The architecture of the ultra-tight GPS/INS/PL integration is the key to its successful performance; the main feature of this
architecture is the Doppler feedback to the GPS receiver tracking loops. This Doppler derived from INS, when integrated with
the carrier tracking loops, removes the Doppler due to vehicle dynamics from the GPS/PL signal thereby achieving a significant
reduction in the carrier tracking loop bandwidth. The bandwidth reduction provides several advantages such as: improvement
in anti-jamming performance, and increase in post correlated signal strength which in turn increases the dynamic range and
accuracy of measurements. Therefore, any degradation in the derived Doppler estimates will directly affect the tracking loop
bandwidth and hence its performance. The quadrature signals from the receiver correlator, I (in-phase) and Q (quadrature),
form the measurements, whereas the inertial sensor errors, position, velocity and attitude errors form the states of the complementary
Kalman filter. To specify a reliable measurement model of the filter for this type of integrated system, a good understanding
of GPS/PL signal characteristics is essential. It is shown in this paper that phase and frequency errors are the variables
that relate the measurements and the states in the Kalman filter. The main focus of this paper is to establish the fundamental
mathematical relationships that form the measurement model, and to show explicitly how the system error states are related
to the GPS/PL signals. The derived mathematical relationships encapsulated in a Kalman filter, are tested by simulation and
shown to be valid.

Digital mobile mapping, the method that integrates digital imaging with direct geo-referencing, has developed rapidly over
the past 15 years. The Kalman filter (KF) is considered an optimal estimation tool for real-time INS/GPS integrated kinematic
positioning and orientation determination. However, the accuracy requirements of general mobile mapping applications cannot
be easily achieved even when using the KF scheme. Therefore, this study proposes an intelligent scheme combining ANN and RTS
backward smoother to overcome the limitations of KF and to enhance the overall accuracy of attitude determination for tactical
grade and MEMS INS/GPS integrated systems.

Pitch and roll attitude estimation of a small-scaled helicopter using single antenna GPS with gyroscopes 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0
A method is presented for estimating the roll and pitch attitude of a small-scaled unmanned helicopter based on the velocity
measurements of the global positioning system (GPS). The small-scaled helicopter is a radio controlled (RC) model which is
readily available and affordable for academic laboratories as a research platform. Only one single antenna GPS receiver is
equipped on the RC helicopter to acquire the velocity measurements needed for the attitude estimation. The velocity information
is recorded by the onboard computer for post-processing. An attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) is used to provide
the reference attitudes. The required angular rates and heading for this study are also given by the gyroscopes and compass
of the AHRS for the sake of system’s simplification. The Kalman filter is applied to estimate the helicopter’s accelerations
by using the GPS velocity measurements. The estimated accelerations form the fundamental elements of synthesizing the pseudo-roll
and the pseudo-pitch. With some legitimate simplifications and assumptions, the relation between the helicopter’s attitudes
and the accelerations estimated from the GPS velocity measurements can be developed. Furthermore, to enhance the accuracy
of the pseudo-attitudes, the angular rates acquired from the gyroscopes are incorporated into the estimation algorithm of
pseudo-attitudes by using a complementary filter.

In this paper a MATLAB toolbox for determining the attitude of a rigid platform by means of multiple non-dedicated antennas
using global positioning system is presented. The programs embedded in this toolbox cover the RINEX data analysis, single
point positioning, differential positioning, coordinate conversion, attitude determination, and other auxiliary functions.
After forming the baselines through double-differenced (carrier phase smoothed) code observables, the attitude parameters
are obtained by applying the direct attitude computation and the least squares attitude estimation. The theoretical background
is summarized, and some hints regarding the software implementation are given in the paper. Moreover, improvements yielding
an expanded functionality are proposed.

