Ionospheric specification algorithms for precise GPS-based aircraft navigation

We present a technique for converting real-time total electron content (TEC) measurements into gridded vertical delay corrections at the GPS L***sub***1 frequency, which will be broadcast to users every 5 min via geosynchronous satellite. Users will convert these delays to slant corrections for their own particular lines of sight to GPS satellites. To preserve user safety, estimates of the error in the user delay corrections will also be broadcast.

Assessment of Global TEC Mapping Using a Three-Dimensional Electron Density Model

Dual-frequency transmissions from the Global Positioning System satellites can be used to measure and map ionospheric total electron content (TEC) on global scales. Using data exclusively from ground-based GPS networks, global ionosphere mapping has been successfully applied using either two or three dimensional techniques.

GPS Data Analysis for Earth Orientation at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory

Beginning June 1992 and continuing indefinitely as part of our contribution to FLINN (Fiducial Laboratories for an International Natural Science Network), DOSE (NASA's Dynamics of the Solid Earth Program), and the IGS (International GPS Geodynamics Service), analysts at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) have routinely been reducing data from a globally-distributed network of Rogue Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers.

GPS Global Tracking Network Operations At JPL During the 1992 IGS Experiment and Beyond

The GPS Network Operations center at JPL Provides resources for the collection, distribution and maintenance of GPS data from global network of GPS receivers. This includes the ability to remotely diagnosis receiver problems, communicate with receivers and operators of receivers, to automatically collect, process and distribute data for 14 stations in the IGS network. This amounts to 35 megabytes of raw, finished data and products daily.

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...
