The present application claims the priority of the Chinese patent application filed with the Chinese Patent Office with application number 201810566043.4 on Jun. 4, 2018, and the entire contents of which are incorporated into the present application by reference.
The present application relates to satellite navigation technology, and for example to a fast and precise positioning method and system.
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GLASS) include the US Global Positioning System (GPS), Russian GLONASS Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS), EU Galileo Positioning System (Galileo), China Beidou System, Japanese Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) and Indian India Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS), etc. The global satellite navigation system mainly determines the position, velocity and time (Position Velocity Time, PVT) of the moving carrier by using the principle of distance rear intersection through measuring the distance from the satellite to the receiver. The PVT performance of the satellite navigation systems is not only limited by the accuracy of satellite orbits and clock bias products, but also related to the accuracy of the error models of the ionosphere, troposphere and the like and the correctness of the ambiguity parameter fixation. However, the convergence velocity of orientation parameter solution for positioning, velocity measurement and timing mainly depends on the spatial geometric configurations of the navigation satellites. Currently, the precise positioning convergence process ranges from 15 minutes to 30 minutes, and the long convergence time cannot meet the requirements of high-precision real time positioning.
In order to reduce the convergence time, regional augmentation or joint solution of multiple navigation systems is currently mainly used. In regional augmentation systems, such as Real Time Kinematic (RTK), Real-Time extended (RTX), and Precise Point Positioning-Real Time Kinematic (PPP-RTK), error information of the ionosphere, troposphere and the like of the current region is solved by using regional reference stations, to correct the corresponding errors at the mobile station, so as to achieve a rapid separation of the ambiguity parameter and the position parameter, that is, the ambiguity parameter can be fixed within a few epochs, and positioning results in the order of centimeter and velocity measurement and timing results of a corresponding accuracy are achieved. By using multi-navigation satellite system, the number of observable satellites can be greatly increased, the spatial geometric configurations of the satellites can be improved, and the convergence velocity of parameter solutions can be accelerated, thereby improving the PVT performance.
However, all of the above methods have their limitations. For example, the regional augmentation system can only provide high-precision PVT services within a certain range, and the multi-navigation satellite system has a limited effect on accelerating the convergence of Precise Point Positioning (PPP).
The following is an overview of the subject matters described in detail herein. The present overview is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the claims.
The regional augmentation system is restricted by regions. Generally, it can only provide high-precision PVT services within a certain range. If the functioning scope is exceeded, the augmentation information is no longer available. Although the multi-navigation satellite system can improve its convergence velocity, because the relevant navigation satellites are located in medium-to-high orbits, and the angle swept by the satellites at the zenith in a short time is small, and the changes in the spatial geometric configurations of the satellites are not obvious, this method has a limited effect on accelerating the convergence of Precise Point Positioning, and its convergence time still needs at least 6 minutes in the case that the ambiguity is fixed. Considering that the LEO augmentation satellites move relatively fast relative to the ground monitoring station, it will lead to rapid geometric structure changes and rapid separation of the ambiguity parameters and the position parameters, thereby accelerating the convergence velocity of PVT. Therefore, an effective way to break through the bottleneck of the current high-precision PVT services is to combine the medium-, high-, low-orbit augmentation satellites for navigation services.
The present application proposes a positioning method and system based on navigation satellites and Low Earth Orbit (LEO) augmentation satellites, which use LEO augmentation satellite constellations to broadcast navigation satellite signals, thereby realizing large-scale rapid and high-precision PVT services by combining high-, middle-, low-orbit navigation satellites.

I. Unified Linear Observation Equations of Medium-, High-, Low-Orbit Augmentation Satellites Obtained by Normalizing by Taking a Type of Satellite Navigation System as Reference
To implement the positioning method provided by the present application, it is first necessary to construct and linearize unified observation equations for the medium-, high-, low-orbit augmentation satellites, and the receiver obtains the observation values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters according to the constructed linear observation equations. Wherein multi-frequency information sources of the medium-, high-, low-orbit constellation include multi-frequency information sources of at least one of all existing satellite navigation systems and the LEO augmentation satellite navigation system. The navigation satellites and the LEO augmentation satellites have the same positioning methods, and observation values of the two can be put together for adjustment solution. The mathematical model of the observation equations themself is a nonlinear equation, so it is necessary to perform Taylor expansion of the equation, and a linear equation can be obtained after discarding the second-order terms. The observation values of the navigation satellites and the LEO augmentation satellites can be expressed as a linear equation system of the positions and the receiver clock biases. Using differential observation values, the observation equations related to the monitoring station velocity term and the rate of change of the receiver clock biases can be obtained. By combining these two types of observation equations, the optimal estimation of the three parameters of PVT can be obtained.
