3) Combination Strategy:
========================
The AC solutions are processed using the following procedure:
3-1) The AC solutions are checked/corrected for possible format problems,
station names inconsistencies, etc...
3-2) Constrained AC solutions are unconstrained according to the information
given in their SOLUTION/APRIORI blocks and then minimally constrained.
AC solutions given in the form of a normal matrix (esa) are inverted by
adding minimal constraints.
3-4) The weekly AC solutions are combined. The 7-parameters singularity is
avoided by using internal constraints. Iterations are performed until no
residuals exceed 5 cm or 5 sigma.
3-5) The combined solution is compared to IGS05 propagated at current week
(datum). Some outliers may be removed from the datum. Finally, the
combined solution is aligned to the datum using a 7-parameters
transformation.
3-6) The AC solutions NOT used in the combination are compared to the combined
solution in order to identify and remove outliers.
3-7) The weekly combined solution is added to the cumulative solution.
Iterations are performed until no residuals exceed 3 cm or 3 sigma in the
weekly solution.
3-8) The updated cumulative solution is compared to IGS05 (datum). Some outliers
may be removed from the datum. Finally, the cumulative solution is aligned
to the datum using a 14-parameters transformation.
4) Remarks:
===========
mit = mit15987.snx
mig = mit1598g.snx
ITR = IGS05.snx
igs = igs10P1598.snx
IGS = IGS10P34.snx
The following solutions are not used in the combination but only for
comparison:
mig ncl
Solutions with manual station deletion:
4-1) Starting with GPS week 1400, the solutions are aligned to the
IGS05.snx realization of ITRF2005.
4-2) Starting with GPS week 1078, UT1-UTC from IERS Bulletin A
is included in the erp files.
4-3) Starting with GPS week 1412, the accumulated ERP file has been
changed from "igs00p02.erp" to "igs00p03.erp". The main changes
are:
1) Correction of the pole position from IGb00 to IGS05 using the
transformation in:
http://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/mail/igsmail/2006/msg00178.html
2) Marginal ERP's in GPS week 1161 were replaced by reprocessed
values.
4-4) Starting with week 1598, the first iterative combinations are
performed using AC solutions minimally constrained over the 7
Helmert parameters. (Until week 1597, they were constrained over
the 3 rotations only.) The final combination is however still
performed with AC solutions minimally constrained in rotations only.
The combination is hardly affected by this change except that it is
now more sensitive to outliers.
5) Results:
============
5-1) AC (Variance Factor)^0.5 estimates:
=============================================
At each iteration, the variance factor for solution s is estimated by :
VF = (vs'*Ps*vs)/fs with fs = nobss - tr(As*Q*As'*Ps)
vs : residuals of solution s
Ps : weight matrix of solution s
nobss : number of observations of solution s
As : design matrix of solution s
Q : total covariance matrix
This variance factor is used to rescale the covariance matrix of solution s
for the next iteration.
Another scale factor is computed for each solution s, by comparing it to
the official cumulative solution of previous week (IGS) :
SF = (vs'*Ps*vs)/(3*nstas) with vs : residuals of the comparison
Ps : weight matrix of solution s
nstas : number of common stations

Outliers may be rejected at different stages of the processing:
- During the combination (stage 3-4)), outliers may be removed from the
weekly AC solutions. Thresholds are set to 5 cm and 5 sigma.
- During stage 3-6), outliers may be removed from the AC solutions NOT
included in the combination. Thresholds are set to 5 cm and 5 sigma.
- During the stacking of the weekly combined solution on the cumulative
solution (stage 3-7)), outliers may be removed from the weekly
solution. Thresholds are set to 3 cm and 8 sigma.
