Subject:  JPL orbit products
          ------------------


We omitted from our original description (IGS Mail Message 37) that JPL's orbit
product, like the broadcast ephemeris, refers to the coordinates of the 
spacecraft's antenna phase center, not its center of mass.

This decision was based on our feeling that the majority of users would
use the information as a replacement to the broadcast ephemeris, in which
case referring to center-of-mass coordinates would be inappropriate.

Although the information which follows is not necessary for such users, for
completeness we provide here our assumptions about the vector from
the spacecraft center of mass to the antenna phase center.

(1) No distinction is made among L1, L2, and LC. According to our contact with
the Aerospace Corporation, the phase centers have not been well enough
measured to make such a distinction.

(2) The coordinate system in the table below has Z pointing from the
satellite's center of mass to the Earth's center of mass, Y as the cross
product of Z with the vector from satellite to sun, and X completes a
right-handed system (X cross Y = Z).

          Vector from Center of Mass to Antenna Phase Center

                        X (m)        Y (m)        Z (m)

Block I satellites      0.21         0.0          0.854

Block II satellites     0.279        0.0          0.9519

The figures are believed accurate to +/- a few centimeters.

(3) When the Earth, sun, and spacecraft are in alignment, the X and Y
components of the above coordinate system are ill-defined. Therefore, if
the satellite-sun and satellite-Earth directions are within 3 degrees of
being collinear, only the radial (Z) component above is used.

Subject:  AS and the Tracking Network
          ---------------------------

Tracking Network Performance and the effects of AS
Ref. IGS Mail Messages 69,73 & 75 


There is legitimate concern over the loss of quality data 
for the tracking network during the implementation of 
AS (Anti-spoofing).  AS has been consistently activated 
on the Block II and IIa satellites over the weekends since 
the beginning of August.   The ultimate impact is that 
during the Epoch'92 campaign when 80 to 100 or more 
codeless GPS receivers were deployed for the 
densification of the global network and the robustness of 
the tracking network is lost for these time periods.

It is therefore important to summarize the status of the 
activities assessing the impact of AS on the operational 
IGS precision p-code (Rogue) tracking network:

1) This is not an inherent problem in the tracking loop 
software of the Rogue receivers.  Conversations with the 
Rogue development team indicate that the codeless data 
quality (rms) is sub-centimeter and consistent with 
codeless data produced by the other codeless receiver 
types.  Questions concerning this can be directed to Tom 
Meehan at JPL.
2) Two problems exist with the receiver software which 
are in the process of being fixed,  However, it is helpful 
to understand a bit about the architecture of the 
software.  The standard receiver software (Meenix) is 
present in all Rogue receivers.  It is enhanced at most 
locations through the CONAN software, which permits 
very efficient storage and uploading of the GPS data.  
There are two type of stations:
3 Deep Space Net stations that have continuous, 
dedicated communication lines for data transmission and 
operate under Meenix only; .
30 additional stations worldwide which depend on CONAN 
for periodic receiver access and data retrieval,  at a 
great reduction in communication costs .

The problems:
Meenix at the DSN does not record the Broadcast 
ephemeris correctly.
 
Meenix does however, handle AS correctly with the latest 
upgrade of the software.  Unfortunately this version of 
software was still in soak in late July at the DSN, but 
the data from the 3 DSN sites over the last weekend 
should provide the processing centers analysts with a 
Rogue codeless dataset.  The DSN stations are Canberra, 
Madrid and Goldstone.

The other 30 stations also operate this new version of 
Meenix and are quite capable of producing the proper AS 
data -- with the bypass of the CONAN efficiency.  As 
mentioned in U. Lindqwister's message included in IGS 
Mail 75, one can upload the data more frequently and 
retrieve the MEENIX output.  

Future problems can be better handled if we have 
increased communication among the processing centers 
and the Network Operations Group at JPL.  All  messages 
should be sent to:  
UJL at roguenet.jpl.nasa.gov
with attention to Ulf Lindqwister who is responsible for 
network engineering.
Whenever a data problem with receivers is encountered 
it would be helpful to be more specific and to 
immediately bring this to the attention of ALL 
processing centers and the Central Bureau (i.e.: this 
problem was discovered on day __, at these stations __, 
evident on these satellite(s) __ , for the time period __). 

ALL processing centers, please comment on the data files 
from the 3 DSN sites for the past weekend.  Feedback is 
important.

A schedule for upgrade of the additional 30 receivers  
which are operating with CONAN is being developed.  If 
any other problems are evident it would be best to try to 
incorporate them in the next upgrade.   In the interim, if 
there are periods of time when the AS codeless is 
desired from some stations, follow the directions given 
in IGS message 75 or contact U. Lindqwister or myself.  
Operationally this type of data upload  is rather 
cumbersome and time consuming, but perhaps it would be 
very worthwhile for a few globally distributed. stations.  


Sincerely,
Ruth Neilan

Yehuda Bock, Peng Fang and Keith Stark

This week we include the following information:

(1) Note on SA tests
(2) Polar motion results for 15-19 August
Note: We have a problem with the solutions for 20 and 21 August which
we are currently investigating. We will include these days in our
next report.
                 
(1) Note on SA tests

Our solutions during AS periods do not include data from
the affected satellites (i.e., PRN's 2,16,17,20,21,23,24,25,26,28).
The consequences at this stage:
(a) Our orbital products do not include improvements to these satellites
during the AS period.
(b) Polar motion values for the AS period have larger uncertainties.

(2) Polar motion results.

    The set of coordinates described below is based on the 
    analysis of the of the first 58 days of the IGS campaign, and
    include coordinates of the PGGA sites after the Landers earthquake.
    The polar motion table has been updated for the period 15-19 August.

NOTES:
 (a) The epoch refers to the epoch at which the site position applies
and not the mid-point of the data span.  We have also added the
velocities adopted for these sites at the end of each line.  For most sites
these are the NUVEL-1 velocities with the North American AM0-2 velocity
added.  For PIN1 and DS10, Observed velocities (based on a combined VLBI/
GPS solution using ~10 years of data have been used).
 (b) The PEQ notation in the site name (PINB, DS1B, SIOC and JPLB) denotes 
post-Landers earthquake position (applicable after 11:58 UTC June 28, 1992).
 (c) These coordinates were estimated from the first 51 days of IGS data.
They have been rotated and translated into the ITRF 1990 frame by use
of the horizontal coordinates at all sites.  The rms difference between 
the horizontal coordinates of these sites and our previous realization 
(second IERS submission) was 5 mm.

OUTLINE OF THE ESTIMATION OF GPS-ORBITS AND EARTH ROTATION PARAMETERS AT THE
ESOC PROCESSING CENTER FOR IGS

J.M.Dow, S.Casotto, J.Feltens, S.Frey, C.Garcia-Martinez, T.Martin-Mur

Description of analysis for period 1992 August 16-22 (days 229-235,GPS week 658)

 *******************************************************************************
 On days 229, 230 and 235 (August 16,17 and 22) there have been anti-spoofing
 tests. One test period lasted from day 228 to 230, the other one from day 235
 to 237. So for this days our NGS-Format orbit files only contain such satel-
 lites, that obviously were not affected 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.
