Introduction

Purpose:Evaluation of the CDGPS Performance in Canada

Data:2003 June 7- June 21.24 hours RINEX data used from six IGS stations - To see theoverall accuracy.CDGPS NMEA output data and UNB1 Javad RINEX data -To evaluate the CDGPS receiver performance.CDGPS and WAAS Correction Messages - To analyze theerrors by UNB RTCA/MRTCA Correction Software.CHUR RINEX Data – To compare WAAS and CDGPSpositioning results

Analysis for ionospheric correction:2003 June 9 and 2003 June 18.

RBL/IUGG3 July 03

A Canadian Federal/Provincial/Territorial collaborative program to provide:

• Public infrastructure of real-time GPS Corrections(“GPS••C”) via L-band geostationary communicationssatellite (initially).

• Develop an initial user radio/receiver.

• Create enabling environment for private sectoradoption of the infrastructure

What is CDGPS?

Summary

Overall positioning accuracy for CDGPS is around 1.5metres in horizontal and 3 metres in verticalcomponent.

The accuracy depend on quality of receiver.

In the case of CDGPS receiver, the accuracy is almosttwo times worse than high quality receiver inhorizontal and vertical components

The accuracy of the ionospheric delays depend on thenumbers and locations of reference stations.

There are small differences (around 1.6m in earlymorning) of ionospheric vertical delays betweenCDGPS and WAAS.

RBL/IUGG3 July 03

Conclusions and Future Developments

During the time periods of analysis, there was nostrong ionospheric disturbances.

It is better to further analyze the CDGPSionospheric model in ionospheric stormconditions.

We might get better accuracy by improvingionospheric grid model in CDGPS.

To improve the CDGPS corrections andpositioning overall accuracy, it might be good toconsider to adding a few more reference stations.

CDGPS Future Plans

• Improve ionospheric grid modelling

• Add additional reference stations

• Encourage receiver manufacturers to– Utilize MRTCA output from CDGPS Rx

– Directly demodulate MSAT signal

• Dual-frequency capability possible– Expect 20-30 cm (95 %) positioning
