Determining receiver biases in GPS-derived total electron content in the auroral oval and polar cap region using ionosonde measurements 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1

Global Positioning System (GPS) total electron content (TEC) measurements, although highly precise, are often rendered inaccurate due to satellite and receiver differential code biases (DCBs). Calculated satellite DCB values are now available from a variety of sources, but receiver DCBs generally remain an undertaking of receiver operators and processing centers. A procedure for removing these receiver DCBs from GPS-derived ionospheric TEC at high latitudes, using Canadian Advanced Digital Ionosonde (CADI) measurements, is presented. Here, we will test the applicability of common numerical methods for estimating receiver DCBs in high-latitude regions and compare our CADI-calibrated GPS vertical TEC (vTEC) measurements to corresponding International GNSS Service IONEX-interpolated vTEC map data. We demonstrate that the bias values determined using the CADI method are largely independent of the topside model (exponential, Epstein, and α-Chapman) used. We further confirm our results via comparing bias-calibrated GPS vTEC with those derived from incoherent scatter radar (ISR) measurements. These CADI method results are found to be within 1.0 TEC units (TECU) of ISR measurements. The numerical methods tested demonstrate agreement varying from within 1.6 TECU to in excess of 6.0 TECU when compared to ISR measurements. 相似文献

Total electron content processing from GPS observations to facilitate ionospheric modeling 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1
With the increasing global distribution of high rate dual-frequency global positioning system (GPS) receivers, the production
of a real-time atmospheric constituent definition, total electron content (TEC), has become a beneficial contributor to the
modeling applications used in the assessment of GPS position accuracy and the composition of the ionosphere, plasmasphere,
and troposphere. Historically, TEC measurements have been obtained through post processing techniques to produce the quality
of data necessary for modeling applications with rigorous error estimate requirements. These procedures necessitated the collection
of large volumes of data to address the various abnormalities in the computation of TEC associated with the use of greater
data quality controls and source selection while real-time modeling environments must rely on autonomous controls and filtration
techniques to prevent the production of erroneous model results. In this paper we present methods for processing TEC in real
time, which utilize several procedures including the application of an ionospheric model to automatically perform quality
control on the TEC output and the computational techniques used to address receiver multipath, faulty receiver observations,
cycle-slips, segmented processing, and receiver calibrations. The resulting TEC measurements are provided with rigorous error
estimates validated using the vertical TEC from the Jason satellite mission.

Analyzing GNSS data in precise point positioning software 总被引：4，自引：1，他引：3
This work demonstrates that precise point positioning (PPP) can be used not only for positioning, but for a variety of other
tasks, such as signal analysis. The fact that the observation model used for accurate error modeling has to take into consideration
the several effects present in GPS signals, and that observations are undifferenced, makes PPP a powerful data analysis tool
sensitive to a variety of parameters. The PPP application developed at the University of New Brunswick, which is called GAPS
(GPS Analysis and Positioning Software), has been designed and built in order to take advantage of available precise products,
resulting in a data analysis tool for determining parameters in addition to position, receiver clock error, and neutral atmosphere
delay. These other estimated parameters include ionospheric delays, code biases, satellite clock errors, and code multipath
among others. In all cases, the procedures were developed in order to be suitable for real-time as well as post-processing
applications. One of the main accomplishments in the development described here is the use of very precise satellite products,
coupled with a very complete observation error modeling to make possible a variety of analyses based on GPS data. In this
paper, several procedures are described, their innovative aspects are pointed out, and their results are analyzed and compared
with other sources. The procedures and software are readily adaptable for using data from other global navigation satellite
systems. 相似文献

