenced model combining undifferenced pseudorange with epoch-differenced carrier phase observations, we present a multi-GNSS real-time precise clock estimation model considering correction of inter-satellite code biases (ISCBs). Pre-estimated receiver-dependent ISCB corrections are introduced to correct the inter-receiver, inter-satellite and inter-system biases largely. Then the number of estimated parameters is reduced to a manageable level for real-time estimation. Comparisons with post-processed data show that compared to undifferenced, epoch-differenced and non-bias-corrected mixed-differenced models, the proposed bias-corrected model can greatly reduce the precise clock offset systematic biases, especially for GLONASS and BeiDou. The test results show the root mean square data reductions are improved by up to 96% for GLONASS, 78% for BeiDou and 40% for GPS and Galileo.

However, considering the double-differenced (DD) ionospheric delays as stochastic quantities, the redundancy in this case increases and leads to the reduction of time of fixing the ambiguities. The approach developed in the present paper makes two considerations: 1) the DD ionospheric delays are assumed as stochastic quantities and, 2) the spatial correlation of errors is accounted for based on a simple model of correlation. A simulation is made and aims to study the effect of these two mentioned considerations on the performances of the three multifrequency GNSSs; modernized GPS, Galileo and BDS which are not yet in full capability. For each GNSS, dual-frequency combinations of frequencies as well as triple-frequency combination are investigated in the simulation. The performances studied include: the time to fix the ambiguities with high success rate and the precision of coordinates in static relative positioning with varying baseline length. A method is developed to derive what we call the spatial correlation model which approximately gives the covariance between the individual errors belonging to two stations. Furthermore, the stochastic models that follow from accounting and neglecting the spatial correlation are developed. The LAMBDA (Least-squares Ambiguity Decorrelation Adjustment) method is implemented for ambiguity decorrelation. The results show that the time to fix the ambiguities caused by accounting the spatial correlation is less than the time of fix without the spatial correlation. Also, a slight superiority of Galileo in terms of performances is seen compared to the other GNSS. For all the dualfrequency combinations investigated, when processing a baseline length of 500 km with accounted spatial correlation, the time needed to successfully fix the ambiguities lies between 5 and 9 min, whereas it becomes only between 2.5 and 3 min for all the triple-frequency combinations, this is with a sampling time of 5 s. In addition, for all different combinations, the coordinates precision is less than 8 mm even for 500 km. We think that these high performances result from: 1) the precise codes of future GNSS signals, 2) the high redundancy in the observations equation and, 3) taking into account the spatial correlation in the definition of the stochastic model.

To fully take advantage of the multi-frequency multi-system GNSS observations on precise point positioning (PPP) technology, this study aims to implement the triple-frequency ambiguity resolution (AR) for GPS, Galileo, and BeiDou-2 combined PPP using the raw observation model. The processing of inter-frequency clock bias (IFCB) estimation and correction in the context of triple-frequency PPP AR has been addressed, with which the triple-frequency uncalibrated phase delay (UPD) estimation is realized for real GPS observations for the first time. In addition, the GPS extra-wide-line UPD quality is significantly improved with the IFCB correction. Because of not being contaminated by the IFCB, the raw UPD estimation method is directly employed for Galileo which currently has 24 satellites in operation. An interesting phenomenon is found that all Galileo satellites except E24 have a zero extra-wide-lane UPD value. With the multi-GNSS observations provided by MGEX covering 15 days, the positioning solutions of GPS + Galileo + BeiDou triple-frequency PPP AR have been conducted and analyzed. The triple-frequency kinematic GNSS PPP AR can achieve an averaged 3D positioning error of 2.2 cm, and an averaged convergence time of 10.8 min. The average convergence time can be reduced by triple-frequency GNSS PPP AR by 15.6% compared with dual-frequency GNSS PPP AR, respectively. However, the additional third frequency has only a marginal contribution to positioning accuracy after convergence.

Experimental results of multipath behavior for GPS L1-L2 and Galileo E1-E5b in static and kinematic scenarios / Alexandra Avram in Journal of applied geodesy, Vol 13 n° 4 (October 2019)  

Public [article]  inJournal of applied geodesy > Vol 13 n° 4 (October 2019) . - pp 279 - 289 Titre : Experimental results of multipath behavior for GPS L1-L2 and Galileo E1-E5b in static and kinematic scenarios Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Alexandra Avram, Auteur ; Volker Schwieger, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 279 - 289 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Navigation et positionnement [Termes descripteurs IGN] navigation autonome [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement cinématique [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement par Galileo [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement par GPS [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement statique [Termes descripteurs IGN] trajet multiple Résumé : (auteur) Current trends like Autonomous Driving (AD) increase the need for a precise, reliable, and continuous position at high velocities. In both natural and man-made environments, Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals suffer challenges such as multipath, attenuation, or loss-of-lock. As Highway Assist and Highway Pilot are AD next steps, multipath knowledge is necessary for this typical user-case and kinematic situations. This paper presents a multipath performance analysis for GPS and Galileo satellites in static, slow, and high kinematic scenarios. The data is provided from car test-drives in both controlled and unrestricted, near-natural environments. The Code-Minus-Carrier (CMC) and cycle-slip implementations are validated with measurement data from consecutive days. Multipath statistical models based on satellite elevation are evaluated for the three investigated scenarios. Static models derived from the car setup measurements for GPS L1, L2 and Galileo E1 and E5b show a good agreement with a state-of-the-art model as well as the enhanced Galileo signals performance. Slow kinematic multipath results in a controlled environment showed an improvement for both navigation systems compared to the static measurements at the same place. This result is confirmed by static and slow kinematic multipath simulations with the same GNSS receiver. Post-processing analysis on highway measurements revealed a bigger multipath bias, compared to the open-sky static and slow kinematic measurement campaigns. Although less critical as urban or rural, this indicates the presence of multipath in this kind of environment as well. The impact of different parameters, including receiver architecture and Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are analyzed and discussed. Differential position (DGNSS) based on code is computed for each epoch and compared against GNSS/INS integrated position for all three measurement campaigns. The most significant 3D absolute error occurs where the greatest multipath envelope is found.

Real-time clock prediction of multi-GNSS satellites and its application in precise point positioning / Yaquan Peng in Advances in space research, vol 64 n°7 (1 October 2019)

In this paper, we focus on the performance of multi-GNSS satellite clock prediction and its application in real-time PPP. Based on the statistical analysis of multi-system satellite clock products, a model consisting of polynomial and periodic terms is employed for multi-system satellite clock prediction. To evaluate the method proposed, both post-processed and real-time satellite clock products are employed in simulated real-time processing mode. The results show that the accuracy of satellite clock prediction is related to atomic clock type and satellite type. For GPS satellites, the average standard deviations (STDs) of Cs atomic clocks will reach as high as 0.65 ns while the STD of Rb atomic clocks is only about 0.15 ns. As for BDS and Galileo, the average STD of 2-hour satellite clock prediction are 0.30 ns and 0.06 ns, respectively. In addition, it is validated that real-time PPP can still achieve positioning accuracy of one to three decimeters by using products of 2-hour satellite clock prediction. Moreover, compared to the results of GPS-only PPP, multi-system can greatly enhance the accuracy of real-time PPP from 12.5% to 18.5% in different situations.
