Abstract
Precise point positioning (PPP) is one of the seven planning public services of the new generation global Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), i.e. BDS-3. Up to now, the PPP service signal has already been broadcast through I channel of PPP-B2b to support decimeter level positioning within 30 min for users over China and the surrounding areas for free. Concerning the potential application of PPP real-time kinematic (PPP-RTK) in the BDS positioning service development, this paper carried out analysis and experiment of the design and evaluation of PPP-RTK through Q channel based on the existing PPP-B2b I channel signal. First, we presented the algorithm of PPP-RTK based on the undifferenced and uncombined model. Then, the format and broadcast strategy of phase delay and atmospheric delay products were discussed in detail. Finally, based on the simulation data, we analyzed the performance of PPP-RTK with different broadcast bandwidths. The results suggested that the positioning accuracy of GPS + BDS + Galileo PPP-RTK under 95% quantile were 2.3 cm and 3.3 cm in horizontal and vertical, respectively. In order to evaluate the BDS PPP-RTK service, we set the convergence thresholds as 6 cm in horizontal and 12 cm in vertical, which is given by Centimeter Level Augmentation Service of Japanese Quasi-Zenith Satellite System, and the time to converge to such thresholds were 0.5 min and 1.0 min in horizontal and vertical, respectively. Finally, the experiment considering ‘correction latency’ suggested that there was only a litter effect on the convergence speed, the positioning accuracy after convergence is roughly the same.
