Ionospheric scintillation intensity fading characteristics and GPS receiver tracking performance at low latitudes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of scintillation on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver tracking loop performance, with consequential effects on positioning, and showed that the occurrence of the intensity fading at the low-latitude station of Presidente Prudente is extremely frequent.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Stanford – ESA Integrity Diagram: A New Tool for The User Domain SBAS Integrity Assessment

TL;DR: Real measurement results are presented here showing that EGNOS integrity margins remain safe under this very exigent criterion, which is certainly a very positive result.

Enhancements of the Range Consensus Algorithm (RANCO)

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a range consensus (RANCO) algorithm for detecting multiple satellite failures at a time, which not only allows the determination of good estimates of the current ranging biases but also allows to determine an optimal subset selection process.

Use of Multiple Antennas to Mitigate Carrier Phase Multipath in Reference Stations

J.K. Ray
TL;DR: An algorithm to estimate carrier phase multipath in a static environment using measurements from multiple closelyspaced antennas is developed and demonstrated and is shown to significantly remove carrierphase multipath, especially the longer period effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ionospheric path delay models for spaceborne GPS receivers flying in formation with large baselines

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that delays predicted by the isotropic model are highly correlated with those estimated using GPS measurements, and the zero-difference ionospheric delays model is not likely to be an alternative to methods exploiting carrier-phase observables for cancelling out the ionosphere contribution in single-frequency absolute navigation filters.

Wide Area Differential GPS

TL;DR: Simulation results indicate that normal GPS positioning errors can potentially be reduced by more than 95% using WADGPS.

Ephemeris and Clock Navigation Message Accuracy

J. Zumberge, +1 more
TL;DR: The accuracy of the ephemeris and clock corrections contained in the GPS navigation message is discussed.

GPS and Inertial Integration

TL;DR: This chapter devotes one section to address each of the following questions: how complex are the integration algorithms required to provide the desired level of performance, with options for growth to meet future requirements?

Test Range Instrumentation

TL;DR: In the early 1970s, laser trackers became available to support test activities as discussed by the authors, and a combination of radar, distance-measuring equipment (DME), optical trackers such as cinetheodolites, and other miscellaneous instrumentation to provide time-space position information (TSPI) to satisfy test platform positioning requirements.
