1 Measurement Error and Fault Models for Multi-Constellation Navigation Systems Mathieu Joerger Illinois Institute of Technology Colloquium on Satellite Navigation at TU München May 16,
2 Multi-Constellation Navigation System In this research, we explore the potential of multi-constellation navigation systems to achieve high-integrity, precision positioning over wide areas. GPS, Galileo and Iridium Orbits Signals from GPS and Galileo are combined with ranging measurements from Iridium low-earth-orbiting (LEO) telecommunication satellite. GPS Galileo Iridium 2
3 Geometric diversity Motivation for LEO Augmentation large angular variations of line-of-sight (LOS) for Iridium fast floating cycle ambiguity estimation Satellite redundancy guaranteed with GPS/Galileo/Iridium fault detection using receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM) Measurement errors Azimuth-Elevation Sky Plot (over 10min) W N E eliminated using local differential corrections [Rabinowitz] consider occasional wide-area corrections, together with robust error models, which must be validated over the duration of cycle ambiguity estimation S GPS Iridium 150 Rabinowitz, M. A Differential Carrier-Phase Navigation System Combining GPS with Low Earth Orbit Satellites for Rapid Resolution of Integer Cycle Ambiguities. PhD Thesis. Stanford, CA (2000). 3
4 Conceptual System Design In this research, the system is designed for civilian air and land transportation applications. 1. User segment: Single-frequency Iridium and GPS signal receivers Dual-frequency (DF) GPS/Galileo by 2025 DF Iridium also considered in the analysis 60 N 2. Example ground segment: a network of ground stations similar to WAAS (performance results documented since 2003) aims at computing Iridium clock and orbit information WAAS-like corrections for GPS clock and orbit ephemeris and for iono errors 40 N 140 W 120 W 100 W Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) 80 W 4
5 Conceptual System Design 3. Space segment: models for existing constellations Nominal 24 GPS satellite constellation Nominal 27 Galileo satellite constellation 66 Iridium SVs arranged in 6 orbital planes Near-polar orbits impact the positioning performance. Higher satellite density near the poles Directionality of the satellite motion Iridium Satellite Coverage 5
6 Measurement Error Models To exploit changes in geometry, measurements are filtered over time (over a filtering period T F, lower than 10 min). Therefore, ranging error models must account for absolute error at filter initiation relative error over filtering period T F, and the fact that Iridium satellites cross large sections of the atmosphere within the T F period. Existing measurement error models (e.g., used in WAAS and in the Local Area Augmentation System) are insufficient. Derived new models, as illustrated (next slides) with the model for the ionosphere (similar methods for troposphere and SV orbit and clock ephemeris errors). 6
7 Ionospheric Error Modeling For near-term future single-frequency (SF) implementations, the ionosphere is the largest source of measurement error. In this work, the new models are employed in two distinct ways first, we evaluate the fidelity of the models to DF GPS data then, we use these stochastic models to compute probability bounds on position estimates Limits of measurement error modeling: models must be robust, but not overly-conservative must limit the number of model parameters to avoid unrealistic bounds on the position estimate 7
8 Nominal Ionospheric Error Model Ionospheric pierce point (IPP) intersection of the LOS with thin shell (highest density of e - ) 350km IPP displacement (d IPP ) due to earth, user & SV motion computed in a sun-fixed frame Main assumption vertical ionospheric delay varies linearly with d IPP, in a sun-fixed frame over limited d IPP (piecewise linear model) model used with GPS and LEO, no local ref. station assumption b VI I d IPP IPP c b d g I, k OI, k VI IPP, k VI g VI Instantaneous Over time (d IPP ) d IPP,MAX = 750km d IPP 8
9 Experimental Evaluation Dual-frequency carrier phase GPS data (at f L1 and f L2 ) provide a biased and noisy measurement of the ionospheric delay at the L1 frequency: I, k OI, k VI IPP, k VI f f 2 L2 2 2 L1 fl2 Equivalent Ionospheric Delay on f L1 c b d g b v L1, k L2, k I, k I I, k Unknown bias (differenced cycle ambiguities) vi, k ~ 0, I 2.3cm 2 I Processed GPS data from CORS at seven sites across the United States, from January to August 2007 During a period of low activity in the 11-year-long solar cycle Considered quiet days (91 quiet days) at mid-latitude region 9
10 Preliminary Model Validation Preliminary model evaluation assuming a satellite elevation mask of 50 deg. Fit the ionospheric error model to the data and compute the residual error (due to mis-modeling) over increasing lengths of the fit interval (d IPP,MAX ). 750 km d IPP correspond to: about 30 min of GPS SV motion about 3 min of Iridium SV motion Residual (cm) Fidelity of the Model to the Data vs. d IPP,MAX nominal 750km meas. noise level 1-sigma d (km) IPP,MAX Percentage of occurr. per d IPP,MAX bin

