It is critical to correct its L5 time-variant portion in the GNSS triple-frequency precise positioning. Using two years of observations from more than 100 stations worldwide, we use the epoch-differenced method to estimate IFCB for all available 12 GPS BLOCK-IIF satellites, and analyze its short-term and long-term variations. The experimental results indicate that the IFCB variations are clearly consistent for two satellites located in the same orbital plane, which perhaps means that the variations of IFCB are dependent on the orbital plane. We found that the IFCB of each Block-IIF satellite shows repetition characteristics over two years. The annual repetition cycle of 352 days of IFCB is consistent with the GPS year 351.4 days may originate from the rotation of satellites around the earth. GPS triple-frequency uncombined PPP is carried out using 9 globally distributed MGEX stations from June 1 to 30, 2018. The experimental results indicate that compared to the PPP solutions without IFCB corrections, GPS triple-frequency PPP can achieve an accuracy of 2.2, 3.8 and 11.4 mm in the north, east, and up components after correcting IFCB, which is an accuracy increase in 31.3%, 17.4%, and 13.0%, respectively. The average RMS of the phase posteriori residuals for each frequency is also reduced significantly, especially 79.1% for L5 frequency.

A new approach for the development of grid models calculating tropospheric key parameters over China / Ge Zhu in Remote sensing, vol 13 n° 17 (September-1 2021)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing > vol 13 n° 17 (September-1 2021) . - n° 3546 Titre : A new approach for the development of grid models calculating tropospheric key parameters over China Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Ge Zhu, Auteur ; Liangke Huang, Auteur ; Lilong Liu, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 3546 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] données maillées [Termes IGN] données météorologiques [Termes IGN] MERRA [Termes IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes IGN] propagation troposphérique [Termes IGN] retard troposphérique [Termes IGN] série temporelle [Termes IGN] teneur en vapeur d'eau Résumé : (auteur) Pressure, water vapor pressure, temperature, and weighted mean temperature (Tm) are tropospheric parameters that play an important role in high-precision global navigation satellite system navigation (GNSS). As accurate tropospheric parameters are obligatory in GNSS navigation and GNSS water vapor detection, high-precision modeling of tropospheric parameters has gained widespread attention in recent years. A new approach is introduced to develop an empirical tropospheric delay model named the China Tropospheric (CTrop) model, providing meteorological parameters based on the sliding window algorithm. The radiosonde data in 2017 are treated as reference values to validate the performance of the CTrop model, which is compared to the canonical Global Pressure and Temperature 3 (GPT3) model. The accuracy of the CTrop model in regards to pressure, water vapor pressure, temperature, and weighted mean temperature are 5.51 hPa, 2.60 hPa, 3.09 K, and 3.35 K, respectively, achieving an improvement of 6%, 9%, 10%, and 13%, respectively, when compared to the GPT3 model. Moreover, three different resolutions of the CTrop model based on the sliding window algorithm are also developed to reduce the amount of gridded data provided to the users, as well as to speed up the troposphere delay computation process, for which users can access model parameters of different resolutions for their requirements. With better accuracy of estimating the tropospheric parameters than that of the GPT3 model, the CTrop model is recommended to improve the performance of GNSS positioning and navigation.

Vectorial integer bootstrapping: flexible integer estimation with application to GNSS / Peter J.G. Teunissen in Journal of geodesy, vol 95 n° 9 (September 2021)

The mathematical definition of the class of VIB-estimators is introduced together with their pull-in regions and other properties such as probability bounds and success rate approximations. The vectorial formulation allows sequential block-by-block processing of the ambiguities based on a user-chosen partitioning. In this way, flexibility is created, where for specific choices of partitioning, tailored VIB-estimators can be designed. This wide range of possibilities is discussed, supported by numerical simulations and analytical examples. Further guidelines are provided, as well as the possible extension to other classes of estimators.

Integer-estimable FDMA model as an enabler of GLONASS PPP-RTK / Baocheng Zhang in Journal of geodesy, vol 95 n° 8 (August 2021)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 95 n° 8 (August 2021) . - n° 91 Titre : Integer-estimable FDMA model as an enabler of GLONASS PPP-RTK Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Baocheng Zhang, Auteur ; Pengyu Hou, Auteur ; Jiuping Zha, Auteur ; Teng Liu, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 91 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] ambiguïté entière [Termes IGN] CDMA [Termes IGN] correction ionosphérique [Termes IGN] décalage d'horloge [Termes IGN] positionnement cinématique en temps réel [Termes IGN] positionnement par GLONASS [Termes IGN] positionnement par GPS [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes IGN] résolution d'ambiguïté [Termes IGN] temps de convergence Résumé : (auteur) PPP-RTK extends the precise point positioning (PPP) concept by incorporating the idea of integer ambiguity resolution underlying the real-time kinematic (RTK) technique, making rapid initialization and high accuracy attainable with a standalone receiver. 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.

Comparison of polar ionospheric behavior at Arctic and Antarctic regions for improved satellite-based positioning / Arun Kumar Singh in Journal of applied geodesy, vol 15 n° 3 (July 2021)

The changes in amplitude and phase scintillation are also probed through Global Ionospheric Scintillation and TEC monitoring (GISTM) systems recordings at North pole [Himadri station; Geographic 78°55′ N, 11°56′ E] and South pole [Maitri station; Geographic 70°46′ S 11°44′ E]. Observations show the range of %TEC variability being relatively more over Antarctic region (−40 % to 60 %) than Arctic region (−25 % to 25 %), corroborating the role of the dominant solar photoionization production process. Our analysis confirms that TEC variation at polar latitudes is a function of magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling, depending on interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientation and magnitude in the X ( Bx), Y ( By), and Z ( Bz) plane. Visible enhancement in TEC is noticed in the northern polar latitude when Bx6nT and Bz>0 whereas the southern polar latitude perceives TEC enhancements with Bx>0, −6nT Numéro de notice : A2021-469 Affiliation des auteurs : non IGN Thématique : POSITIONNEMENT Nature : Article nature-HAL : ArtAvecCL-RevueIntern DOI : 10.1515/jag-2021-0033 Date de publication en ligne : 22/06/2021 En ligne : https://doi.org/10.1515/jag-2021-0033 Format de la ressource électronique : URL Article Permalink : https://documentation.ensg.eu/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=98107 [article]
