We focus on the performance of Galileo time and frequency transfer using the E1, E5a, E5b and E5 observations. Dual-frequency, triple-frequency and quad-frequency models for precise time and frequency transfer with different Galileo observations are proposed. Four time and transfer links between international time laboratories are used to assess the performances of different models in terms of time link noise level and frequency stability indicators. The average RMS values of the smoothed residuals of the clock difference series are 0.033 ns, 0.033 ns and 0.034 ns for the dual-frequency, triple-frequency and quad-frequency models with four time links, respectively. With respect to frequency stability, the average stability values at 15,360 s are 9.51 × 10−15, 9.46 × 10−15 and 9.37 × 10−15 for the dual-frequency, triple-frequency and quad-frequency models with four time links, respectively. Moreover, although biases among different models and receiver the inter-frequency exist, their characteristics are relatively stable. Generally, the dual-/triple-/quad-frequency models show similar performance for those time links, and the quad-frequency models can provide significant potential for switching among and unifying the three multi-frequency solutions, as well as further enhancing the redundancy and reliability compared to the current dual-frequency time transfer method.

Public [article]  inGPS solutions > vol 24 n° 2 (April 2020) Titre : The impact of second-order ionospheric delays on the ZWD estimation with GPS and BDS measurements Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Shaocheng Zhang, Auteur ; Lei Fang, Auteur ; Guangxing Wang, Auteur ; Wei Li, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes descripteurs IGN] champ géomagnétique [Termes descripteurs IGN] décalage d'horloge [Termes descripteurs IGN] données BeiDou [Termes descripteurs IGN] données GPS [Termes descripteurs IGN] gradient d'ionosphère [Termes descripteurs IGN] méthode des moindres carrés [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes descripteurs IGN] retard ionosphèrique [Termes descripteurs IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes descripteurs IGN] teneur verticale totale en électrons Résumé : (auteur) Since millimeter accuracy is required in many GNSS applications such as real-time zenith wet delay (ZWD) estimation, the higher-order ionospheric delays on GNSS signals are no longer negligible. We calculated the second-order ionospheric delays (I2) and analyzed the impact on the ZWD estimation with GPS-only and combined GPS/BDS observations. The undifferenced PPP model with fixed coordinates was used to estimate the ZWD and horizontal gradients. The method of blockwise sequential least squares was utilized to eliminate the receiver clock biases and compute the I2 impact on the ZWDs. The I2 delays on each GNSS satellite observations were calculated with the CODE final TEC map and the 12th generation of the international geomagnetic reference field (IGRF-12) model. The statistical results with the actual observation geometry show that the I2 delays can reach over 10 mm during the daytime, and the corresponding impact on the estimated ZWD can reach up to several millimeters. At station HKWS, the maximum I2 impact with GPS only reaches up to 3.1 mm and is still 2.4 mm when both GPS and BDS observations are used. The simulated I2 impact on the ZWD could reach several millimeters, even though the TEC and geomagnetic values were calculated from relatively moderate background models. Compared with the 5–10 mm precision of real-time ZWD estimation, the I2 delays must not be ignored, especially during high VTEC periods.

Research on empirical correction models of GPS Block IIF and BDS satellite inter-frequency clock bias / Xiaopeng Gong in Journal of geodesy, Vol 94 n°3 (March 2020)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > Vol 94 n°3 (March 2020) Titre : Research on empirical correction models of GPS Block IIF and BDS satellite inter-frequency clock bias Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Xiaopeng Gong, Auteur ; Shengfeng Gu, Auteur ; Yidong Lou, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes descripteurs IGN] analyse harmonique [Termes descripteurs IGN] décalage d'horloge [Termes descripteurs IGN] données BeiDou [Termes descripteurs IGN] données GPS [Termes descripteurs IGN] erreur systématique interfréquence d'horloge [Termes descripteurs IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes descripteurs IGN] résolution d'ambiguïté [Termes descripteurs IGN] triple différence Résumé : (auteur) Triple-frequency observations will introduce an inter-frequency clock bias (IFCB) between the new frequency and the original dual-frequency observations. It has been verified that satellite IFCB can reach dozens of centimeters and several centimeters for GPS Block IIF satellite and BDS satellite, respectively. The existence of satellite IFCB will significantly affect undifferenced triple-frequency data processing. Based on 4-year data collected from 80 globally distributed stations, the long-term characteristics of IFCB coefficients obtained by using harmonic analysis have been studied. The results demonstrate that the coefficients of IFCB periodic model cannot be well fitted only by using sun elevation angle. Also, coefficients have obvious periodic characteristics and their periods differ among different satellites. Thus, a new linear-plus-periodic model is proposed to fit the long-term coefficients. Then, IFCB empirical correction models for 12 GPS Block IIF satellites and BDS GEO and IGSO satellites are built. In order to validate the correction model, IFCB standard deviation (STD), triple-frequency precise point positioning (PPP) and undifferenced extra-wide-lane (EWL) ambiguity resolution are employed. The results based on more than 4-year observations show that, with correction model applied, the average IFCB STD decreases by about 65.5% and 45.5% for GPS and BDS satellites, respectively. Compared to triple-frequency PPP without IFCB correction, triple-frequency PPP results with IFCB correction show that Up, North and East components accuracy are improved by 12.3%, 16.0% and 13.2%, respectively. Besides, IFCB correction will greatly improve the consistence of EWL fractional cycle bias among different stations and improve the success rate of EWL ambiguity resolution.

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.

As such, today these techniques are offered online via GPS (Global Positioning System) data processing services. In this study, one Post Processed Static (OPUS) and one Precise Point Positioning (CSRS-PPP) technique is used to process 24 h GPS data for a CORS (Continuously Operating Reference Stations) station (P565) duration of year 2016. By analyzing the results sent by these two online services, subsidence is determined for the location of CORS station, P565, as 3–4 cm for the entire year of 2016. In addition, precision of these two techniques is determined as ∼2 cm. Accuracy of PPS and PPP results is 0.46 cm and 1.21 cm, respectively. Additionally, these two techniques are compared and variations between them is determined as 2.5 cm.
