It has also paved the way for a wide range of research into the evaluation of their performance and reliability, their potential use in different fields, the improvement of performance and combined systems, etc. Single-frequency GNSS receivers, which for a long time remained the only category of low-cost GNSS receivers, often limited by their level of accuracy (metric) mainly due to their single-frequency nature, have been joined in the last decade by dual-frequency GNSS receivers developed by certain manufacturers of positioning equipment. These receivers now offer possible alternatives to the relatively expensive conventional (topographic quality) or geodetic receivers and. In this study, the performance of these low-cost dual-frequency receivers was evaluated in static and real-time kinematic GNSS positioning modes. Static positioning was carried out on three points with sessions of 2 h and 4 h over three days with antenna swapping (CHC i50, Leica GS14 and Emlid Reach RS2+). Real-time observations were carried out on eleven (11) points in open, poorly open and not at all open environments, in order to assess not only performance but also receiver sensitivity in environments with a high risk of multipath. The results obtained showed an average agreement of 2 cm in planimetry between the low-cost Emlid RS2+ receiver and the Leica GS14 and CHC i50 receivers. The differences in altimetry are nevertheless greater (sometimes up to decimetres for certain points). Real-time positioning results provided an average convergence of around 1 cm on the E, N and H components with the results from the low-cost Emlid Reach RS2+ and Ublox ZED-F9P receivers and the CHC i50 receiver. Analysis of the results obtained has enabled us to highlight the various issues and challenges associated with this new generation of GNSS receivers, with a view to enhancing their appropriation and optimal integration in the professional and research worlds.展开更多

Using the single- epoch precise point positioning （PPP） method and the appropriate positioning flow, we process GPS data from six IGS （International GNSS Service） sites （e.g., MIZU, TSK2, USUD, MTKA, AIRA and KSMV） located in Japan and obtain the positioning results with centimeter scale precision. The displacement time series of the six sites are analyzed using the least squares spectral analysis method to estimate deformations caused by the Mw9.0 mainshock and the Mw7.9 aftershock, and the cumulative displacements after 1 day. Mainshock displacements at station MIZU, the nearest site to the mainshock in the North （N）, East （E）, and Up （U） directions, are -1.202 m, 2.180 m and -0.104 m, respectively, and the cumulative deformations after 1 day are -1.117 m, 2.071 m and -0.072 m, respectively. The displacements at station KSMV, the nearest site to the Mw7.9 aftershock in the N, E and U directions, are -0.032 m, 0.742 m and -0.345 m, respectively. The other sites obviously experienced eastern movements and subsidence. The deformation vectors indicate that the horizontal displacements caused by the earthquake point to the epicenter and rupture. Elastic bounds evidently took place at all sites. The results indicate that the crustal movements and earthquake were part of a megathrust caused by the Pacific Plate sinking under the North American Plate to the northeast of Japan island arc.展开更多

The system time difference between GPS and GLONASS （STDGG） and zenith tropospheric delay （ZTD） values were firstly estimated in an open sky condition using the traditional GG-PPP algorithm. Then, they were used as a priori known values in the modified algorithm instead of estimating them as unknowns. The proposed algorithm was tested using observations collected at BJFS station in a simulated open-pit mine environment. The results show that the position filter converges much faster to a stable value in all three coordinate components using the modified algorithm than using the traditional algorithm. The modified algorithm achieves higher positioning accuracy as well. The accuracy improvement in the horizontal direction and vertical direction reaches 69% and 95% at a satellite elevation mask angle of 50°, respectively.展开更多

In this paper, we derive the transient nonlinear dynamicresponse equations of high-acceleration mechanisms, which reveal that stiffness, frequency, damping, and driving frequency are the primary factors. Therefore, we propose a new structural optimization and velocity-planning method for the precision positioning of a high-acceleration mechanism based on optimal spatial and temporal distribution of inertial energy. For structural optimization, we first reviewed the commonly flexible multibody dynamic optimization using equivalent static loads method （ESLM）, and then we selected the modified ESLM for optimal spatial distribution of inertial energy; hence, not only the stiffness but also the inertia and frequency of the real modal shapes are considered. For velocity planning, we developed a new velocity-planning method based on nonlinear dynamic-response optimization with varying motion conditions. Our method was verified on a high-acceleration die bonder. The amplitude of residual vibration could be decreased by more than 20% via structural optimization and the positioning time could be reduced by more than 40% via asymmetric variable velocity planning. This method provides an effective theoretical support for the precision positioning of high-acceleration low-load mechanisms.展开更多

