Review and principles of PPP-RTK methods

PPP-RTK is integer ambiguity resolutionenabled precise point positioning. In this contribution, we present the principles of PPP-RTK, together with a review of different mechanizations that have been proposed in the literature. By application of S-system theory, the estimable parameters of the different methods are identified and compared. Their interpretation is essential for gaining a proper ...

A Novel Un-differenced PPP-RTK Concept

In this contribution, a novel un-differenced (UD) (PPP-RTK) concept, i.e. a synthesis of Precise Point Positioning and Network-based Real-Time Kinematic concept, is introduced. In the first step of our PPP-RTK approach, the UD GNSS observations from a regional reference network are processed based upon re-parameterised observation equations, corrections for satellite clocks, phase biases and (i...

Multiple Carrier Ambiguity Resolution and Performance Benefits for RTK and PPP Positioning Services in Regional Areas

Based on original code and phase measurements to three or more ranging signals offered by future GNSS systems, this paper outlines geometry-free and geometry-based ambiguity resolution (AR) strategies for DD phase measurements and introduces the algorithms that improve estimation of zero-differenced (ZD) phase biases using a network of GNSS reference stations. Given three L-band frequencies, AR...

PPP-RTK: Results of CORS Network-Based PPP with Integer Ambiguity Resolution

During the last decade the technique of CORS-based Network RTK has been proven capable of providing cm-level positioning accuracy for rovers receiving GNSS correction data from the CORS network. The technique relies on successful integer carrier-phase ambiguity resolution at both network and user level: at the level of the CORS network, ambiguity resolution is a prerequisite in order to determi...
