A forward operator and its adjoint for GPS slant total delays
In a recent study we developed a fast and accurate algorithm to compute Global Positioning System (GPS) Slant Total Delay (STDs) utilizing numerical weather model data. Having developed a forward operator we construct in this study the tangent linear (adjoint) operator by application of the chain rule of differential calculus in forward (reverse) mode. Armed with these operators we show in a si...
متن کاملA ray-tracing operator and its adjoint for the use of GPS/MET refraction angle measurements
The development of small, high-performance instruments to receive Global Positioning System (GPS) signals has created an opportunity for active remote sounding of the Earth’s atmosphere by radio occultation techniques. A prototype demonstration of this capability has been provided by the GPS Meteorology (GPS/MET) experiment. Although it was shown that high vertical resolution profiles of atmosp...
متن کامل4D Tropospheric Tomography using GPS Estimated Slant Delays
Tomographic techniques are successfully applied to obtain 4D images of the tropospheric refractivity in a local dense network. In the lower atmosphere both the small height and time scales and the non-dispersive nature of tropospheric delays require a more careful analysis of the data. We show how GPS data is processed to obtain the tropospheric slant delays using the GIPSY-OASIS II software an...
متن کاملThe rapid and precise computation of GPS slant total delays andmapping factors utilizing a numerical weather model
In a previous study we developed an elegant technique to compute the signal travel time delay due to the neutral atmosphere, also known as slant total delay (STD), between a Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite and a ground-based receiver utilizing data from a numerical weather model (NWM). Currently, we make use of NWM data from the Global Forecast System (GFS) because short-range forecas...
متن کاملOMPARISON OF DISCRETE FORWARD AND ADJOINT METHOD Forward Adjoint
Sensitivity analysis is an important tool for describing power system dynamic behavior in response to parameter variations. It is a central component in preventive and corrective control applications. The existing approaches for sensitivity calculations, namely, finite-difference and forward sensitivity analysis, require a computational effort that increases linearly with the number of sensitiv...
