Introduction to PPP PPP originally presented by Zumberge et al. 1997 • Dual frequency, single constellation model • Widely used for real-time applications e.g. mining, agriculture, construction surveying • Drawback : requires float Ambiguity Convergence of typically 30min • Various enhancements introduced over the years, e.g. PPP-AR. Convergence time remains an issue This Contribution : Use MFMC (>2 freq.) data to develop enhanced PPP models with reduced convergence time Focus on float ambiguity convergence • PPP-AR considered in future research Novel triple frequency linear combinations Compare and evaluate performance Curtin University is a trademark of Curtin University of Technology International Global Navigation Satellite Systems Conference, 6-8 December 2016 CRICOS Provider Code 00301J Curtin University is a trademark of Curtin University of Technology 2 CRICOS Provider Code 00301J
Modelling of Biases Models for cm-mm level errors: solid earth tide, ocean tide, atmospheric loading, phase wind-up, satellite antenna phase centre offset, relativity. Troposphere: model hydrostatic and estimate wet component Ionosphere: form iono-free combinations or estimate with multi-frequency data Single Constellation Biases • Satellite and receiver hardware biases: affects phase and code. Digital delays in the signal generator, signal distortion, etc. Removed at receiver end by BSSD. Satellite end stable over typical PPP session • Differential Code Biases (DCB) : differences in hardware bias due to frequency difference. Not required if using iono-free combination of ‘reference signals’ Curtin University is a trademark of Curtin University of Technology International Global Navigation Satellite Systems Conference, 6-8 December 2016 CRICOS Provider Code 00301J Curtin University is a trademark of Curtin University of Technology 3 CRICOS Provider Code 00301J
Modelling of Biases Single Constellation Biases… • Initial Fractional Phase Bias (IFPB): exist in satellite and receiver and <1cycle. Constant for each session; reset when receiver is switched off and on. Removed at receiver end by BSSD • Differential Phase Biases (DPB): due to phase hardware bias differing for each frequency. Inseparable from IFPB, combined as one term. • Lumped with non-integer carrier phase ambiguity term. PPP-AR requires accurate calibration. Multi-constellation Biases • Inter-System Time Bias (ISTB): due to each constellation having own timescales. Accounted for by: 1. estimating a separate bias for each system, or 2. estimating the bias for one system and then estimating the differences for other systems with reference to this system • Inter System Biases (ISB): Due to signals from different constellations having different hardware biases (even though having same frequency). • Estimate as a parameter or BSSD within same constellation.
