从信噪比、伪距残差、相位残差等方面对开阔环境下的静态谷歌Nexus 9智能平板终端的原始全球导航卫星系统（Global Navigation Satellite System,GNSS）观测数据质量进行了分析评估,结果表明,Nexus 9平板的全球定位系统（Global Positioning System,GPS）、GLONASS观测值的信噪比比测量型接收机低10 dBHz左右;伪距精度分别为5.43 m、11.39 m,相位精度分别为4.44 mm、4.99 mm;相对于高度角来说,信噪比与伪距残差的相关性更强,更能反映观测数据的质量。在此基础上给出了信噪比定权的随机模型,并进行了开阔环境下的伪距单点定位测试。实验结果表明,基于信噪比定权的单点定位平面精度为2.74 m,高程精度为4.56m,比高度角定权精度提高了约26%。     

Doppler Surveying with the JMR-1 Receiver

Geoceiver observations of Navy Navigational Satellites are generally reduced by the Method of Independent Point Positioning using the NSWC Precise Ephemeris. With this approach RMS Errors on the order of one meter have been demonstrated for relative geodetic positioning based on reduction of approximately 40 passes per station. Under the same circumstances, but with the Broadcast Ephemeris being used in place of the Precise Ephemeris, accuracies on the order of 3 to 5 meters are normally to be expected. Here, the more rigorous Short Arc Method can be used to significant advantage to overcome the shortcomings of the Broadcast Ephemeris. Results of a recent field test involving a net occupied by four JMR-1 Doppler Receivers show that the Short Arc Method can produce relative accuracies of better than one meter from as few as 25 passes per station when the Broadcast Ephemeris is used.

Total zero Doppler Steering-a new method for minimizing the Doppler centroid

This letter presents a new method, called total Zero Doppler steering, to perform yaw and pitch steering for spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems. The new method reduces the Doppler centroid to theoretically 0 Hz, independent of the range position of interest. Residual errors are only due to pointing inaccuracy or due to approximations in the implementation of the total zero Doppler steering law. This letter compares the new method with currently applied methods. The attitude angles and the residual Doppler centroid frequencies are calculated and depicted exemplarily for the parameters of TerraSAR-X, for which the new method will be implemented and used. The new method provides a number of advantages. The low residual Doppler centroid and the reduced variation of the Doppler centroid over range allow a more accurate Doppler centroid estimation. Due to the low residual Doppler centroid, the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) processing can be alleviated, since the range cell migration is reduced and the Doppler frequencies are low. This facilitates the use of very efficient processing algorithms, which are based on approximations whose quality is better for low Doppler frequencies. The new method will furthermore optimize the overlap of the azimuth spectra of SAR image pairs for cross-track interferometry. Low Doppler centroids will also reduce the impact of coregistration errors on the interferometric phase. Furthermore, scalloping corrections in the ScanSAR processing are alleviated due to the low variation of the Doppler centroid over range.     

A simulation study of multi-beam altimetry for lunar reconnaissance orbiter and other planetary missions

The combined use of altimetry, Earth-based Doppler and Earth-based range measurements in the lunar reconnaissance orbiter (LRO) mission (Chin et al. in Space Sci Rev 129:391–419, 2007) has been examined in a simulation study. It is found that in the initial phases of the mission orbit and altimeter geolocation accuracies should be better than 10 m in the radial component and 60 m overall. It is demonstrated that LRO’s precise 1-way laser range measurement from Earth-based stations (Smith et al. in Proceedings of the 15th International Laser Ranging Workshop, Canberra, Australia, October 15–20, 2006) will be useful for gravity recovery. The advantages of multiple laser beams are demonstrated for altimeter calibration, orbit determination and gravity recovery in general planetary settings as well as for LRO.     

Using the Global Positioning System (GPS) for geodetic positioning

The development of relatively inexpensive satellite receivers in the early 1970's has resulted in cost-effective applications of satellites for a variety of geodetic surveying needs. Currently achievable accuracies range from 10 to 20 centimeters. The NAVSTAR Global Positioning System, now under development by the Department of Defense, incorporates advanced technology which has the potential capability of revolutionizing satellite geodesy. Several concepts for utilizing GPS signals are briefly reviewed, and another concept, called the reconstructed carrier phase method, is described in some detail. This concept is being pursued by the Defense Mapping Agency, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the U.S. Geological Survey. These agencies have numerous requirements for accurate positioning. Several prototype receivers are planned to be available for testing in mid-1982. These receivers should be highly portable, consume little power, and obtain base line accuracies of several centimeters in several hours of observation time. However, water vapor radiometers will be needed in order to achieve the full accuracy. Initial simulation results utilizing the reconstructed carrier phase method are included.     

