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.

The global navigation satellite system receiver for atmospheric sounding (GRAS) on MetOp-A is the first European GPS receiver
providing dual-frequency navigation and occultation measurements from a spaceborne platform on a routine basis. The receiver
is based on ESA’s AGGA-2 correlator chip, which implements a high-quality tracking scheme for semi-codeless P(Y) code tracking
on the L1 and L2 frequency. Data collected with the zenith antenna on MetOp-A have been used to perform an in-flight characterization
of the GRAS instrument with focus on the tracking and navigation performance. Besides an assessment of the receiver noise
and systematic measurement errors, the study addresses the precise orbit determination accuracy achievable with the GRAS receiver.
A consistency on the 5 cm level is demonstrated for reduced dynamics orbit solutions computed independently by four different
agencies and software packages. With purely kinematic solutions, 10 cm accuracy is obtained. As a part of the analysis, an
empirical antenna offset correction and preliminary phase center correction map are derived, which notably reduce the carrier
phase residuals and improve the consistency of kinematic orbit determination results.

The EUREF permanent network (EPN) is a network of continuously operating global navigation satellite system (GNSS) stations, primarily installed for reference frame maintenance. In order to ensure the long term reliability of the EPN products, a thorough station performance monitoring has been initiated and carried out in addition to the routine GNSS data management, processing and analysis. This paper addresses the main factors influencing the quality of the coordinate time series in a permanent GNSS network. Relevant examples, based on the EPN experience are given, the analysis strategy is introduced, the estimated coordinate offsets are published and the importance of this analysis for site velocity estimation is demonstrated. The results are derived from the analysis of the EPN weekly combined solutions covering the period from 1996 to 2003. Our target is the identification, interpretation and elimination of offsets and outliers present in the EPN coordinate time series in order to estimate reliable coordinates and velocities and consequently maintain a high quality kinematic reference network.

Effective management of critical network infrastructure requires the assessment of potential interdiction scenarios. Optimization
approaches have been essential for identifying and evaluating such scenarios in networked systems. Although a primary function
of any network is the distribution of flow between origins and destinations, the complexity and difficulty of mathematically
abstracting interdiction impacts on connectivity or flow has been a challenge for researchers. This paper presents an optimization
approach for identifying interdiction bounds with respect to connectivity and/or flow associated with a system of origins
and destinations. Application results for telecommunications flow are presented, illustrating the capabilities of this approach.

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.

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.

Artificial neural networks for predicting DGPS carrier phase and pseudorange correction 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0

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.

A data archive of GPS navigation messages 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1
Since 18 June 2007 navigation data messages transmitted by the GPS constellation are recorded by five receivers within GeoForschungsZentrum’s
global groundstation network. We describe the recording, processing, validation, analysis and archiving of the navigation
data. During the 197 days between 18 June 2007 and 31 December 2007 a total of 125,723,666 subframes were collected. By taking
into consideration that the same data set frequently is observed by two or more receivers concurrently, 65,153,955 unique
subframes could be extracted from the observations. With an estimated 88,099,200 subframes transmitted by the constellation
during this time period a data yield of about 74% was achieved. Simulation studies suggest that with two additional GPS receivers,
which are scheduled for addition to the network in 2008, about 95% of the transmitted subframes will be retrieved. The message
data archive is open to the scientific community for non-commercial purposes and may be accessed through GFZ’s Information
System and Data Center ().

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.

Reliability analysis is inseparably connected with the formulation of failure scenarios, and common test statistics are based on specific assumptions. This is easily overlooked when processing observation differences. Poor failure identification performance and misleading pre-analysis results, mainly meaningless minimum detectable biases and external reliability measures, are the consequence. A reasonable failure scenario for use with differenced GNSS observations is formulated which takes into account that individual outliers in the original data affect more than one processed observation. The proper test statistics and reliability indicators are given for use with correlated observations and both batch processing and Kalman filtering. It is also shown that standardized residuals and redundancy numbers fail completely when used with double differenced observations.

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.

