Combined GPS/GLONASS Precise Point Positioning with Fixed GPS Ambiguities

Precise point positioning (PPP) technology is mostly implemented with an ambiguity-float solution. Its performance may be further improved by performing ambiguity-fixed resolution. Currently, the PPP integer ambiguity resolutions (IARs) are mainly based on GPS-only measurements. The integration of GPS and GLONASS can speed up the convergence and increase the accuracy of float ambiguity estimate...

Modeling and Assessment of GPS/BDS Combined Precise Point Positioning

Precise Point Positioning (PPP) technique enables stand-alone receivers to obtain cm-level positioning accuracy. Observations from multi-GNSS systems can augment users with improved positioning accuracy, reliability and availability. In this paper, we present and evaluate the GPS/BDS combined PPP models, including the traditional model and a simplified model, where the inter-system bias (ISB) i...

Precise Point Positioning Using Combined GPS and GLONASS Observations

Precise Point Positioning (PPP) is currently based on the processing of only GPS observations. Its positioning accuracy, availability and reliability are very dependent on the number of visible satellites, which is often insufficient in the environments such as urban canyons, mountain and open-pit mines areas. Even in the open area where sufficient GPS satellites are available, the accuracy and...

GPS Phase-Connected, Precise Point Positioning of Low Earth Orbiters

A completely geometric approach for precise orbit determination (POD) of low earth orbiter (LEO) spacecraft has been devised by the authors which does not use dynamic models, but only data from the GPS receiver onboard the LEO and the International GPS Service (IGS) precise GPS ephemeris product. The strategy relies on combining the time-continuous measurement strength of the pseudorange and ca...