文摘Zenith Tropospheric Delay(ZTD)is an important factor that restricts the high-precision positioning of global navigation satellite system(GNSS),and it is of great significance in establishing a real-time and highprecision ZTD model.However,existing ZTD models only consider the impact of linear terms on ZTD estimation,whereas the nonlinear factors have rarely been investigated before and thus become the focus of this study.A real-time and high-precision ZTD model for large height difference area is proposed by considering the linear and nonlinear characteristics of ZTD spatiotemporal variations and is called the realtime linear and nonlinearity ZTD(RLNZ)model.This model uses the ZTD estimated from the Global Pressure and Temperature 3(GPT3)model as the initial value.The linear impacts of periodic term and height on the estimation of ZTD difference between GNSS and GPT3 model are first considered.In addition,nonlinear factors such as geographical location and time are further used to fit the remaining nonlinear ZTD residuals using the general regression neural network method.Finally,the RLNZ-derived ZTD is obtained at an arbitrary location.The western United States,with height difference ranging from-500 to 4000 m,is selected,and the hourly ZTD of 484 GNSS stations provided by the Nevada Geodetic Laboratory(NGL)and the data of 9 radiosonde(RS)stations in the year 2021 are used.Experiment results show that a better performance of ZTD estimation can be retrieved from the proposed RLNZ model when compared with the GPT3 model.Statistical results show the averaged root mean square(RMS),Bias,and mean absolute error(MAE)of ZTD from GPT3 and RLNZ models are 33.7/0.8/25.7 mm and 22.6/0.1/17.4 mm,respectively.The average improvement rate of the RLNZ model is 33% when compared to the GPT3 model.Finally,the application of the proposed RLNZ model in simulated real-time Precise Point Positioning(PPP)indicates that the accuracy of PPP in N,E and U components is improved by 8%,2%,and 6% when compared with that from the GPT3-based PPP.Meanwhile,the convergence time in N and U components is improved by 23% and 7%,respectively.Such results verify the superiority of the proposed RLNZ model in retrieving realtime ZTD maps for GNSS positioning and navigation applications.

文摘The application of Low Earth Orbit(LEO)satellite navigation can enhance geometric structure,increase observations and contribute to navigation and positioning.To improve the performance of the navigation constellation in China,this study proposes an optimized method of LEO-enhanced navigation constellation for BDS based on Bayesian optimization algorithm.In this paper,four different optimal LEO constellation configurations are designed,and their enhancements to BDS3 navigation performance are analyzed,including Geometric Dilution of Precision(GDOP),the numbers of visible satellites,and the rapid convergence of precision point positioning(PPP).Additionally,the enhancement advantages in China compared to other regions are further discussed.The results demonstrate that regional enhanced constellations with 70,72,80,and 81 satellites at an altitude of 1000 km can significantly improve the navigation performance of the navigation constellation.Globally,the addition of optimized LEO constellations has reduced the hybrid constellation GDOP by 19.0%,18.3%,19.9%,and 20.3%.Similar results can be obtained using the genetic algorithm(GA),but the computational efficiency of Bayesian optimization algorithm is 53.9%higher than that of the genetic algorithm.The number of visible satellites of enhanced constellations in China has increased by more than four on average,which is better than that in other regions.In the PPP experiment,the convergence time of the stations in China and other regions is shortened by 83.0%and 76.2%,respectively,and the navigation performance of hybrid constellations in China is better.

