Gps as a Structuraldeformation Sensor
A new method of sensing the vibrational motions of a exible structure by measuring the di erence in GPS (global positioning system) carrier phase at separate antennas on the structure is presented. Differential carrier phase measurements have been recently used to determine the attitude of rigid bodies such as aircraft and spacecraft, and for aircraft landing with ground based GPS pseudolites. ...
متن کاملGPS=GLONASS-based TEC measurements as a contributor for space weather forecast
Space weather monitoring and forecast require a permanent monitoring of the ionospheric state on global scale. The world-wide use of global navigation satellite systems such as GPS and GLONASS o7ers the unique chance for a permanent monitoring of the total ionization (total electron content—TEC) of the global ionosphere=plasmasphere up to about 20000 km height. In this study we turn our attenti...
متن کاملA Beginner ’ s Guide to Space Weather and GPS
This brief paper is written for GPS engineers or systems designers who need to know about space weather. Just as an architect might need to know about hurricanes or tornadoes, characterizing space weather enables designers to understand vulnerabilities in their designs, to create more robust designs, and to determine how best to avoid risk. Space weather is a somewhat arcane topic studied by a ...
متن کاملCommercial GPS in the Stratosphere: Cell Phone GPS Receiver Performance on a High Altitude Weather Balloon
The primary objective of this effort was to characterize the GPS performance of a smartphone at high altitudes. Due to International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) restrictions in the United States, very little GPS data above 60,000 ft (18.3 km) is openly available. Tethered to a high altitude weather balloon, a Google Nexus S cell phone was taken to high altitudes while logging GPS data. I...
متن کاملAutomated Weather Sensor Quality Control
In this paper, we investigate the application of data mining to existing techniques for quality control/anomaly detection on weather sensor observations. Specifically we adapt the popular Barnes Spatial interpolation method to use time series distance rather than spatial distance to develop an online algorithm that uses readings from similar stations based on current and historical observations...
