An analysis of tropospheric properties of the Mileura site
نویسنده
چکیده
Introduction The SKA site submission process requests an analysis of the tropospheric properties of the candidate sites as they relate to the SKA. The request should be viewed in the context of a radio telescope operating at up to 25 GHz. In particular the RFP requests information on ? Local tropospheric transparency and “microscopic tropospheric stability” ? Diurnal and annual variation of the precipitable water vapour (PWV) content towards the zenith, including statistical insight into its value. As a form of guidance, a memo has been produced by Erasmus (2005), which gives some insight into analysis that could be used in the site submission process.

Accuracy Improvement of Tropospheric Delay Interpolation in RTK Networks
The effect of troposphere on the signals emitted from global navigation satellite system (GNSS) satellites, appears as an extra delay in the measurement of the signal traveling from the satellite to receiver. This delay depends on the temperature, pressure, humidity as well as the transmitter and receiver antennas location. In GNSS positioning, tropospheric delay effects on accuracy of differen...

متن کاملInvestigation of MODIS mission capability in tropospheric delay estimation for precise point positioning
Tropospheric delay is always considered as one of the factors limiting the accuracy of GPS. In this paper, the three-dimensional ray tracing technique is proposed to calculate the tropospheric delay. The ability of the MODIS mission to calculate the tropospheric delay is also examined. For this purpose, an area in central Europe was selected and a MODIS acquisition on 2008/08/01 was studied. In...