文摘An integrity monitoring framework is proposed to ensure the quality of the real-time Precise Point Positioning(PPP)correction data at the service end.The key contributions are designing quantitative metrics to characterize the integrity status of the precise Orbit,Clock(OC)and Code Bias(OCB)corrections,and deriving the corresponding algorithms to detect and exclude anomalies,and to evaluate the real-time accuracy levels of the OCB.Compared to many prior works whose interests focused on analyzing and improving the averaged long-term accuracy,this work is established from integrity perspective.In particular,a two-layer fault detection and identification approach is developed to reduce the miss detection and false alert probabilities.The test statistics are constructed based on the raw observations from a network of worldwide sparsely distributed monitor stations.In addition,a realistic data-driven model is established to compute the Quality Indicators(QI)for healthy OCB products.The proposed scheme is validated respectively for multi-constellation OC and code bias,using historical correction data.The results suggest that the detection algorithms can effectively identify and alert the faults,so that the remaining correction errors approximate well to Gaussian distributions.Moreover,the computed QI are shown to be consistent with the truth error variations in real time.Most importantly,the position domain verification shows noticeable positioning accuracy and robustness improvements under both nominal and faulty conditions of the OCB correction data.
文摘Aberration-corrected focus scanning is crucial for high-precision optics,but the conventional optical systems rely on bulky and complicated dynamic correctors.Recently,Shiyi Xiao's group proposed a method using two rotating cascaded transmissive metasurfaces for adaptive aberration correction in focus scanning.The optimized phase profiles enable precise control of the focal position for scanning custom-curved surfaces.This concept was experimentally validated by two allsilicon meta-devices in the terahertz regime,paving the way for high-precision and compact optical devices in various applications.

文摘Precise coseismic displacements in earthquake/tsunamic early warning are necessary to characterize earthquakes in real time in order to enable decision-makers to issue alerts for public safety.Real-time global navigation satellite systems(GNSSs)have been a valuable tool in monitoring seismic motions,allowing permanent displacement computation to be unambiguously achieved.As a valuable tool presented to the seismic commu nity,the GSeisRT software developed by Wuhan University(China)can realize multi-GNSS precise point positioning with ambiguity resolution(PPP-AR)and achieve centimeterlevel to sub-centimeter-level precision in real time.While the stable maintenance of a global precise point positioning(PPP)service is challenging,this software is capable of estimating satellite clocks and phase biases in real time using a regional GNSS network.This capability makes GSeisRT especially suitable for proprietary GNSS networks and,more importantly,the highest possible positio ning precision and reliability can be obtained.According to real-time results from the Network of the Americas,the mean root mean square(RMS)errors of kinematic PPP-AR over a 24 h span are as low as 1.2,1.3,and 3.0 cm in the east,north,and up components,respectively.Within the few minutes that span a typical seismic event,a horizontal displacement precision of 4 mm can be achieved.The positioning precision of the GSeisRT regional PPP/PPP-AR is 30%-40%higher than that of the global PPP/PPP-AR.Since 2019,GSeisRT has successfully recorded the static,dynamic,and peak ground displacements for the 2020Oaxaca,Mexico moment magnitude(Mw)7.4 event;the 2020 Lone Pine,California Mw 5.8 event;and the 2021 Qinghai,China Mw 7.3 event in real time.The resulting immediate magnitude estimates have an error of around 0.1 only.The GSeisRT software is open to the scientific community and has been applied by the China Earthquake Ne tworks Center,the EarthScope Consortium of the United States,the National Seismological Center of Chile,Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences Limited(GNS Science Te PūAo)of New Zealand,and the Geospatial Information Agency of Indonesia.