Network-based geometry-free three carrier ambiguity resolution and phase bias calibration 总被引：5，自引：2，他引：3
Continuously operating reference stations (CORS) are increasingly used to deliver real-time and near-real-time precise positioning
services on a regional basis. A CORS network-based data processing system uses either or both of the two types of measurements:
(1) ambiguity-resolved double-differenced (DD) phase measurements, and (2) phase bias calibrated zero-differenced (ZD) phase
measurements. This paper describes generalized, network-based geometry-free models for three carrier ambiguity resolution
(TCAR) and phase bias estimation with DD and ZD code and phase measurements. First, the geometry-free TCAR models are constructed
with two Extra-Widelane (EWL)/Widelane (WL) virtual observables to allow for rapid ambiguity resolution (AR) for DD phase
measurements without distance constraints. With an ambiguity-resolved WL phase measurement and the ionospheric estimate derived
from the two EWL observables, an additional geometry-free equation is formed for the third virtual observable linearly independent
of the previous two. AR with the third geometry-free model requires a longer period of observations for averaging than the
first two, but is also distance-independent. A more general formulation of the geometry-free model for a baseline or network
is also introduced, where all the DD ambiguities can be more rigorously resolved using the LAMBDA method. Second, the geometry-free
models for calibration of three carrier phase biases of ZD phase measurements are similarly defined for selected virtual observables.
A network adjustment procedure is then used to improve the ZD phase biases with known DD integer constraints. Numerical results
from experiments with 24-h dual-frequency GPS data from three US CORS stations baseline lengths of 21, 56 and 74 km confirm
the theoretical predictions concerning AR reliability of the network-based geometry-free algorithms.

In this article, an algorithm for clock offset estimation of the GPS satellites is presented. The algorithm is based on a
Kalman-filter and processes undifferenced code and carrier-phase measurements of a global tracking network. The clock offset
and drift of the satellite clocks are estimated along with tracking station clock offsets, tropospheric zenith path delay
and carrier-phase ambiguities. The article provides a brief overview of already existing near-real-time and real-time clock
products. The filter algorithm and data processing scheme is presented. Finally, the accuracy of the orbit and clock product
is assessed with a precise orbit determination of the MetOp satellite and compared to results gained with other real-time
products.

Phase center variations of the receiver and transmitter antenna constitute a remaining uncertainty in the high precision orbit
determination (POD) of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites using GPS measurements. Triggered by the adoption of absolute phase
patterns in the IGS processing standards, a calibration of the Sensor Systems S67-1575-14 antenna with GFZ choke ring has
been conducted that serves as POD antenna on various geodetic satellites such as CHAMP, GRACE and TerraSAR-X. Nominal phase
patterns have been obtained with a robotic measurement system in a field campaign and the results were used to assess the
impact of receiver antenna phase patterns on the achievable positioning accuracy. Along with this, phase center distortions
in the actual spacecraft environment were characterized based on POD carrier phase residuals for the GRACE and TerraSAR-X
missions. It is shown that the combined ground and in-flight calibration can improve the carrier phase modeling accuracy to
a level of 4 mm which is close to the pure receiver noise. A 3.5 cm (3D rms) consistency of kinematic and reduced dynamic
orbit determination solutions is achieved for TerraSAR-X, which presumably reflects the limitations of presently available
GPS ephemeris products. The reduced dynamic solutions themselves match the observations of high grade satellite laser ranging
stations to 1.5 cm but are potentially affected by cross-track biases at the cm-level. With respect to the GPS based relative
navigation of TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X formation, the in-flight calibration of the antenna phase patterns is considered essential
for an accurate modeling of differential carrier phase measurements and a mm level baseline reconstruction.

Current cooperative positioning with global navigation satellite system (GNSS) for connected vehicle application mainly uses pseudorange measurements. However, the positioning accuracy offered cannot meet the requirements for lane-level positioning, collision avoidance and future automatic driving, which needs real-time positioning accuracy of better than 0.5 m. Furthermore, there is an apparent lack of research into the integrity issue for these new applications under emerging driverless vehicle applications. In order to overcome those problems, a new extended Kalman filter (EKF) and a multi-failure diagnosis algorithm are developed to process both GNSS pseudorange and carrier phase measurements. We first introduce a new closed-loop EKF with partial ambiguity resolution as feedback to address the low accuracy issue. Then a multi-failure diagnosis algorithm is proposed to improve integrity and reliability. The core of this new algorithm includes using Carrier phase-based Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring method for failure detection, and the double extended w test detectors to identify failure. A cooperative positioning experiment was carried out to validate the proposed method. The results show that the proposed closed-loop EKF can provide highly accurate positioning, and the multi-failure diagnosis method is effective in detecting and identifying failures for both code and carrier phase measurements. 相似文献

