Rapid IGS Orbit Combination - Week 1409 Day: 4 (Jan 11, 2007)
Contacts: G. Gendt (gendt at gfz-potsdam.de),
Th. Nischan ( nisn at gfz-potsdam.de)
COMBINATION STRATEGY:
---------------------
For a complete description of the combination strategy along with all tables
and statistics, please refer to the IGS Final Combination reports posted on
CDDIS within 13 days after the end of the GPS week.
PRODUCT FILES:
--------------
The Rapid Orbit files generated and uploaded into CDDIS @ NASA/GSFC are:
igr14094.sp3 IGR GPS ephemeris in SP3 format.
igr14094.clk IGR GPS satellite and station clocks in RINEX format.
igr14094.cls IGR GPS clock combination summary report.
igr14094.erp Earth Rotation Parameters (ERP) and their rates as well as
Universal Time (UT1-UTC) and Length Of Day (LOD) associated
with IGS ephemerides.
igr14094.sum Combination summary report.
REMARKS concerning the IGR Orbit Combination:
---------------------------------------------
1. Broadcast ("brd") orbits/clocks are included in the combination for
statistics only. However broadcast clock corrections are used for clock
alignment to GPS time and centre clock weight determination purposes.
2. The following center solutions (orbits/clocks) were excluded from the
combination but kept for statistics:
-> Centre: IGA IGU
3. The following centre clock solutions, which provide broadcast clock
corrections, were excluded from the combination but kept in the
combination statistics:
-> Centre: NGS
4. The following clock solutions were excluded from the combination because
they were biasing the combined clock solutions (clock shifts/outliers)
but were kept for the RMS computation.
All clocks from JPL and USN.
Day | Centre | PRN/STA list
----+--------+---------------
4 | ESA | 18
5. The following orbit solutions were excluded from the combination because
they were biasing the weighted average. They were still used for statistics
computation unless all centres were excluded for the problem satellites in
which case they were simply eliminated from the combination and statistics.
The following table lists the exclusions:
Day | Centre | PRN list
----+--------+---------------
4 | GFZ | 7
4 | SIO | 7 12
6. Starting on 5-Nov-2006 (GPS Week 1400-0, MJD 54044) all IGS products,
including the IGS combined orbits, are based on the IGS realization of the
ITRF2005 reference frame (IGS05). For more information see IGSMAIL #5447.
7. Starting on 5-Nov-2000 (GPS Week 1087-0; mjd=51853) all IGS clock products
are based on the new clock combination scheme which uses the the clock
RINEX files as input if available, otherwise SP3 clocks are used.
The navigation solution is still based on the SP3 clocks but this will
soon adopt the clock RINEX files as well.
8. Starting on 5-Nov-2006 (GPS Week 1400, day 0, MJD 54044) the absolute antenna model
is introduced (IGSMAIL #5272). The antenna phase center offsets and phase center
variations are given in the file:

Table 2: Daily fit for each satellite and each centre resulting from weighted
average combination.
The last column gives the IGR resulting satellite accuracy measures
found in the IGS SP3 header. Eclipsing satellites are flagged with
"E" (or "M" for moon) beside the PRN number. "X" stands for excluded
from RMS, WRMS and MEDI-combination statistics but included in IGU
Units: cm.
