Abstract:
Objectives In order to effectively extract useful information from time series of the global navigation satellite system(GNSS) sites, and improve the modeling accuracy of coordinate time series, this paper proposes a nonlinear motion modeling method combining wavelet decomposition and singular spectrum analysis. Experiments were carried out using global positioning system(GPS) vertical coordinate time series of 11 stations around the world from 1999 to 2018.
Methods Firstly, the coordinate time series is decomposed into different scales by wavelet decomposition.And then the singular spectrum analysis(SSA) is performed on the high-frequency part and the low-frequency part of each layer. Finally, combine the fitting value that is the fitting coordinate time series, and the fitting effect of the new method was evaluated.
Results The results show that, compared with the simple singular spectrum analysis method, the new method can extract useful information such as trend and period more accurately from the limited scale of the time series with noise. And reduce the partial period items in the singular spectrum analysis method to some extent, for example, the seasonal period item and the monthly period item are regarded as the probability of noise rejection, and the modeling accuracy is improved by 26%.
Conclusions The purpose is to propose a nonlinear motion modeling method based on wavelet decomposition and singular spectrum analysis, so as to improve the modeling accuracy of coordinate time series.