Ionospheric delay corrections for single-frequency GPS receivers over Europe using tomographic mapping 总被引：3，自引：2，他引：1
The majority of navigation satellites receivers operate on a single frequency and experience a positioning error due to the
ionospheric delay. This can be compensated for using a variety of approaches that are compared in this paper. The study focuses
on the last solar maximum. A 4D tomographic imaging technique is used to map the ionospheric electron density over the European
region during 2002 and 2003. The electron density maps are then used to calculate the excess propagation delay on the L1 frequency
experienced by GPS receivers at selected locations across Europe. The excess delay is applied to correct the pseudo-range
single frequency observations at each location and the improvements to the resulting positioning are calculated. The real-time
tomographic technique is shown to give navigation solutions that are better than empirical modelling methods and approach
the accuracy of the full dual-frequency solution. The improvements in positioning accuracy vary from day to day depending
on ionospheric conditions but can be up to 25 m during mid-day during these solar maximum conditions at European mid-latitudes.

The accuracy of standalone GPS positioning improved significantly when Selective Availability was turned off in May 2000. With the availability of various public GPS related products including precise satellite orbits and clocks, and ionosphere maps, a single-frequency standalone user can experience even a further improvement of the position accuracy. Next, using carrier phase measurements becomes crucial to smoothen the pseudorange noise. In this contribution, the most critical sources of error in single-frequency standalone positioning will be reviewed and different approaches to mitigate the errors will be considered. An optimal filter (using also carrier phase measurements) will be deployed. The final approach will then be evaluated in a decently long static test with receivers located in different regions of the world. Kinematic experiments have also been performed in various scenarios including a highly dynamic flight trial. The accuracy, in general, can be confirmed at 0.5 m horizontal and 1 m vertical, with static tests. Ultimate results demonstrate an accuracy close to 2 dm (95%) for the horizontal position components and 5 dm (95%) for the vertical in the flight experiment.

In Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning, the receiver measures the pseudorange with respect to each observable
navigation satellite and determines the position and clock bias. In addition to the GPS, several other navigation satellite
constellations including Glonass, Galileo and Compass can/will also be used to provide positioning, navigation, and timing
information. The paper is concerned with the solvability of the navigation problem when the receiver attempts to process measurements
from different constellations. As two different constellations may not be time-synchronized, the navigation problem involves
the determination of position of the receiver and clock bias with respect to each constellation. The paper describes an analytic
approach to account for the two-constellation navigation problem with three measurements from one constellation and two measurements
from another constellation. It is shown that the two-constellation GNSS navigation problem becomes the solving of a set of
two simultaneous quadratic equations or, equivalently, a quartic equation. Furthermore, the zero-crossover of the leading
coefficient and the sign of the discriminant of the quartic equation are shown to play a significant role in governing the
solvability, i.e., the existence and uniqueness of the navigation solutions.

This study adopts the Chiu-fen-erh-shan landslide as a case study for incorporating comprehensive accelerograph and global
positioning system (GPS) data to determine the best-fit acceleration data for analyzing a rock avalanche. Previous investigations
indicate that the distance from an accelerograph to a landslide site is crucial to determining the best-fit acceleration data
to use in conducting a seismic analysis. Unfortunately, the Chiu-fen-erh-shan landslide and its nearest accelerograph station
are located in different geological zones. Thus, GPS data were compared to the displacements derived from the accelerograms
of nearby monitoring stations to help select the best accelerograph data. This emphasizes that a high density distribution
of accelerographs and GPS installations are essential to acquire the best data for the seismic analysis, especially in complex
geological zones. After applying the best-fit accelerogram to Newmark’s sliding model and an empirical displacement attenuation
formula to back-calculate the shear strength parameters of the sliding surface, a cohesion of 0 kPa and friction angle of
the sliding surface of 24.8° were found for this landslide.