文摘The mathematical method of ZTD(zenith tropospheric delay)spatial prediction is important for precise ZTD derivation and real-time precise point positioning(PPP)augmentation.This paper analyses the performance of the popular optimal function coefficient(OFC),sphere cap harmonic analysis(SCHA),kriging and inverse distance weighting(IDW)interpolation in ZTD spatial prediction and Beidou satellite navigation system(BDS)-PPP augmentation over China.For ZTD spatial prediction,the average time consumption of the OFC,kriging,and IDW methods is less than 0.1 s,which is significantly better than that of the SCHA method(63.157 s).The overall ZTD precision of the OFC is 3.44 cm,which outperforms those of the SCHA(9.65 cm),Kriging(10.6 cm),and IDW(11.8 cm)methods.We confirmed that the low performance of kriging and IDW is caused by their weakness in modelling ZTD variation in the vertical direction.To mitigate such deficiencies,an elevation normalization factor(ENF)is introduced into the kriging and IDW models(kriging-ENF and IDW-ENF).The overall ZTD spatial prediction accuracies of IDW-ENF and kriging-ENF are 2.80 cm and 2.01 cm,respectively,which are both superior to those of the OFC and the widely used empirical model GPT3(4.92 cm).For BDS-PPP enhancement,the ZTD provided by the kriging-ENF,IDW-ENF and OFC as prior constraints can effectively reduce the convergence time.Compared with unconstrained BDS-PPP,our proposed kriging-ENF outperforms IDW-ENF and OFC by reducing the horizontal and vertical convergence times by approximately 13.2%and 5.8%in Ningxia and 30.4%and 7.84%in Guangdong,respectively.These results indicate that kriging-ENF is a promising method for ZTD spatial prediction and BDS-PPP enhancement over China.
文摘The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is widely utilized for accurate positioning.One commonly applied method to obtain precise coordinate estimates is by implementing the relative positioning in network mode.However,this approach can be complex and challenging.Fortunately,The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) offers freely available satellite orbit and clock correction products called Multi-GNSS Advanced Demonstration Tool for Orbit and Clock Analysis (MADOCA),which can enhance positioning accuracy through the precise point positioning (PPP) method.This study focuses on evaluating PPP static mode positioning using MADOCA products and comparing the results with the highly precise relative positioning method.By analyzing a network of 20 GNSS stations in Indonesia,we found that the PPP method using MADOCA products provided favorable positioning estimates.The median discrepancies and the corresponding median absolute deviation (MAD) for easting,northing,and up components were estimated as 9±18 mm,10±9 mm,and 3±40 mm,respectively.These results indicate that PPP with MADOCA products can be a reliable alternative for establishing Indonesia's horizontal control networks,particularly for orders 0,1,2,and 3,and for a broad spectrum of geoscience monitoring activities.However,considerations such as epoch transformations and seismic activities should be taken into account for accurate positioning applications that comply with the definition of the national reference framework.

文摘BeiDou navigation satellite system with global coverage(BDS-3)has been fully operational since July 2020,currently providing the positioning,navigation and timing service together with regional BDS-2.In addition to the legacy signals of B1I and B3I,the BDS-3 also transmits several new signals such as BIC,B2a and B2b,which brings new opportunities for rapid ambiguity resolution(AR)of BDS precise point positioning(PPP).In this contribution,a multi-frequency(MF)rapid PPP-AR method with regional network augmentation was proposed.Firstly,BDS five-frequency observations were introduced into uncombined double-differenced models to retrieve regional augmentation corrections at the server.Thereafter,a cascade PPP-AR strategy using extra-wide-lane,wide-lane and narrow-lane ambiguity was employed at the user.Once ambiguities were fixed to integers,the phase correction accuracy could reach about 3 cm on average overall BDS frequencies in the network with inter-station distances of 100-200 km.Subsequently,the statistical results of seven-day simulated kinematic experiments showed that over 99% of epochs on average realized PPP-AR.Correspondingly,the positioning accuracy of the MF fixed solution reached 1.8,1.9,4.7 cm in the east,north and up components,respectively,improving by 5-15% compared with the dual-frequency scheme.Moreover,several vehicle-borne experiments under different urban scenarios were also conducted.Under an open-sky or a relatively open highway scene,the BDS-MF scheme similarly exhibited good performance,and over 98% of epochs achieved rapid PPP-AR with a positioning accuracy better than 3 cm.More encouragingly,for this BDS-challenged experiment with an average satellite number of 8.6,although only 72.06% of epochs were available due to serious signal blockages caused by overpass,tunnels or tall buildings,the horizontal positioning accuracy could still remain 7 cm on average.