The basic observation values of the navigation satellites acquired by the receiver from navigation telegrams include two type of pseudo-ranges ρ and carrier phases ϕ at multiple frequency points. The observation values of the pseudo-range and phase from the satellite s to the monitoring station a at the frequency point i can be expressed as:
ρi,as=Ras+masTa+cδta−cδts+γiIas+dρ
ϕi,as=Ras+masTa+cδta−cδts+γiIas+dϕ
wherein Ras is the geometric distance between the satellite and the monitoring station, Ta is the tropospheric delay parameter in the zenith direction of the monitoring station, the mapping function corresponding to Ta is mas, c is the velocity of light in vacuum, δts and δta are respectively the satellite clock bias and the receiver clock bias,
in which fi is the carrier frequency at the frequency point i, the wavelength corresponding to fi is
Ias is the oblique ionospheric delay, dρ
In the equation (1), the zenith tropospheric delay parameter Ta and the receiver clock bias δta are only related to the monitoring station, the satellite clock bias δts is only related to the satellite, the oblique ionospheric delay parameter Ias is related to the monitoring station and the satellite, and the hardware delay parameters of the pseudo-range and phase at the satellite side or the receiver side are mainly related to the monitoring station, the satellite, types of observation values, tracking frequency and the like, respectively.
In navigation satellite data processing, different types of combinations of phase and pseudo-range observation values are often constructed as needed, wherein because the influence of the first-order ionosphere is eliminated in the ionosphere-free combination, it is widely used to construct observation equations for high-precision data processing. The observation equation can be expressed as:
wherein ρLC,as and ϕLC,as are respectively pseudo-range and phase observation values of the ionosphere-free combination, dρ
The hardware delays dρ
wherein
is the wavelength of the observation values of ionosphere-free combination, NLC,as the corresponding integer ambiguity parameter, the value of which is:
Taking into account the correlation of each parameter in the equation (2) with the monitoring stations, the satellites and the signal frequencies, etc., for multi-system observations, the equation (2) can be extended to:
ρLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδta−cδtS,s+dρ
ϕLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδta−cδtS,s+dϕ
ρLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδta−cδtS,s+dρ
ϕi,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδta−cδtS,s+dϕ
wherein S denotes the GNSS system. For GPS, Galileo, QZSS and Beidou navigation satellite systems and the like that use code division multiple access technology, the carrier frequencies of different satellites thereof are the same, so the hardware delays of the pseudo-range and carrier phase observation values at the receiver side are the same for all single-system satellites. However, because the GLONASS system uses frequency division multiple access technology, its corresponding hardware delays of the pseudo-range and phase at the receiver side are also related to the satellite (frequency), and different GLONASS satellites (frequency) correspond to different hardware delays at the receiver side.
Since in the PVT model, the clock biases of the navigation satellites are the same and they will absorb the hardware delay dρ
ρLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aS
ϕLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aS+(dρ
ρLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aS (7)
wherein cδ{tilde over (t)}a=cδ{tilde over (t)}a+dρ
ρLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aG+(dρ
ϕLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aG++(dρ
ρLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aG+(dρ
wherein dρ
The GNSS observation equation itself is a nonlinear equation, and related parameter estimation methods are generally applicable to linear systems, so it needs to be Taylor expanded. The GNSS observation equation is expanded at the approximate coordinates of the monitoring station according to the Taylor's formula, and its second-order terms are discarded, so that linear expressions about position and time are obtained as follows:
ρLC,aS,s=Ra,0S,s−lΔxa−mΔya−nΔza+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aG+(dρ
ϕLC,aS,s=Ra,0S,s−lΔxa−mΔya−nΔza+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aG++(dρ
ρLC,aS,s=RaS,s+maS,sTa+cδ{tilde over (t)}aG+(dρ
wherein Ra,0S,s is the distance between station and satellite calculated according to the initial coordinates of the station and satellite, l, m and n are linearization coefficients, and are respectively
and xs, ys and zs are the coordinates of the satellite, xa, ya and za are the initial coordinates of the monitoring station, Δxa, Δya and Δza respectively are respectively correction values thereof.
In the equation (9), only the timing and positioning functions are completed, and the velocity measurement observation equation is:
wherein {dot over (ϕ)}i,sS,s; denotes the rate of phase change between the monitoring station and the satellite in the unit of cycle/s, Δt denotes the sampling interval, and is {dot over (x)}s, {dot over (y)}s and żs are the rates of the satellite, {dot over (x)}a, {dot over (y)}a and ża are the rates of the monitoring station, δ{tilde over ({dot over (t)})}a denotes the receiver clock velocity, {dot over (T)}a denotes the rate of change of the troposphere.
II. Constructing Positioning and Velocity Measurement Parameter State Equation with Root-Mean-Square Filtering Algorithm
After establishing position and time observation equations and velocity observation equations, the root-mean-square filtering algorithm is used to perform state estimation on the positioning and velocity measurement parameters. Due to the addition of the LEO augmentation satellite observation values, the rapid convergence of the PPP can be realized and parameters information with higher precision can be obtained.