Single receiver phase ambiguity resolution with GPS data 总被引：26，自引：12，他引：14

Global positioning system (GPS) data processing algorithms typically improve positioning solution accuracy by fixing double-differenced
phase bias ambiguities to integer values. These “double-difference ambiguity resolution” methods usually invoke linear combinations
of GPS carrier phase bias estimates from pairs of transmitters and pairs of receivers, and traditionally require simultaneous
measurements from at least two receivers. However, many GPS users point position a single local receiver, based on publicly
available solutions for GPS orbits and clocks. These users cannot form double differences. We present an ambiguity resolution
algorithm that improves solution accuracy for single receiver point-positioning users. The algorithm processes dual- frequency
GPS data from a single receiver together with wide-lane and phase bias estimates from the global network of GPS receivers
that were used to generate the orbit and clock solutions for the GPS satellites. We constrain (rather than fix) linear combinations
of local phase biases to improve compatibility with global phase bias estimates. For this precise point positioning, no other
receiver data are required. When tested, our algorithm significantly improved repeatability of daily estimates of ground receiver
positions, most notably in the east component by approximately 30% with respect to the nominal case wherein the carrier biases
are estimated as real values. In this “static” test for terrestrial receiver positions, we achieved daily repeatability of
1.9, 2.1 and 6.0 mm in the east, north and vertical (ENV) components, respectively. For kinematic solutions, ENV repeatability
is 7.7, 8.4, and 11.7 mm, respectively, representing improvements of 22, 8, and 14% with respect to the nominal. Results from
precise orbit determination of the twin GRACE satellites demonstrated that the inter-satellite baseline accuracy improved
by a factor of three, from 6 to 2 mm up to a long-term bias. Jason-2/Ocean Surface Topography Mission precise orbit determination
tests results implied radial orbit accuracy significantly below the 10 mm level. Stability of time transfer, in low-Earth
orbit, improved from 40 to 7 ps. We produced these results by applying this algorithm within the Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s
(JPL’s) GIPSY/OASIS software package and using JPL’s orbit and clock products for the GPS constellation. These products now
include a record of the wide-lane and phase bias estimates from the underlying global network of GPS stations. This implies
that all GIPSY–OASIS positioning users can now benefit from this capability to perform single-receiver ambiguity resolution. 相似文献

The activities of the Ionosphere Working Group of the International GPS Service (IGS) 总被引：5，自引：2，他引：3
This article is based on a position paper presented at the IGS Network, Data and Analysis Center Workshop 2002 in Ottawa,
Canada, 8–11 April 2002, and introduces the IGS Ionosphere Working Group (Iono_WG). Detailed information about the IGS in
general can be found on the IGS Central Bureau Web page: http://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov. The Iono_WG commenced working in June
1998. The working group's main activity currently is the routine production of ionosphere Total Electron Content (TEC) maps
with a 2-h time resolution and daily sets of GPS satellite and receiver hardware differential code bias (DCB) values. The
TEC maps and DCB sets are derived from GPS dual-frequency tracking data recorded with the global IGS tracking network.
In the medium- and long-term, the working group intends to refine algorithms for the mapping of ionospheric parameters from
GPS measurements and to realize near–real–time availability of IGS ionosphere products. The paper will give an overview of
the Iono_WG activities that include a summary of activities since its establishment, achievements and future plans.

伪距偏差是指卫星导航信号非理想特征导致的不同技术状态接收机产生的伪距测量常数偏差。本文将伪距偏差作为一种用户段误差,提出基于并置接收机的伪距偏差计算方法和基于DCB参数的伪距偏差计算方法,以实现伪距偏差与其他误差的分离。然后利用实测数据测量了北斗卫星伪距偏差,结果表明伪距偏差标定序列波动STD约为0.1 m,不随时间明显变化,不同地点接收机测量的伪距偏差具有较好的一致性。在1.5 G频段,北斗卫星B1I频点伪距偏差最大。北斗卫星新体制信号B1C伪距偏差最小,较北斗卫星B1I频点伪距偏差明显改善,也明显好于GPS卫星L1C/A频点伪距偏差。在其他频段,GPS卫星L2C伪距偏差略大于北斗卫星B3I伪距偏差,L5C频点伪距偏差次之,B2a频点伪距偏差最小。最后,利用实测数据分析了伪距偏差对定位精度的影响。结果表明伪距偏差与卫星群延迟参数高度相关。若用户接收机与群延迟参数计算采用的接收机技术状态差异较大,用户接收机定位精度将明显恶化。 相似文献

