Abstract
High-precision DCBs are essential for effective multi-frequency and multi-constellation GNSS integration, especially in processing compatible signal observations. This study utilizes data from MGEX, iGMAS, and CORS stations to estimate and analyze long time series of BDS/GNSS DCBs, focusing on stability and influencing factors. Results indicate that DCBs for the same signal, but different channels exhibit similar ranges and trends. Among BDS DCBs, those from satellites with rubidium atomic clocks are more stable than those with hydrogen atomic clocks. An upgrade and maintenance of BDS in late 2022, reported by NABU, likely contributed to DCB jumps. BDS-compatible signal DCBs show weaker stability compared to GPS and Galileo. Variations in GNSS signal processing and receiver algorithms also impact DCB stability. Converting DCBs to OSBs and performing RMS statistics revealed that smaller differences between signals increase the susceptibility of observation equations to observation quality.