12 Traveling Ionospheric Disturbance (TID) These temporary, localized, moving wave-like structures are in fact TIDs. TIDs have been studied over decades, and have been observed at all latitudes, longitudes, times of day, season, and solar cycle [Hunsucker 1982]. TIDs are generally thought to be caused by the propagation of atmospheric gravity waves through the neutral atmosphere, which in turn perturbs the ionospheric electron density distribution. We anticipate that TIDs will significantly impact the SF carrier phase filtering process, which is sensitive even to low-magnitude error variations (in contrast to other GPS-based implementations). Hunsucker, R. D. (1982), Atmospheric Gravity Waves Generated in the High-Latitude Ionosphere: A Review, Rev. Geophys. and Space Phys., 20, 2,
13 New Ionospheric Error Model TID properties that we observed using CORS data are consistent with values found in the literature wavelength: ~ 300 km amplitude: ~ cm and higher (up to 60 cm [Ding 2008]) We determined that in our 8-month long set of data, about 1% of GPS satellite passes were affected by decimeter-level TIDs. TID parameters are therefore included in the new fault-free error model. sin I, k coi, k bvi dipp, k gvi c OI, k ac cos IdIPP, k as Id IPP, k Nominal model Amplitude of the TID sin and cos terms TID frequency (rad/m) Ding, F., W.

14 Example Experimental Result (2) The new non-linear model is fit to the data using an iterative Newton-Raphson process residual errors (after removing the model from the data) are lower than with the nominal model TIDs with non-sinusoidal profiles still cause large residual errors PRN 20 on 01/08/2007 at 10:14am local time in Cleveland, Ohio PRN 10 on 02/10/2007 at 10:54am local time in Holland, Michigan Detrended Delay (m) Nominal Model New Model Detrended Delay (m) Nominal Model New Model d IPP (km) d IPP (km) 14

16 Summary of Ionospheric Error Modeling Nominal Model New Model Measurement Noise Sigma over-bound 8.2 cm 5.7 cm 2.3 cm Max residual error 40 cm 27 cm The new model brings about some improvement, but substantial residual mis-modeling errors remain. It is extremely challenging to capture the wide variety of TID profiles through simple modeling. In the next slides, a different approach to evaluate the impact of TIDs on the positioning performance is established (using a position estimate error bounding analysis). 16

19 Nominal VPL Equation For integrity analysis under fault-free conditions, protection levels are computed; focus is on vertical protection level VPL because of usually worst position estimation performance in vertical direction.

31 Worst-Case Dual-Frequency Performance Evaluation Worst-case performance is established for a nominal configuration dual-frequency code and carrier phase signals, over T F = 10 min low-rate corrections from widearea ground stations Combined FF-SSF Availability N 40 N 50 N Iridium/GPS GPS/Galileo performance for the assumed 10 m VAL is extremely poor (not represented) 120 W 50 N 110 W 100 W 90 W 80 W 70 W Iridium/GPS/Galileo 40 N An extended-window RAIM algorithm was also derived, which provides 100% availability at all locations. 30 N 120 W 110 W 100 W 90 W 80 W 70 W 31
32 Conclusion Single-frequency implementation: designed and experimentally evaluated two ionospheric error models developed a conservative approach to account for mis-modeling errors Traveling ionospheric disturbances: are extremely challenging to model and affect positioning performance other strategies OR dual-frequency may be needed for high-integrity Worst-case dual-frequency performance evaluation derived an analytical expression of the worst-case fault mode dual-frequency Iridium/GPS and Iridium/GPS/Galileo can potentially provide high-integrity positioning over wide areas Other measurement error models (SV clock and orbit, troposphere) require experimental validation 32