Use of GPS tracking data from different dual-frequency receiver types (cross-correlating vs. codeless) has revealed satellite-dependent
biases in pseudorange observables P1 (Y-code) and C1 (C/A, Clear Acquisition code). These biases can have a direct effect
on clock estimates, carrier phase bias fixing, and other parameters estimated in GPS data processing. A set of satellite-specific
compensatory pseudorange offsets is calculated, and each is applied to a wee of daily global network analyses in which satlellite,
receiver, atmospheric, and Earth rotation parameters are estimated. Results from these analyses are then compared to those
from corresponding baseline cases in which no biases were applied. There is also some evidence that suggests that the pseudorange
biases differ even among codeless receiver models. Hence, a second set of offsets is computed on a different basis, and compared
with the baseline model in a similar manner. A preliminary examination of C1-P1 variations over time is presented. Finally,
recommendations are made for the use of the calculated offsets, and consideration is given to a future dissemination of updates
to these values as necessary. ? 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Compared with the traditional GPS L1 C/A BPSK-R(1) signal, wideband global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals suffer more severe distortion due to ionospheric dispersion. Ionospheric dispersion inevitably introduces additional errors in pseudorange and carrier phase observations that cannot be readily eliminated by traditional methods. Researchers have reported power losses, waveform ripples, correlation peak asymmetries, and carrier phase shifts caused by ionospheric dispersion. We analyze the code tracking bias induced by ionospheric dispersion and propose an efficient all-pass filter to compensate the corresponding nonlinear group delay over the signal bandwidth. The filter is constructed in a cascaded biquad form based on the estimated total electron content (TEC). The effects of TEC accuracy, filter order, and fraction parameter on the filter fitting error are explored. Taking the AltBOC(15,10) signal as an example, we compare the time domain signal waveforms, correlation peaks, code tracking biases, and carrier phase biases with and without this all-pass filter and demonstrate that the proposed delay-equalization all-pass filter is a potential solution to ionospheric dispersion compensation and mitigation of observation biases for wideband GNSS signals. 相似文献

Storm-enhanced density (SED) is a geomagnetic storm phenomenon, characterized by a plume of enhanced total electron content (TEC) that initially moves poleward and sunward extending out from a larger region of enhanced TEC in the mid-latitudes. SED is associated with extreme mid-latitude space weather effects. Sharp gradients in the TEC are found along the borders of SED plumes and at the boundaries of the larger TEC region (the base of the plume). These large TEC gradients can cause significant errors in DGPS and WADGPS positioning and can result in serious consequences for applications such as railway control, highway traffic management, emergency response, commercial aviation and marine navigation, all of which require high precision, real-time positioning. Data from the global IGS network of GPS receivers have enabled the spatial and temporal visualization of these SED plumes, allowing ionospheric researchers to study this phenomenon and investigate the potential for developing prediction techniques and real-time warning systems. GPS TEC maps provided by analysis of the data from the IGS network have now been widely disseminated throughout the atmospheric research community and have become one of the standard means of studying the effects of geomagnetic storms on the ionosphere. These maps have enabled researchers to identify that the SED phenomenon occurs globally, is associated with large TEC gradients (at times greater than 100 TEC units per degree latitude), and is a magnetically conjugate phenomenon. This paper reports on the recent advances in our understanding of the SED phenomenon enabled by GPS observations. 相似文献

Vertical total electron content (VTEC) parameters estimated using global navigation satellite system (GNSS) data are of great interest for ionosphere sensing. Satellite differential code biases (SDCBs) account for one source of error which, if left uncorrected, can deteriorate performance of positioning, timing and other applications. The customary approach to estimate VTEC along with SDCBs from dual-frequency GNSS data, hereinafter referred to as DF approach, consists of two sequential steps. The first step seeks to retrieve ionospheric observables through the carrier-to-code leveling technique. This observable, related to the slant total electron content (STEC) along the satellite–receiver line-of-sight, is biased also by the SDCBs and the receiver differential code biases (RDCBs). By means of thin-layer ionospheric model, in the second step one is able to isolate the VTEC, the SDCBs and the RDCBs from the ionospheric observables. In this work, we present a single-frequency (SF) approach, enabling the joint estimation of VTEC and SDCBs using low-cost receivers; this approach is also based on two steps and it differs from the DF approach only in the first step, where we turn to the precise point positioning technique to retrieve from the single-frequency GNSS data the ionospheric observables, interpreted as the combination of the STEC, the SDCBs and the biased receiver clocks at the pivot epoch. Our numerical analyses clarify how SF approach performs when being applied to GPS L1 data collected by a single receiver under both calm and disturbed ionospheric conditions. The daily time series of zenith VTEC estimates has an accuracy ranging from a few tenths of a TEC unit (TECU) to approximately 2 TECU. For 73–96% of GPS satellites in view, the daily estimates of SDCBs do not deviate, in absolute value, more than 1 ns from their ground truth values published by the Centre for Orbit Determination in Europe. 相似文献

