Enhanced Broadcast Ephemeris for High Accuracy Assisted GPS Positioning
Yoaz Bar-Sever, Byron Iijima, Aldo Navarro, Larry Romans, Jan Weiss
Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology
Enhanced broadcast ephemeris (e-BCE) is a novel A-GNSS product that uses the conventional RINEX broadcast ephemeris format to compensate for all key error sources in user positioning. It enables mobile wireless devices to obtain meter-level positioning without altering existing protocols or data interfaces anywhere along the A-GNSS communications chain.

Real-Time Sub-cm Differential Orbit Determination of Two Low-Earth Orbiters
with GPS Bias Fixing
Sien Wu and Yoaz Bar-Sever
Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology
An effective technique for real-time differential orbit
determination of two low Earth orbiters with GPS bias
fixing is formulated. With this technique, only moderatequality
GPS orbit and clock states (e.g., as available in
real-time from the Global Differential GPS
System with 1020 cm accuracy) are needed to seed the
process.

Orbit Determination With NASA's High Accuracy Real-Time Global Differential GPS System
R. J. Muellerschoen, A. Reichert, D. Kuang, M. Heflin, W. I. Bertiger and Y. E. Bar-Sever
GPS orbits and clocks are computed in real-time with data from NASA's
global GPS network. The accuracy of the GPS orbits and reference
frame alignment to ITRF'97 is discussed. The dissemination of the
global correction message is over the Internet, and a signal-in-space
(SIS) is provided by America's Inmarsat satellite. The SIS will soon
expand for global coverage with Inmarsat's ASPAC (Asia/Pacific) and
EMEA (Europe/Africa) satellites yielding coverage over the entire
globe between +/-75 degrees in latitude. The inherent latency in
providing the corrections to the user through the geosynchronous
satellites is shown to have little impact on true real-time
positioning. Orbit determination, post-processed but filtered as if
in real-time, of a low-Earth orbiter's GPS data using the real-time
orbit and clock products will be presented. Anticipated plans call
for uploading the code to a space-qualified receiver and performing
orbit determination with the GPS differential global corrections as
transmitted by the Inmarsat beams.

Results of an Internet-Based Dual-Frequency Global Differential GPS System
R. J. Muellerschoen, W. I. Bertiger and M. F. Lough
Observables from a global network of 18 GPS receivers are returned in
real-time to JPL over the open Internet. Global GPS orbits accurate to
30-40 cms RSS and precise dual-frequency GPS clocks are computed in
real-time with JPL's Real-Time Gipsy (RTG) software. Corrections to
the broadcast orbits and clocks are communicated to the user over the
open Internet via a TCP server. Tests of user positioning show real-time
RMS accuracy of 8 cms RMS in horizontal and 20 cms RMS in the vertical.

An Internet-Based Global Differential GPS System, Initial Results
R. J. Muellerschoen, W. I. Bertiger, M. F. Lough, D. Stowers, D. Dong
Using a network of 15 global GPS receivers, GPS data is returning to JPL via the
open Internet to determine the orbits and clocks of the GPS constellation in
real-time. Corrections to the broadcast orbits and clocks are currently
communicated in real-time to the user over the open Internet via a TCP server.
Tests of user positioning show real-time RMS accuracy of ~10 cms RMS in horizontal
and < 20 cms RMS in the vertical.

THE EVOLUTION OF THE GDGPS SYSTEM:
-
GipsyX/RTGx, a new tool set for space geodetic operations and research
-
RTGx is the next generation GDGPS orbit determination and positioning software
RTGx is based on the navigation software for the Next Generation GPS Operational Control Segment (OCX) developed by JPL for the U.S. Air Force. Built to the exacting standards of the OCX Project, RTGx represents a significant improvement over RTG in quality and performance. This article, presented at the 2012 ION GNSS Meeting in Nashville, TN, describes the innovative design features of the software and its key quality attributes. RTGx will replace RTG as the GDGPS core orbit determination and positioning software in early 2013.

Flight Tests Demonstrate Sub 50 cms RMS Vertical WADGPS Positioning
Wide Area Differential GPS (WADGPS) positioning is performed in real-time during NASA's DC-8 AirSAR flights.
R. J. Muellerschoen, W. I. Bertiger and M. L. Whitehead
The goal of the experiment is to demonstrate absolute positioning in earth-fixed coordinates to better
than one meter in all components in real-time. Results show dual-frequency real-time RMS (root-mean-square)
accuracy in the vertical to be 50-60 cms with an RMS horizontal accuracy of better than 40 cms.