Effects on Three-Dimensional Geosynchronous Circular SAR Imaging by Orbit Errors

Circular SAR imaging on the geosynchronous orbit is an innovative SAR imaging mode, which can perform high resolution three-dimensional (3D) imaging with continuous observations for a large area. However, for geosynchronous satellites the orbit is severely disturbed by perturbing effects, and the orbit error will be an important factor influencing the SAR imaging on the geosynchronous orbit. In this paper, the effects of the orbit error on performances of 3D geosynchronous circular SAR (GEOCSAR) imaging are analyzed. The error model is firstly made, and then the orbit error propagating into the distance from the radar to the target (range) is derived. Furthermore, the effects of different components of the range error on the quality of focused SAR signals are deduced, based on the 3D GEOCSAR signal model with time-domain correlation algorithm. The analyses and simulations will quantify and verify the required accuracies of GEOCSAR orbit estimation for ensuring the 3D imaging quality.

Reparameterization of single difference and undifferenced kinematic GPS positioning models

A series of advantages of single difference(SD)and undifferenced(ZD)models are given as compared with the double difference(DD)model.However,rank defects exist in SD and ZD models.The reparameterization method is provided to resolve this rank defect problem by estimating some combinations of the unknowns rather than the unknowns themselves.The reparameterization of SD and ZD functional models is discussed in detail with their stochastic models.The theoretical confirmation of the equivalence of undifferenced and differenced models is described in a straightforward way.The relationship between SD and ZD residuals is given and verified for some special purposes,e.g.research on the stochastical properties of GPS observations.     

Relative suitability of indices derived from Landsat ETM+ and SPOT 5 for detecting fire severity in sagebrush steppe

Remote sensing indices of burn area and fire severity have been developed and tested for forest ecosystems, but not sparsely vegetated, desert shrub-steppe in which large wildfires are a common occurrence and a major issue for land management. We compared the performance of remote sensing indices for detecting burn area and fire severity with extensive ground-based cover assessments made before and after the prescribed burning of a 3 km² shrub-steppe area. The remote sensing indices were based on either Landsat 7 ETM+ or SPOT 5 data, using either single or multiple dates of imagery. The indices delineating burned versus unburned areas had better overall, User, and Producer's accuracies than indices delineating levels of fire severity. The Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI) calculated from SPOT had the greatest overall accuracy (100%) in delineating burned versus unburned areas. The relative differenced Normalized Burn Ratio (RdNBR) using Landsat ETM+ provided the highest accuracies (73% overall accuracy) for delineating fire severity. Though SPOT's spatial resolution likely conferred advantages for determining burn boundaries, the higher spectral resolution (particularly band 7, 2.21 μm) of Landsat ETM+ may be necessary for detecting differences in fire severity in sparsely vegetated shrub-steppe.     

GPS phase accelerations for moving-base vector gravimetry

For airborne gravimetry using INS and GPS, the accelerations from both systems are differenced to yield the gravity acceleration. Usually, the GPS acceleration is determined by first solving for the position of the vehicle relative to a base station and subsequently taking two time derivatives of the vertical component. An alternative method is to time-differentiate the observed phases directly, thus avoiding the cycle ambiguity problem that must be solved for positioning and that is fraught with (certainly not insurmountable) difficulties in the event of a cycle slip. Due to the largely unpredictable receiver-clock errors and the imposition of the Selective Availability degradation, doubly differenced (in space) phase accelerations are used to obtain the relative vehicle accelerations. Test results for stationary receivers show that the acceleration vector can be determined from phase accelerations to an accuracy of 1 mgal for 40-s averages. The mathematical formulation of the acceleration determination also highlights certain other advantages over traditional methods, such as the avoidance of the E?tv?s correction, although a similar kind of velocity effect must be determined.