在全球定位系统(Global Positioning System,GPS)中,接收机硬件延迟引起的码偏差和相位偏差是影响精密授时、电离层建模以及非差模糊度解算的重要因素。利用GPS对电离层总电子含量进行估计和建模时,通常假定GPS接收机硬件延迟偏差是稳定不变的量,对其可能存在的波动及影响因素考虑不充分。因此,对GPS接收机硬件延迟偏差的时变特性进行分析,有助于提高电离层电子含量估值的准确性和可靠性。分析了GPS接收机差分码偏差(differential code bias,DCB)和差分相位偏差(differential phase bias,DPB)单历元及单天解的时间变化特性,并对温度变化与接收机DCB、DPB变化之间的相关性进行了实验探究。结果表明,接收机重启前后其DCB值会发生突变,重启之后接收机DCB和DPB大约需要25 min才能趋于稳定。接收机DCB和DPB并不能长期保持稳定,实验数据显示,在2~3 h内,DCB的变化量可以达到0.8 m左右,DPB的变化量可以达到4 mm左右,接收机DCB和DPB的波动与周围环境温度的变化具有较强相关性。 相似文献

Calibration errors on experimental slant total electron content (TEC) determined with GPS 总被引：12，自引：6，他引：12
The Global Positioning System (GPS) has become a powerful tool for ionospheric studies. In addition, ionospheric corrections
are necessary for the augmentation systems required for Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) use. Dual-frequency carrier-phase
and code-delay GPS observations are combined to obtain ionospheric observables related to the slant total electron content
(sTEC) along the satellite-receiver line-of-sight (LoS). This observable is affected by inter-frequency biases [IFB; often
called differential code biases (DCB)] due to the transmitting and the receiving hardware. These biases must be estimated
and eliminated from the data in order to calibrate the experimental sTEC obtained from GPS observations. Based on the analysis
of single differences of the ionospheric observations obtained from pairs of co-located dual-frequency GPS receivers, this
research addresses two major issues: (1) assessing the errors translated from the code-delay to the carrier-phase ionospheric
observable by the so-called levelling process, applied to reduce carrier-phase ambiguities from the data; and (2) assessing
the short-term stability of receiver IFB. The conclusions achieved are: (1) the levelled carrier-phase ionospheric observable
is affected by a systematic error, produced by code-delay multi-path through the levelling procedure; and (2) receiver IFB
may experience significant changes during 1 day. The magnitude of both effects depends on the receiver/antenna configuration.
Levelling errors found in this research vary from 1.4 total electron content units (TECU) to 5.3 TECU. In addition, intra-day
vaiations of code-delay receiver IFB ranging from 1.4 to 8.8 TECU were detected. 相似文献

M_DCB: Matlab code for estimating GNSS satellite and receiver differential code biases 总被引：6，自引：4，他引：2
Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) have been widely used to monitor variations in the earth’s ionosphere by estimating total electron content (TEC) using dual-frequency observations. Differential code biases (DCBs) are one of the important error sources in estimating precise TEC from GNSS data. The International GNSS Service (IGS) Analysis Centers have routinely provided DCB estimates for GNSS satellites and IGS ground receivers, but the DCBs for regional and local network receivers are not provided. Furthermore, the DCB values of GNSS satellites or receivers are assumed to be constant over 1?day or 1?month, which is not always the case. We describe Matlab code to estimate GNSS satellite and receiver DCBs for time intervals from hours to days; the software is called M_DCB. The DCBs of GNSS satellites and ground receivers are tested and evaluated using data from the IGS GNSS network. The estimates from M_DCB show good agreement with the IGS Analysis Centers with a mean difference of less than 0.7?ns and an RMS of less than 0.4?ns, even for a single station DCB estimate. 相似文献
