Three-dimensional computerized ionospheric tomography (3DCIT) is an important tool for the reconstruction of electron density distributions in the ionosphere through effective use of the GNSS data. More specifically, the 3DCIT technique is able to resolve the three-dimensional electron density distributions over the reconstructed area based on the GNSS slant total electron content (STEC) observations. We present an Improved Constrained Simultaneous Iterative Reconstruction Technique (ICSIRT) algorithm that differs from the traditional ionospheric tomography methods in 3 ways. First, the ICSIRT computes the electron density corrections based on the product of the intercept and electron density within voxels so that the assignment of corrections at different heights becomes more reasonable. Second, an Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) interpolation is used to restrict the electron density values in the voxels not traversed by GNSS rays, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the reconstructed region. Also, to improve the reconstruction accuracy around the HmF2 (the peak height of the F2 layer) altitude, a multiresolution grid is adopted in the vertical direction, with a 10-km resolution from 200 to 420 km and a 50-km resolution at other altitudes. The new algorithm has been applied to the GNSS data over the European and North American regions in different case studies that involve different seasonal conditions as well as a major storm. In the European region experiment, reconstruction results show that the new ICSIRT algorithm can effectively improve the reconstruction of the GNSS data. The electron density profiles retrieved from ICSIRT are much closer to the ionosonde observations than those from its predecessor, namely, the Constrained Simultaneous Iteration Reconstruction Technique (CSIRT). The reconstruction accuracy is significantly improved. In the North American region experiment, the electron density profiles in ICSIRT results show better agreement with incoherent scatter radar observations than CSIRT, even for the topside profiles.

Break detection and outlierremoval have been automated so that decades of daily measurements from thousands of stations can beprocessed in a few hours. New measurements are added, and parameters are updated every week. Modelparameters allow separation of interseismic, annual, coseismic, and postseismic signals. Tools availablethrough GeoGateway (http://geo-gateway.org) allow rapid visualization and analysis of these terms forresults that can be subsetted in time or space. Results show highly variable and nonlinear motion for GPSstations in southern California. The variable motion is related to seasonal motions, distributed tectonicmotion, earthquakes, and postseismic motions that can continue for years. In some areas results suggest thatadditional processes are responsible for the observed motions. In general, following earthquakes, stationsreturn to their longterm motions after 2–3 years, though some exceptions occur. The use of the tools showsnonlinear motion in the Salton Trough of southern California related to the 2010 M7.2 El MayorCucapahearthquake, 2012 Brawley earthquake swarm, and a creep event on the Superstition Hills fault in 2017.

Public [article]  inGPS solutions > Vol 24 n° 3 (July 2020) Titre : Estimation of tropospheric wet refractivity using tomography method and artificial neural networks in Iranian case study Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Mir Reza Ghaffari Razin, Auteur ; Behzad Voosoghi, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes descripteurs IGN] coefficient de corrélation [Termes descripteurs IGN] données GPS [Termes descripteurs IGN] erreur moyenne quadratique [Termes descripteurs IGN] erreur relative [Termes descripteurs IGN] Iran [Termes descripteurs IGN] réfraction atmosphérique [Termes descripteurs IGN] réseau neuronal artificiel [Termes descripteurs IGN] retard troposphérique [Termes descripteurs IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes descripteurs IGN] tomographie par GPS [Termes descripteurs IGN] vapeur d'eau [Termes descripteurs IGN] voxel Résumé : (auteur) Using the observations from local and regional GPS networks, the estimation of slant wet delays (SWDs) is possible for each line of sight between satellite and receiver. The observations of SWD are used to model horizontal and vertical variations of the wet refractivity in the atmosphere above the study area. This work is done using the tomography method. In tomography, the horizontal variations of tropospheric wet refractivity are modeled with the polynomial in degree and rank of 2 with latitude and longitude as variables. Also, altitude variations are modeled in the form of discrete layers with constant heights. The main innovation is to estimate the tropospheric parameters for each line of sight by the artificial neural networks (ANNs). The SWD obtained from GPS observations for the different signals at each station is compared with the SWD generated by the ANNs (SWDGPS–SWDANNs). The square of the difference between these two values is introduced as the cost function in the ANNs. To evaluate, we used observations from October 27 to 31, 2011. The availability of GPS and radiosonde data is the main reason for choosing this timeframe. The correlation coefficient, root mean square error (RMSE), and relative error allow for evaluation of the proposed model. The results were also compared with the results of the voxel-based troposphere tomography method. For a more detailed evaluation, four test stations are selected and ANN zenith wet delays (ZWDANN) are compared with the ZWDGPS. Observations of test stations are not used in the modeling step. The correlation coefficient in the testing step for TomoANN and Tomovoxel is 0.9006 and 0.8863, respectively. The mean RMSE at 5 days for TomoANN and Tomovoxel is calculated as 0.63 and 0.71 mm/km, respectively. Also, the average relative error at the four test stations for TomoANN is 15.37% and for Tomovoxel it is 19.69%. The results demonstrate the better capability of the proposed method in the modeling of the tropospheric wet refractivity in the region of Iran.

GPS + Galileo + BeiDou precise point positioning with triple-frequency ambiguity resolution / Pan Li in GPS solutions, Vol 24 n° 3 (July 2020)

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.

Precise point positioning with decimetre accuracy using wide-lane ambiguities and triple-frequency GNSS data / Manoj Deo in Journal of applied geodesy, vol 14 n° 3 (July 2020)  

Public [article]  inJournal of applied geodesy > vol 14 n° 3 (July 2020) . - pp 263 – 284 Titre : Precise point positioning with decimetre accuracy using wide-lane ambiguities and triple-frequency GNSS data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Manoj Deo, Auteur ; Ahmed El-Mowafy, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : pp 263 – 284 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Navigation et positionnement [Termes descripteurs IGN] ambiguïté entière [Termes descripteurs IGN] bruit atmosphérique [Termes descripteurs IGN] combinaison linéaire [Termes descripteurs IGN] données GNSS [Termes descripteurs IGN] phase [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes descripteurs IGN] triple différence Résumé : (auteur) This paper proposes precise point positioning (PPP) methods that offer an accuracy of a few decimetres (dm) with triple frequency GNSS data. Firstly, an enhanced triple frequency linear combination is presented for rapid fixing of the extra wide-lane (EWL) and wide-lane (WL) ambiguities for GPS, Beidou-2 and Galileo. This has improved performance compared to the Melbourne-Wübbena (MW) linear combination, and has 6.7 % lower measurement noise for the GPS L1/L2 signals, 12.7 % for L1/L5 and 0.7 % for L2/L5. Analysis with tested data showed a 5–6 % reduction in time required to fix the N21 and N51 ambiguities. Once the EWL/WL ambiguities are fixed with the proposed linear combinations, three methods are presented that aim to provide positioning accuracy of a few dm. In the first approach, the three EWL/WL ambiguities in their respective phase equations are used to derive a low-noise ionosphere-free (IF) linear combination. The second method uses a low noise IF combination with two carrier-phase EWL/WL equations and a single pseudorange measurement. The third method uses a low noise IF combination with a single carrier phase EWL equation and two pseudorange measurements. These proposed methods can provide dm level positioning accuracy if carrier phase measurements with mm precision is tracked by the receiver. When comparing these combinations with a combination proposed in [], it is found that superior performance is achieved with the third method when carrier phase noise is >5–6 mm for GPS and Beidou-2 and >2–3 mm for Galileo. This model only requires the EWL ambiguity to be fixed which typically takes just one epoch of data. Thus, the user achieves instant decimetre level PPP accuracy.