Ionospheric effects on differential GPS applications during auroral substorm activity

The use of the Global Positioning System (GPS) technology has become increasingly incorporated into airborne remote sensing applications over the past decade. While GPS positioning results may prove adequate for several applications at present, users should expect to experience degraded positioning accuracies over the next few years due to auroral substorm activity. Such degraded accuracies will arise from increased spatial decorrelation of ionosphere range delay errors in differential GPS applications, as the ionospheric activity increases during solar maximum. In this paper, the spatial decorrelation of ionospheric range delay is estimated during a substorm event and compared with “quiet” time values. Positional errors (in both vertical and horizontal measurements) in the range 60–80 cm RMSE were observed during a 1997 substorm event that is representative of the activity anticipated at solar maximum around the year 2000.     

基于站际历元二次差模型探测与修复周跳的新方法

周跳探测与修复是高精度动态GPS定位的关键技术之一,直接影响模糊度在航解算的效率。针对动态相对定位中周跳探测方法“三差法”的不足,提出一种基于站际历元二次差模型进行探测与修复周跳的新方法。首先对站际历元间二次差观测值进行粗差探测,以确定发生周跳的卫星以及周跳初值;然后基于残差平方和最小原则搜索周跳备选组合并修复周跳。理论分析和实验结果均表明,当有效共视卫星多于4颗时,大多数情况下,新方法可以准确定位并修复周跳。

Reliability checking for GNSS baseline and network processing

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.

A Novel Approach to Range Doppler SAR Processing Based on Legendre Orthogonal Polynomials

The range Doppler algorithm (RDA) is based on Taylor series expansion for the transfer function (TF) phase component, resulting in increasing phase error as the range frequency or the squint angle increases. We introduce Legendre orthogonal polynomials into synthetic aperture radar data processing steps to replace Taylor series expansion used in approximating the TF phase. A novel range Doppler imaging approach based on Legendre expansion is addressed with an extended RDA as example, and the analytical expressions of the new phase multiplication factors are then derived. The simulation results show that the proposed method provides better focusing performance than the conventional RDA in the same squint case and is more suitable for the large squint mode while there is negligible increment of computation load.     

综合伪距相位观测的北斗导航系统广域差分模型

我国区域北斗卫星导航系统为用户提供开放服务和授权服务两种服务方式,其中授权服务主要提供一维等效钟差改正数和完好性信息,实现更高精度的服务性能。北斗卫星导航系统提供的实时差分信息是基于CNMC平滑后的伪距观测数据计算,其精度受到残余伪距噪声的限制。为提升系统广域差分服务性能,本文提出了一种广域差分新模型。该模型综合了伪距及相位观测数据,并新增了轨道改正数。模型中经相位平滑的伪距观测值用于定义钟差改正数和轨道改正数的基准,而相位历元间差分观测值用于计算约束差分改正数的高精度相对变化。论文分析了数据采样率、测站个数等因素对新模型的影响,并采用中国区域内的观测站数据对新模型进行精度验证。试验结果表明:(1)基于新广域差分模型的GEO卫星UDRE指标相对原有模型提升了27%,IGSO卫星指标提升了35%,MEO卫星指标提升了24%;(2)基于新的广域差分模型,用户在南北、东西、高程方向的伪距定位精度分别提升了23%、32%和52%,实现了北斗系统用户导航定位三维定位精度优于1m的指标。     

GLONASS频间码偏差实时估计方法及其在RTK定位中的应用

GLONASS伪距频间偏差难以利用经验模型消除。在RTK定位解算中,尤其是需顾及大气延迟的中长距离异质基线,IFCB会降低模糊度收敛速度,甚至导致模糊度固定错误。本文基于双差HMW组合和消电离层组合,提出一种站间IFCB实时估计算法,实时获取各频段的非组合站间单差IFCB。试验结果表明,站间IFCB长期稳定,可达数个纳秒;在GPS/GLONASS观测值先验误差比值为3：5的条件下,未改正的IFCB可能导致基线GPS/GLONASS组合RTK定位性能比单GPS差。将本文提出算法应用于RTK定位,能够有效消除IFCB的影响,RTK模糊度浮点解精度、定位收敛速度和固定率都有明显改善,部分基线的RTK定位首次固定时间从9.2 s提高到2.1 s,固定解比率从84.5%提高到97.9%。
