چکیده

Precise corrections with a three-dimensional voxel model of the ionosphere based on global navigation satellite system (GNSS) data from a wide-area network of ground receivers can help resolve differential carrier-phase ambiguities over very long baselines of hundreds of kilometers in present two-frequency systems [global positioning system (GPS) and global orbiting navigation satellite system (GLONASS)] or in planned three-frequency systems (GALILEO, Modernized GPS). A study based on simulated three-frequency data from a modified GNSS signal generator indicates that all the phase ambiguities could be resolved successfully more than 90% of the time. This should be useful in surveying large areas with instruments that require very precise geolocation (e.g., radar or Lidar altimetry, interferometric synthetic aperture radar, interferometric sonar, etc.)

Wide Area Real Time Kinematics with Galileo and GPS Signals

The main factor limiting the range extension of the Real Time Kinematics technique beyond few tens of kilometers is the differential ionospheric correction between the roving and the nearest reference GNSS station. Such ionospheric correction impedes the real-time ambiguity fixing, and the corresponding accurate navigation at the sub-decimeter level. In this paper, the authors present the recen...

Modernizing WAAS

The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) became operational on July 10, 2003. Currently this system provides en-route through non-precision approach guidance. Further, the signals are capable of providing vertical guidance to bring an aircraft within 250 feet of the ground. WAAS offers significant benefit to both aviation and non-aviation users. However, the vertical guidance availability is vu...

Vertical Guidance Performance Analysis of the L1–L5 Dual-Frequency GPS/WAAS User Avionics Sensor

This paper investigates the potential vertical guidance performance of global positioning system (GPS)/wide area augmentation system (WAAS) user avionics sensor when the modernized GPS and Galileo are available. This paper will first investigate the airborne receiver code noise and multipath (CNMP) confidence (σair). The σair will be the dominant factor in the availability analysis of an L1-L5 ...

Accounting for Timing Biases between Gps, Modernized Gps, and Galileo Signals

GPS timing and navigation user solutions are based on pseudorange measurements made by correlating user receiver-generated replica signals with the signals broadcast by the GPS satellites. Any bias resulting from this correlation process within the user receiver tends to be common across all receiver channels when the signal characteristics are identical (code type, modulation type, and bandwid...
