长距离北斗参考站网的非差格网化VRS生成方法

Undifferenced Grid VRS Generation Method of Long-Range BDS Reference Station Network

  • 摘要: RTK(Real-Time Kinematic,RTK)作为高精度实时动态定位的主要手段之一,得到了广泛应用,但随着基线长度的增加,定位性能将逐渐降低,用户无法完成可靠的高精度定位。为此利用参考站网生成误差改正信息对用户误差进行改正。针对未来海量用户的定位需求,传统的VRS(Virtual Reference Station,VRS)观测值生成时参考站之间的相关性无法去除,个别参考站数据中断将导致VRS无法连续生成。为此提出了基于非差误差改正数的格网化VRS生成方法。不同于一般的直接估计双差整周模糊度生成误差改正数,在此基础上,通过设置全网的参考站和参考卫星的基准整周模糊度,实现全网一致性的非差整周模糊度估计,以及全网一致性的非差误差改正数生成。误差改正数之间突破了VRS观测值生成时改正数在测站和卫星之间的相关性,每个参考站上的每颗卫星的非差改正数都是独立的。因此非差改正数可以逐个站点主动进行播发,同时避免个别参考站误差改正数无法生成导致的VRS失败的问题。最后通过实验表明在实际应用中,某个参考站误差改正数无法持续生成,生成VRS时可进行不同参考站网的切换,非差格网化算法既能保证参考站网切换时生成的VRS大气误差的连续性,也能保证定位结果的连续性,实现厘米级的高精度增强定位。

     

    Abstract: Objectives: Aiming at the positioning requirements of vast users in the future, the correlation between the reference stations cannot be removed when the traditional VRS observations are generated, and the interruption of individual reference station data will cause VRS to be unable to be continuously generated. With the increase in the distance between a reference station and a user station, the residual of the spatial correlation error reduces the efficiency of the integer ambiguity resolution and positioning accuracy of the user station. Methods: The undifference VRS algorithm addresses the problem of correlation of the correction values between the station and the satellite. The undifference correction values of each satellite on the reference stations are independent. When the VRS is generated, an optimal reference station subnet can be selected according to the current demand, thus avoiding user ambiguity reconvergence caused by the data interruption of individual reference stations. On the basis of the fixed double-difference integer ambiguity, the reference station of the whole network and the reference satellite's reference integer ambiguity are set to realize the undifference integer ambiguity estimation of the whole network consistency, so as to realize the generation of the undifference error correction value of the whole network consistency. Results: The positioning performance of the undifference VRS algorithm was verified experimentally, four reference stations were selected for the generation of VRS observations, and two small networks were formed in the form of triangulation to fix undifference integer ambiguity, and the spacing of gridded VRS stations was set to 10 km. A virtual reference station R1 was selected to test the undifference VRS algorithm. User stations U1, U2 and U3 were near virtual reference station R1. The generated observations of virtual reference station R1 were used for differential positioning, and the positioning results of users when one of the references could not operate properly were analyzed. 24h of data were used for experiments. The observations of the first 12 hours of R1 were generated by reference station network ABC. When reference station B could not operate normally, the observations of the last 12 hours of R1 were generated by reference station network ACD to test the continuity of observations and user positioning results of the R1. Conclusions: The experimental results indicate that the proposed undifference VRS algorithm can guarantee the continuity of the atmospheric error of the VRS generated during the switching of the reference station network. In adouble-differenceition, the proposed algorithm can also ensure the continuity of the positioning results and achieve centimeter-level high-precision positioning.
