IGLOS Orbit Combination - Week 1406 (Dec 17, 2006 - Dec 23, 2006)

COMBINATION STRATEGY:
---------------------
Ephemeris are combined as weighted averages computed over all centres.
Each centre and satellite is given a position weight computed from the centers
absolute deviation to the unweighted average orbit after removing small
differences in the reference frames. These weights were applied in a
second iteration to estimate Helmert transformation parameters for each
center. Finally the transformation parameters with respect to the combined
solution and the RMS of the fit are reported in Tables 2.1406.
For long arc computations the Earth Orientation Parameters (EOPs) are fixed to
the values of the final IGS (GPS) combination.
SOFTWARE:
---------
The weighted average software used was originally developed by T. Springer
and G. Beutler in 1993. The GPS long arc orbit analysis software used here for
individual centre ephemeris evaluation was developed by Beutler et al. at the
Astronomical Institute of the University of Bern (AIUB). For more details on
the orbit combination and complete references for both software see:

PRODUCTS GENERATED:
-------------------
The combined IGL-ephemerides are written to daily files in the SP3-format.
The satellite accuracy codes in the header are based on the weighted rms.
for each satellite. Note, that the result files contain all satellites
that were analysed by at least one center. We refer to the 'REMARKS' section
below, in case a satellite or center was excluded from the combination.
The following naming convention is used for the result files:
igl1406[0-6].sp3 IGLOS-PP Glonass ephemerides files for days 0-6
of GPS Week 1406 in the SP3 format.

REMARKS concerning the IGL Orbit Combination:
---------------------------------------------
1. Broadcast (brd) orbits and clocks are included in the combination for
statistics only.
2. Having only a few satellites the mcc orbits are included in the combination
for statistics only.
3. Starting on 01-May-2005 (GPS Week 1321; MJD 53491)[IGSMAIL-5151]
BKG, ESA, and CODE will start to refer their GLONASS orbit products
to the following satellite antenna offset (SAO) values:
X/Y/Z = 0.000/0.000/0.000 meter for GLONASS and
X/Y/Z = -0.545/0.000/0.000 meter for GLONASS-M SVs.
4. The satellite clock values in the combined orbit files are taken from the
broadcast files. The following gps/glonass time offsets derived from the
bkg summary files were added to the broadcast clocks.
Day | applied clock offset
----+---------------------
0 | 651.7 ns
1 | 663.6 ns
2 | 636.9 ns
3 | 600.1 ns
4 | 598.4 ns
5 | 697.9 ns
6 | 689.6 ns
5. The following orbit solutions were excluded from the combination
because they were biasing the weighted average (generally indicated
by long arc RMS).

ORBIT COMBINATION AND EVALUATION STATISTICS:
--------------------------------------------
Table 1 summarizes all statistics for the week. It contains means and standard
deviations over the week of satellite ephemeris and clock correction
transformation parameters for each centre (Tables 1.1406, 1a.1406).
Table 2 contains the complete ephemeris and clock correction transformation
parameters (includes both the apriori and a posteriori values) for each
centre and each day (Tables 2.1406.0-6)
Table 3 contains two types of daily RMS for each satellite and centre, along
with the computed satellite position sigmas for the combined orbits
(tables 3.1406.0-6).
The first type of satellite RMS is based on orbit combination and the
second RMS type is a result of the 7-day arc evaluation of each centre
ephemerides.