Engineering projects that require deformation monitoring frequently utilize geodetic sensors to measure displacements of target
points located in the deformation zone. In situations where control stations and targets are separated by a kilometer or more,
GPS can offer higher precision position updates at more frequent intervals than can normally be achieved using total station
technology. For large-scale deformation projects requiring the highest precision, it is therefore advisable to use a combination
of the two sensors. In response to the need for high precision, continuous GPS position updates in harsh deformation monitoring
environments, a software has been developed that employs triple-differenced carrier-phase measurements in a delayed-state
Kalman filter. Two data sets were analyzed to test the capabilities of the software. In the first test, a GPS antenna was
displaced using a translation stage to mimic slow deformation. In the second test, data collected at a large open pit mine
were processed. It was shown that the delayed-state Kalman filter developed could detect millimeter-level displacements of
a GPS antenna. The actual precision attained depends upon the amount of process noise infused at each epoch to accommodate
the antenna displacements. Higher process noise values result in quicker detection times, but at the same time increase the
noise in the solutions. A slow, 25 mm displacement was detected within 30 min of the full displacement with sigma values in
E, N and U of ±10 mm or better. The same displacement could also be detected in less than 5 h with sigma values in E, N and U of ±5 mm or better. The software works best for detecting long period deformations (e.g., 20 mm per day or less) for which
sigma values of 1–2 mm are attained in all three solution components. It was also shown that the triple-differenced carrier-phase
observation can be used to significantly reduce the effects of residual tropospheric delay that would normally plague double-differenced
observations in harsh GPS environments.

Many kinematic GPS applications rely on high accuracy, which usually requires the ambiguities to be fixed. Normally, a reference station in the rover’s vicinity is needed for successful ambiguity resolution. Alternatively, a network surrounding the rover and allowing one to derive area correction parameters is needed. Unfortunately, both approaches are not feasible in certain situations. This paper is a contribution to precise kinematic positioning over long baselines. Atmospheric refraction becomes critical in the error budget, but progress has been made to use numerical weather models to derive tropospheric corrections, for instance. The spatial correlation of both ionospheric and tropospheric propagation delays is investigated in this paper and special attention is paid on the systematic error behavior of tropospheric refraction. The principles developed are applied to an extended reliability test of the ambiguities. Finally, it is demonstrated in positioning experiments that kinematic positioning retrieval with fixed ambiguities is actually possible for baselines between 150 and 300 km with an accuracy of approximately 2 cm in post-mission processing.

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.

Artificial neural networks for predicting DGPS carrier phase and pseudorange correction 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0
Arif Indriyatmoko Taesam Kang Young Jae Lee Gyu-In Jee Yong Beom Cho Jeongrae Kim 《GPS Solutions》2008,12(4):237-247
Artificial neural networks (ANNs) were used to predict the differential global positioning system (DGPS) pseudorange and carrier
phase correction information. Autoregressive moving average (ARMA) and autoregressive (AR) models were bounded with neural
networks to provide predictions of the correction. The neural network was employed to realize time-varying implementation.
Online training for real-time prediction of the carrier phase enhances the continuity of service of the differential correction
signals and, therefore, improves the positioning accuracy. When the correction signal from the DGPS was lost, the artificial
neural networks predicted the correction data with good accuracy for the navigation system during a limited period. Comparisons
of the prediction results using the two models are given.

Antenna changes at GNSS reference stations frequently produce discontinuities in the coordinate time series. These apparent
position shifts are mainly caused by changes of carrier-phase multipath effects and different errors in the antenna phase
center corrections. A monitoring method was developed and successfully tested, which requires additional GNSS observations
from a local, temporary reference station. Changes of carrier-phase measurement errors due to the antenna change are determined
and stored in L1 and L2 phase maps. These phase maps provide corrections to be applied either to the observation data obtained
before the antenna change or to the observation data obtained after the antenna change. The observation corrections are able
to remove coordinate discontinuities independent of the selected coordinate estimation algorithm.
