TOPEX/POSEIDON operational orbit determination results using global positioning satellites

Results of operational orbit determination, performed as part of the TOPEX/POSEIDON (T/P) Global Positioning System (GPS) demonstration experiment, are presented in this article. Elements of this experiment include the GPS satellite constellation, the GPS demonstration receiver on board T/P, six ground GPS receivers, the GPS Data Handling Facility, and the GPS Data Processing Facility (GDPF). Carrier phase and P-code pseudorange measurements from up to 24 GPS satellites to the seven GPS receivers are processed simultaneously with the GDPF software MIRAGE to produce orbit solutions of T/P and the GPS satellites. Daily solutions yield subdecimeter radial accuracies compared to other GPS, LASER, and DORIS precision orbit solutions.

TOPEX/POSEIDON GPS Demonstration Experiment Data

Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) measurements obtained from the on-board TOPEX/POSEIDON demonstration flight receiver and a global network of ground receivers are available from the GPS Data Handling Facility (GDHF) archive. Ground receiver observations are derived from a six station subset of the GPS global tracking network. The six TOPEX ground stations yielded 95 percent of the expected data during the six month demonstration phase from November, 1992 to April, 1993. For the same period, 98 percent of the available P-code tracking from the TOPEX flight receiver was obtained. Raw carrier phase and P-code pseudorange measurements are provided for the ground and flight receivers along with an additional file of calibrated and compressed flight receiver data...
