Up to now, state-of-the-art empirical slant delay modeling for processing observations from radio space geodetic techniques has been provided by a combination of two models. These are GPT (Global Pressure and Temperature) GMF Mapping Function), both operating on the basis long-term averages surface values numerical weather Weaknesses in GPT/GMF, specifically their limited spatial temporal variability, largely eradicated new, combined model GPT2, which provides pressure, temperature, lapse...

The rapid development of multi-Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs, e.g., BeiDou, Galileo, GLONASS, and GPS) the International GNSS Service (IGS) Multi-GNSS Experiment (MGEX) brings great opportunities challenges for real-time determination tropospheric zenith total delays (ZTDs) integrated water vapor (IWV) to improve numerical weather prediction, particularly nowcasting or severe event monitoring. In this paper, we develop a multi-GNSS model fully exploit potential observations from...

A new realization of the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF) is presented based on work achieved by a working group Astronomical Union (IAU) mandated for this purpose. This follows initial ICRF completed in 1997 and its successor, ICRF2, adopted as replacement 2009. The frame, referred to ICRF3, nearly 40 years data acquired very long baseline interferometry at standard geodetic astrometric radio frequencies (8.4 2.3 GHz), supplemented with collected higher (24 GHz dual-frequency...

Global positioning system (GPS) tropospheric tomography normally requires that the slant wet delays between GPS satellites and ground receivers are estimated with high accuracy, which may be difficult given presence of a number error sources. This paper presents an alternative approach, namely to estimate three-dimensional structure atmospheric water vapor directly from raw phase observations. The method is tested in simulations, where impact network size, possible horizontal vertical...

Abstract In this study, we estimate integrated water vapor (IWV) trends from very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) and global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) data analysis, as well numerical weather models (NWMs). We study the impact of modeling parameterization tropospheric delay VLBI on IWV trends. address meteorological source utilized to model hydrostatic thermal deformation antennas, mapping functions employed project zenith delays arbitrary directions. To do so, derive a new...

In this paper, we demonstrate the advantage of applying a Kalman filter for parameter estimation in very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) data analysis. We present implementation VLBI software VieVS@GFZ. The performance is then investigated by looking at accuracy obtained various parameters, like baseline lengths, Earth Orientation Parameters, radio source coordinates, and tropospheric delays. results are compared to those when classical least squares method (LSM) applied estimation,...