High-frequency multipath would be problematic for studies at seismic or antenna dynamical frequencies as one could mistakenly
interpret them as signals. A simple procedure to identify high-frequency multipath from global positioning system (GPS) time
series records is presented. For this purpose, data from four GPS base stations are analyzed using spectral analyses techniques.
Additional data, such as TEQC report files of L1 pseudorange multipath, are also used to analyze the high-frequency multipath
and confirmation of the high-frequency multipath inferred from the phase records. Results show that this simple procedure
is effective in identification of high-frequency multipath. The inferred information can aid interpretation of multipath at
the GPS site, and is important for a number of reasons. For example, the information can be used to study GPS site selections
and/or installations.

Hidden negative spatial autocorrelation 总被引：3，自引：3，他引：0
Daniel A. Griffith 《Journal of Geographical Systems》2006,8(4):335-355
Mostly lip service treatments of negative spatial autocorrelation (NSA) appear in the literature, although spatial scientists confront it in practice. NSA was detected serendipitously in recalcitrant empirical analyses containing a sizeable amount of global positive spatial autocorrelation (PSA) unaccounted for by standard spatial statistical models, and labeled hidden because conventional spatial statistical tools detected only PSA while giving absolutely not hint of NSA existing. The meaning of this phenomenon is explored empirically, with findings including: a better understanding of NSA, spatial filter model construction guidelines, effective illustrations of NSA, and how hidden NSA furnishes a diagnostic for model misspecification.

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.

Troposphere zenith path delays derived from the Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS) numerical weather model (NWM) are compared
with those of the International GNSS Service (IGS) solutions over a 1.5-year period at 18 globally distributed IGS stations.
Meteorological parameters can be interpolated from the NWM model at any location and at any time after December 2004. The
meteorological parameters extracted from the NWM model agree with in situ direct measurements at some IGS stations within
1 mbar for pressure, 3° for temperature and 13% for relative humidity. The hydrostatic and wet components of the zenith path
delay (ZPD) are computed using the meteorological parameters extracted from the NWM model. The total ZPDs derived from the
GDAS NWM agree with the IGS ZPD solutions at 3.0 cm RMS level with biases of up to 4.5 cm, which can be attributed to the
wet ZPDs estimates from the NWM model, considering the less accurate interpolated relative humidity parameter. Based on this
study, it is suggested that the availability and the precision of the GDAS NWM ZPD should be sufficient for nearly all GPS
navigation solutions.

Separate space- or time-lags have been considered regularly in data analyses; as space–time models are more recently being
studied extensively in data analytic fashion, joint estimation of both lags has to be considered explicitly. This paper addresses
this issue, taking into special consideration parametric parsimony together with specification richness; use of the bivariate
Poisson frequency distribution is advocated and applied to an empirical case. The relation of this approach to random effects
specifications is investigated. Data for Belgian regional products constitute the empirical case study.

Fast direct GPS P-Code acquisition 总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5
GPS P-Code has a higher chipping rate, better accuracy, and anti-jamming property than C/A code. Traditionally, GPS P-Code acquisition depends on handover from C/A code. This potentially needs long acquisition time. Moreover, when C/A code is not available, it is no longer possible to acquire GPS P-Code through handover from C/A code. The purpose of this paper is to describe a new overlap average method to facilitate hardware design of fast direct P-Code acquisition. It allows the rapid code phase search to acquire GPS P-Code signals, and also decreases the hardware resource requirement. The small size FFT in the proposed methods is very promising for fast FPGA hardware system design using FFT cores. The simulation results and theoretical analysis are included demonstrating the overall performance of the proposed method.

Show me the code: spatial analysis and open source 总被引：3，自引：1，他引：2

This paper considers the intersection of academic spatial analysis with the open source revolution. Its basic premise is that
the potential for cross-fertilization between the two is rich, yet some misperceptions about these two communities pose challenges
to realizing these opportunities. The paper provides a primer on the open source movement for academicians with an eye towards
correcting these misperceptions. It identifies a number of ways in which increased adoption of open source practices in spatial
analysis can enhance the development of the next generation of tools and the wider practice of scientific research and education.

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.

This paper presents an innovative approach to the study of regional economic dynamics within a nonlinear continuous-time econometric
framework—a generalized specification of the Lotka–Volterra system of equations. This specification, which accounts for interdependent
behavior of three industrial sectors and spillover effects of activities in neighboring regions, is employed in an analysis
of five Italian regions between 1980 and 2003. For these regions, we report estimation results, characterize the varying systems
dynamics, analyze the models’ local and global stability properties, and determine via sensitivity analyses which structural
features appear to exert the greatest influence on these properties.
