Currently, all the BDS and Galileo satellites are capable of transmitting signals on three or more frequencies. In this contribution, we investigate the triple-frequency PPP ambiguity resolution with B1, B2 and B3 observations from BDS satellites and E1, E5a and E5b observations from Galileo satellites and evaluate the contribution of BDS + Galileo combination to triple-frequency PPP AR. The uncalibrated phase delay (UPD) products are estimated based on triple-frequency observations, and the temporal characteristic as well as the residual distributions are analyzed. Our results show that the extra-wide-lane (EWL) and wide-lane (WL) UPDs for BDS and Galileo satellites are both stable during the 30 days and the daily narrow-lane (NL) UPD series are also steady with no obvious fluctuation. The Galileo UPDs exhibit better performance than BDS UPDs due to the high-quality observations. It is also interesting to find that the EWL UPD corrections for all Galileo satellites are very close to the zero. With the precise UPD products, the triple-frequency PPP AR with BDS and Galileo observations was implemented in both static and kinematic modes. Compared to the ambiguity-float solution, the performance can be significantly improved by triple-frequency PPP AR with the positioning accuracy improved by 30–70% in both static and kinematic modes. Moreover, the triple-frequency PPP fixed solutions also present better performance than the dual-frequency PPP fixed solutions in terms of time to the first fix and positioning accuracy, especially for the Galileo-only and BDS + Galileo solutions. And the fusion of multi-GNSS (BDS and Galileo) can further improve the position estimations compared to the single system with more satellites and better spatial geometry.

Modeling and assessment of triple-frequency BDS precise point positioning / Fei Guo in Journal of geodesy, vol 90 n° 11 (November 2016)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 90 n° 11 (November 2016) . - pp 1223 - 1235 Titre : Modeling and assessment of triple-frequency BDS precise point positioning Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Fei Guo, Auteur ; Xiaohong Zhang, Auteur ; Jinling Wang, Auteur ; Xiaodong Ren, Auteur Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : pp 1223 - 1235 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes descripteurs IGN] données BeiDou [Termes descripteurs IGN] fréquence multiple [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement par BeiDou [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes descripteurs IGN] signal BeiDou Résumé : (Auteur) The latest generation of GNSS satellites such as GPS BLOCK-IIF, Galileo and BDS are transmitting signals on three or more frequencies, thus having more choices in practice. At the same time, new challenges arise for integrating the new signals. This paper contributes to the modeling and assessment of triple-frequency PPP with BDS data. First, three triple-frequency PPP models are developed. The observation model and stochastic model are designed and extended to accommodate the third frequency. In particular, new biases such as differential code biases and inter-frequency biases as well as the parameterizations are addressed. Then, the relationships between different PPP models are discussed. To verify the triple-frequency PPP models, PPP tests with real triple-frequency data were performed in both static and kinematic scenarios. Results show that the three triple-frequency PPP models agree well with each other. Additional frequency has a marginal effect on the positioning accuracy in static PPP tests. However, the benefits of third frequency are significant in situations of where there is poor tracking and contaminated observations on frequencies B1 and B2 in kinematic PPP tests.

Single-frequency, dual-GNSS versus dual-frequency, single-GNSS: a low-cost and high-grade receivers GPS-BDS RTK analysis / Robert Odolinski in Journal of geodesy, vol 90 n° 11 (November 2016)

The goal of the present contribution is to investigate the single-epoch RTK performance of such a dual-system and compare it to a dual-frequency, single-system (DF-SS). As the SF-DS we investigate the L1 GPS + B1 BDS model, and for DF-SS we take L1, L2 GPS and B1, B2 BDS, respectively. Two different locations in the Asia-Pacific region are analysed with varying visibility of the BDS constellation, namely Perth in Australia and Dunedin in New Zealand. To emphasize the benefits of such a model we also look into using low-cost ublox single-frequency receivers and compare such SF-DS RTK performance to that of a DF-SS, based on much more expensive survey-grade receivers. In this contribution a formal and empirical analysis is given. It will be shown that with the SF-DS higher elevation cut-off angles than the conventional 10∘ or 15∘ can be used. The experiment with low-cost receivers for the SF-DS reveals (for the first time) that it has the potential to achieve comparable ambiguity resolution performance to that of a DF-SS (L1, L2 GPS), based on the survey-grade receivers.

The Middle and Upper atmosphere Radar (MUR; 34.85°N, 136.10°E) was used to conduct experiments with five equally spaced frequencies between 46.25 and 46.75 MHz. Three types of RIM data were examined: data with 13-element binary Barker codes, with 16-element binary complementary codes, and without phase codes. Moreover, two calibration approaches were adopted to validate the applicability of the RIM technique, which functioned as intended. Excellent RIM performance such as the ability to resolve several striations in an echo region of FAIs was demonstrated. However, sidelobe echoes caused by pulse coding mechanisms were occasionally observed at altitudes above and below the source regions in the coded data. Therefore, a procedure was developed according to one of the calibration approaches to identify and remove such kind of sidelobe echoes, which was shown to be applicable for the complementary-coded data. In addition to FAIs, a thin plasma layer with a thickness of approximately 1 km was identified as being structured with some tilted finer structures, which could not be observed in the original intensity images with a range resolution of 600 m. Preliminary estimates of the Doppler velocities indicated that a wind shear effect could be the cause of such tilted finer structures.