文摘The recruitment of the Low Earth Orbit(LEO)constellation is recognized as an effective way to augment Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS)Precise Point Positioning(PPP)in the near future.Its potential to accelerate PPP convergence has been proved with simulated data.However,the mechanism of how the geometric change of LEO accelerates the convergence of GNSS PPP has not been studied from a theoretical perspective,which hampers the understanding and exploitation of the enhancement of LEO.In this article,the convergence mechanism of LEO enhanced GNSS PPP is investigated in terms of theoretical analysis and simulated verification.To show the characteristics of the ambiguities during convergence,eigenvalue decomposition is used to divide the ambiguities into orthogonal components,named geometric-related component,clock-error-related component,and independent component.The results show that the precision of geometric-related components of ambiguities,which correlates with position parameters,is low at a single epoch,while the precision can be greatly improved with the fast geometric change of LEO.On the other hand,the precision of clock-error-related components of ambiguities,which correlates with clock errors,cannot be improved by fast geometric change of LEO constellation due to its irrelevance to geometry,which causes the precision of each ambiguity to be low.Further investigations show that single-differenced ambiguities could overcome this drawback and are beneficial to ambiguity resolution.
文摘The development of this technology has favored the advances noted in recent years in the field of precise positioning. It has also paved the way for a wide range of research into the evaluation of their performance and reliability, their potential use in different fields, the improvement of performance and combined systems, etc. Single-frequency GNSS receivers, which for a long time remained the only category of low-cost GNSS receivers, often limited by their level of accuracy (metric) mainly due to their single-frequency nature, have been joined in the last decade by dual-frequency GNSS receivers developed by certain manufacturers of positioning equipment. These receivers now offer possible alternatives to the relatively expensive conventional (topographic quality) or geodetic receivers and. In this study, the performance of these low-cost dual-frequency receivers was evaluated in static and real-time kinematic GNSS positioning modes. Static positioning was carried out on three points with sessions of 2 h and 4 h over three days with antenna swapping (CHC i50, Leica GS14 and Emlid Reach RS2+). Real-time observations were carried out on eleven (11) points in open, poorly open and not at all open environments, in order to assess not only performance but also receiver sensitivity in environments with a high risk of multipath. The results obtained showed an average agreement of 2 cm in planimetry between the low-cost Emlid RS2+ receiver and the Leica GS14 and CHC i50 receivers. The differences in altimetry are nevertheless greater (sometimes up to decimetres for certain points). Real-time positioning results provided an average convergence of around 1 cm on the E, N and H components with the results from the low-cost Emlid Reach RS2+ and Ublox ZED-F9P receivers and the CHC i50 receiver. Analysis of the results obtained has enabled us to highlight the various issues and challenges associated with this new generation of GNSS receivers, with a view to enhancing their appropriation and optimal integration in the professional and research worlds.

文摘Crustal deformation can provide constraints for studying earthquake rupture and shock wave transmission for the Mw9.0 eastern Japan great earthquake. Using the single- epoch precise point positioning （PPP） method and the appropriate positioning flow, we process GPS data from six IGS （International GNSS Service） sites （e.g., MIZU, TSK2, USUD, MTKA, AIRA and KSMV） located in Japan and obtain the positioning results with centimeter scale precision. The displacement time series of the six sites are analyzed using the least squares spectral analysis method to estimate deformations caused by the Mw9.0 mainshock and the Mw7.9 aftershock, and the cumulative displacements after 1 day. Mainshock displacements at station MIZU, the nearest site to the mainshock in the North （N）, East （E）, and Up （U） directions, are -1.202 m, 2.180 m and -0.104 m, respectively, and the cumulative deformations after 1 day are -1.117 m, 2.071 m and -0.072 m, respectively. The displacements at station KSMV, the nearest site to the Mw7.9 aftershock in the N, E and U directions, are -0.032 m, 0.742 m and -0.345 m, respectively. The other sites obviously experienced eastern movements and subsidence. The deformation vectors indicate that the horizontal displacements caused by the earthquake point to the epicenter and rupture. Elastic bounds evidently took place at all sites. The results indicate that the crustal movements and earthquake were part of a megathrust caused by the Pacific Plate sinking under the North American Plate to the northeast of Japan island arc.

