Description of analysis for period 1992 July 26 - August 01 (days 208-214,
GPS week 655)
******************************************************************************
On day 214 (August 1) an anti-spoofing test has been started which lasted
from day 214 to day 216. For the day 214 the NGS-Format orbit file contains
only such satellites, that obviously were not effected by anti-spoofing (see
table below).
******************************************************************************
1. SOFTWARE USED: GPSOBS/BAHN5
2. MODELS AND CONSTANTS USED
a) General: no changes with respect to previous runs
b) Satellite Force Model: no changes with respect to previous runs
The following table gives an overview over the satellites that have been
used for the different one-day-arc solutions: "+" used, "-" not used.

We have corrected a minor mistake in our estimation strategy that was
discovered just after last week's submission: our nominal value of the
dry troposphere delay has been zero, and not the 2 m as stated in IGS
mail message 37. This caused two systematic errors: (1) the entire
delay was estimated using the wet mapping function when in reality,
about 90 to100 % of the total delay is dry, and (2) our 50 cm a priori
standard deviation on the nominal zero delay systematically biases the
zenith delay estimates by about -1 cm, and the station height by about +3 cm.
These errors result in a positive network scaling bias at the level of
several parts per billion, which should be unnoticeable for regional
baselines. The consequence of this is essentially a 20- to 40-cm 3d
rms systematic error in orbit determination. Polar motion was affected
at the <~ 0.5-mas level. We emphasize that this effect is small, and
we discuss it here for completeness.
Beginning with GPS week 655 (this submission), this error has been corrected.
Week 655 ended on an interesting note: the DOD turned on Anti-Spoofing (AS) on
Saturday, August 1. Anti-spoofing is essentially the encryption of P code, so
that precise pseudorange is not available. The Rogue receivers, however,
take advantage of the fact that both P1 and P2 are encrypted the same way, so
that they can be "cross correlated". An accurate meassurement of P1-P2 is then
possible. Together with the unencrypted C/A, our analysis software proceeds
in much the same way as with normal P code data.
As if anti-spoofing weren't enough, however, the DOD also failed to broadcast
ephemerides for block II satellites for most of Aug 1.
We therefore do not include results for August 1.
WARNING: GPS data from August 1 are suspect because of A-S and missing broadcast ephemerides.
