While PPP-RTK has been well achieved by using global navigation satellite system code division multiple access observables, GLONASS PPP-RTK is nonetheless challenging due to the nature of frequency division multiple access (FDMA) observables. In this work, we present a GLONASS PPP-RTK concept that takes advantage of the integer-estimable FDMA (IE-FDMA) model recently proposed in Teunissen (in GPS Solut 23(4):1–19, 2019. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10291-019-0889-0) to guarantee rigorous integer ambiguity resolution and simultaneously takes care of the presence of the inter-frequency biases (IFBs) in homogeneous and heterogeneous network configurations. When conducting GLONASS PPP-RTK based on a network of homogeneous receivers, code and phase observation equations are used to construct the IE-FDMA model, in which the IFBs are implicitly eliminated through reparameterization. For a network consisting of heterogeneous receivers, we exclude the code observables and develop a phase-only IE-FDMA model instead, thereby circumventing the adverse effects of IFBs. For verification purposes, we collect a set of five-day global positioning system (GPS) and GLONASS data from two regional networks: one equipped with homogeneous receivers and another with heterogeneous receivers. The results show that the GLONASS-specific network corrections, including satellite clocks, satellite phase biases, and ionospheric delays estimated by the two networks, are as precise as those of their GPS-specific counterparts. Via satellite clock and phase bias corrections, we succeed in fixing both GPS and GLONASS ambiguities, shortening the convergence time to 5 (12) min, compared to 11 (18) min of ambiguity-float positioning in the case of a homogeneous (heterogeneous) network with a data sampling rate of 30 s. For ambiguity-fixed positioning, the convergence time defined in this work also indicates the time to first fix since the positioning error converges to the centimeter level once successful integer ambiguity resolution is achieved. Adding ionospheric corrections further speeds up the initialization in the two networks, with the convergence time being reduced to 0.5 (3) min. Compared with GPS-only positioning, the integration of GPS and GLONASS yields an improvement of 8–34% in accuracy and leads to a reduction of 25–50% in convergence.

Under favorable conditions these irregularities develop in the equatorial region while mapping along the magnetic field lines giving rise to large plasma depletion structures called Equatorial Plasma Bubbles with embedded smaller structures on their walls. The global navigation satellite system (GNSS) L1 band frequency is sensitive to irregularities of the size of 300–400 m in the first Fresnel zone, which cause scattering and diffraction of the signal and produce amplitude and/or phase scintillation. Severe scintillation of GNSS signals can in turn cause loss of lock of the receiver code and/or carrier loops. As a result, GNSS navigation and positioning solution can be adversely affected by the ionospheric scintillation. There are multiple GNSS receivers designed to monitor scintillations. These receivers are based on different hardware designs and use different methodologies to process the raw data. When using simultaneous data from different GNSS scintillation monitors it is important to evaluate and compare their performances under similar scintillation conditions. The scintillation monitoring techniques may be useful for many applications that use GNSS signal. The aim of this work is to evaluate the performance of six different GNSS receivers located at São José dos Campos (23.1°S, 45.8°W, dip latitude 17.3°S) during moderate and strong scintillation activity. The amplitude (S4) and phase (σϕ) scintillation indexes from these receivers were analyzed and compared for the nights February 20–21 and November 27–28, 2013.

SBAS-aided GPS positioning with an extended ionosphere map at the boundaries of WAAS service area / Mingyu Kim in Remote sensing, vol 13 n° 1 (January 2021)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing > vol 13 n° 1 (January 2021) . - n° 151 Titre : SBAS-aided GPS positioning with an extended ionosphere map at the boundaries of WAAS service area Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Mingyu Kim, Auteur ; Jeongrae Kim, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 151 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Navigation et positionnement [Termes IGN] correction [Termes IGN] correction ionosphérique [Termes IGN] décalage d'horloge [Termes IGN] GPS assisté pour la navigation (technologies) [Termes IGN] orbite [Termes IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes IGN] retard ionosphèrique [Termes IGN] Wide Area Augmentation System Résumé : (auteur) Space-based augmentation system (SBAS) provides correction information for improving the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positioning accuracy in real-time, which includes satellite orbit/clock and ionospheric delay corrections. At SBAS service area boundaries, the correction is not fully available to GNSS users and only a partial correction is available, mostly satellite orbit/clock information. By using the geospatial correlation property of the ionosphere delay information, the ionosphere correction coverage can be extended by a spatial extrapolation algorithm. This paper proposes extending SBAS ionosphere correction coverage by using a biharmonic spline extrapolation algorithm. The wide area augmentation system (WAAS) ionosphere map is extended and its ionospheric delay error is compared with the GPS Klobuchar model. The mean ionosphere error reduction at low latitude is 52.3%. The positioning accuracy of the extended ionosphere correction method is compared with the accuracy of the conventional SBAS positioning method when only a partial set of SBAS corrections are available. The mean positioning error reduction is 44.8%, and the positioning accuracy improvement is significant at low latitude.

In studies of crustal deformation, the relative distance between monitoring stations may vary from several kilometers to tens of kilometers, hence the differential single-frequency observations cannot model the ionospheric delay or other distance dependent errors. The 55 low-cost single-frequency continuous stations have been deployed together with 52 continuous dual-frequency stations in southeastern Taiwan since 2008. All of the single-frequency stations have applied corrections using dual-frequency stations to eliminate the distance dependent errors. Comparing velocity estimates from 8 co-located, the differences in horizontal and vertical components are less than 3 mm/yr and 6 mm/yr, respectively. Our study shows that the combination of single- and dual-frequency GPS data can provide robust results to study the fault slip behavior on the Longitudinal Valley fault.

Estimation and representation of regional atmospheric corrections for augmenting real-time single-frequency PPP / Peiyuan Zhou in GPS solutions, vol 24 n° 1 (January 2020)

In previous work, the satellite-and-station-specific slant total electron content (STEC) ionospheric corrections, derived from a regional reference network, are commonly used to augment single-frequency PPP for improving positioning accuracy and faster convergence. However, since the users are required to interpolate STEC ionospheric corrections from nearby reference stations, either duplex communication links should be established or all corrections of the reference network must be retrieved, which makes it inefficient to provide augmentation services to many users. Moreover, the regional tropospheric corrections are generally neglected in augmenting real-time single-frequency PPP. In this study, we present a method to estimate and represent tropospheric and ionospheric corrections from a regional reference network, which can be efficiently disseminated to users through a simplex communication link. First, the uncombined dual-frequency PPP, with external ionospheric constraints derived from international GNSS service predicted global ionospheric map, is used for estimating atmospheric delays with observations from a regional GNSS reference network. Then, the atmospheric delays are properly represented to facilitate real-time transmission by applying a polynomial model for the representation of zenith wet tropospheric corrections, and satellite-specific STEC maps for representing the slant ionospheric corrections. The above results in only simple communication links required to retrieve the regional atmospheric corrections for real-time single-frequency PPP augmentation. Observations from a regional network of 30 GNSS reference stations with inter-station distances of about 70 km during a 1-week-long period, including both quiet and active geomagnetic conditions, are used for generating the regional atmospheric corrections. The results indicate that the average root-mean-square errors of the obtained regional tropospheric and ionospheric corrections are better than 0.01 and 0.05 m when compared with those derived from dual-frequency uncombined PPP, respectively. The positioning accuracy of the single-frequency PPP augmented with regional atmospheric corrections is at 0.141 m horizontally and 0.206 m vertically under a 95% confidence level, a significant improvement compared to single-frequency PPP without atmospheric augmentation. The convergence time is also significantly reduced with 70.4% of the positioning sessions achieving instantaneous 3D convergence.