文摘A modified algorithm of combined GPS/GLONASS precise point positioning （GG-PPP） was developed by decreasing the number of unknowns to be estimated so that accurate position solutions can be achieved in the case of less number of visible satellites. The system time difference between GPS and GLONASS （STDGG） and zenith tropospheric delay （ZTD） values were firstly estimated in an open sky condition using the traditional GG-PPP algorithm. Then, they were used as a priori known values in the modified algorithm instead of estimating them as unknowns. The proposed algorithm was tested using observations collected at BJFS station in a simulated open-pit mine environment. The results show that the position filter converges much faster to a stable value in all three coordinate components using the modified algorithm than using the traditional algorithm. The modified algorithm achieves higher positioning accuracy as well. The accuracy improvement in the horizontal direction and vertical direction reaches 69% and 95% at a satellite elevation mask angle of 50°, respectively.

文摘With the completion of Chinese BeiDou Navigation Satellite System(BDS),the world has begun to enjoy the Positioning,Navigation,and Timing(PNT)services of four Global Navigation Satellite Systems(GNSS).In order to improve the GNSS performance and expand its applications,Low Earth Orbit(LEO)Enhanced Global Navigation Satellite System(LeGNSS)is being vigorously advocated.Combined with high-,medium-,and low-earth orbit satellites,it can improve GNSS performance in terms of orbit determination,Precise Point Positioning(PPP)convergence time,etc.This paper comprehensively reviews the current status of LeGNSS,focusing on analyzing its advantages and challenges for precise orbit and clock determination,PPP convergence,earth rotation parameter estimation,and global ionosphere modeling.Thanks to the fast geometric change brought by LEO satellites,LeGNSS is expected to fundamentally solve the problem of the long convergence time of PPP without any augmentation.The convergence time can be shortened within 1 minute if appropriate LEO constellations are deployed.However,there are still some issues to overcome,such as the optimization of LEO constellation as well as the real time LEO precise orbit and clock determination.

文摘With ongoing economic,scientific,and technological developments,the electronic devices used in daily lives are developing toward precision and miniaturization,and so the demand for high-precision manufacturing machinery is expanding.The most important piece of equipment in modern high-precision manufacturing is the macro-micro motion platform(M3P),which offers high speed,precision,and efficiency and has macro-micro motion coupling characteristics due to its mechanical design and composition of its driving components.Therefore,the design of the control system is crucial for the overall precision of the platform;conventional proportional–integral–derivative control cannot meet the system requirements,and so M3Ps are the subject of a growing range of modern control strategies.This paper begins by describing the development history of M3Ps,followed by their platform structure and motion control system components,and then in-depth assessments of the macro,micro,and macro-micro control systems.In addition to examining the advantages and disadvantages of current macro-micro motion control,recent technological breakthroughs are noted.Finally,based on existing problems,future directions for M3P control systems are given,and the present conclusions offer guidelines for future work on M3Ps.

文摘High-speed and precision positioning are fundamental requirements for high-acceleration low-load mechanisms in integrated circuit （IC） packaging equipment. In this paper, we derive the transient nonlinear dynamicresponse equations of high-acceleration mechanisms, which reveal that stiffness, frequency, damping, and driving frequency are the primary factors. Therefore, we propose a new structural optimization and velocity-planning method for the precision positioning of a high-acceleration mechanism based on optimal spatial and temporal distribution of inertial energy. For structural optimization, we first reviewed the commonly flexible multibody dynamic optimization using equivalent static loads method （ESLM）, and then we selected the modified ESLM for optimal spatial distribution of inertial energy; hence, not only the stiffness but also the inertia and frequency of the real modal shapes are considered. For velocity planning, we developed a new velocity-planning method based on nonlinear dynamic-response optimization with varying motion conditions. Our method was verified on a high-acceleration die bonder. The amplitude of residual vibration could be decreased by more than 20% via structural optimization and the positioning time could be reduced by more than 40% via asymmetric variable velocity planning. This method provides an effective theoretical support for the precision positioning of high-acceleration low-load mechanisms.