The main steps of root-mean-square information filtering will be given below, and its state equation is:
xk=Φ(tk,tk-1)xk-1+Γ(tk,tk-1)uk-1
wherein xk-1 has priori value
wherein
ūk-1=uk-1+αk-1
E[αk-1]=0, E[αk-1αk-1T]=Q, thereby constructing the virtual observation equation of state noise:
The flitering observation equation is:
yk-1=Hk-1x+εk-1
wherein E[ε]=0, E(εεT)=I.
According to the minimum variance criterion, the observation update function of the root-mean-square information filtering algorithm can be constructed:
Ĵk-1=∥
If it is written in matrix form, then:
By orthogonally changing the above equation, the following can be obtained:
It is also possible to construct the state update function of the root-mean-square information filtering algorithm according to the minimum variance criterion:
If it is written in matrix form, then:
wherein {tilde over (R)}k={circumflex over (R)}k-1Φ−1(tk, tk-1), and by orthogonally transforming, the following can be obtained:
When using medium and high orbit information sources to solve positioning and velocity measurement parameters, due to the limitations of the satellite constellation, the accuracy of the solution and the convergence time often cannot meet the requirements of fast and high-precision positioning. The use of medium-, high-, low-orbit multi-frequency information source fusion positioning can augment the geometric structure of the visible satellites, achieve rapid convergence, and thereby improve the accuracy of positioning solution.
In the step S110, observation data of navigation satellites and LEO augmentation satellites are acquired at a current epoch and preprocessed. The process is as follows: acquiring multi-system multi-band observation values and LEO augmentation satellite observation values through receiver tracking and observations, and preprocessing the data.
Wherein the navigation satellites include at least one of the US GPS, China Beidou, EU Galileo, and Russian GLONASS satellite navigation systems.
In the step S120, navigation telegrams of the navigation satellites and the LEO augmentation satellites are acquired, and precise orbits and clock biases of the navigation satellites and of the LEO augmentation satellites are obtained at the same time according to the acquired navigation telegrams of the LEO augmentation satellites. The process is: acquiring the navigation telegrams of the navigation satellites and the LEO augmentation satellites, and using the number of orbits and the clock bias coefficients provided by the navigation telegrams to interpolate to obtain the satellite position and the satellite clock bias at the current time point. Wherein because the LEO augmentation satellites have different characteristics from the navigation satellites, the navigation telegrams of the LEO augmentation satellites are different from the navigation telegrams of the navigation satellites. For example, the navigation telegrams of the LEO augmentation satellites have more types of parameters. Therefore, the calculation of the orbits and clock biases of the LEO augmentation satellites is also different from the calculation of the orbits and clock biases of the navigation satellites. For example, compared with the calculation of the orbits of the navigation satellites, in the calculation of the orbits of the LEO augmentation satellites, more perturbation factors need to be considered. Because the accuracy of the orbits and satellite clock biases of the LEO augmentation satellites and the navigation satellites given by the broadcast ephemeris generally cannot meet the high-precision positioning requirements. In an embodiment, in order to obtain real-time orbits and real-time clock biases with high precision, State Space Representation (SSR) correction information can be received in real time through the network.
In the step S130, errors received in the positioning process are corrected according to the acquired navigation telegrams.
Errors that can be corrected by the error model are corrected in the step 130, and then errors that cannot be corrected by the error model are corrected through the calculation of the positioning and velocity measurement parameter observation values in the step S140 and the estimation of the positioning and velocity measurement parameters in the step S150. For the LEO augmentation satellites and the navigation satellites, some errors are different, and the errors need to be corrected correspondingly according to different satellite navigation systems.
In the positioning process, the positioning result is often affected by multiple terms of errors, and weakening each error is the basis for obtaining high-precision positioning results. According to the correlation, these errors can be divided into errors related to the monitoring stations, errors related to the satellites, and errors related to satellite signal propagation. The commonly used methods to weaken the positioning errors include model correction and parameter estimation. For some error terms, the physical characteristics of which has been understood, their effects can be accurately eliminated by using correction formulas, such as relativistic effects, earth rotation effects, etc.; for some error terms that can be fitted with a model, their effects can be eliminated by using model values obtained by the fitting model, such as solid earth tide correction, tropospheric correction, etc.; and for some other error terms with unknown physical characteristics and poor model fitting, parameter estimation methods can be used to eliminate their impact on positioning, such as receiver clock biases, etc.:
In the step S140, observation values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters are calculated according to unified linear observation equations obtained by normalizing by taking a type of satellite navigation system as reference. The process is as follows: according to the obtained observation data and navigation telegrams, the position of the receiver through the above formula (9) is calculated, and the clock bias of the receiver can also be calculated at the same time; the velocity of the receiver can also be calculated through the above formula (10).
In the step S150, according to the calculated observation values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters and estimated values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters at the previous epoch, estimating positioning and velocity measurement parameters at the present epoch through a state equation, to obtain estimated values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters at the current epoch. The process is as follows: according to the calculated observation values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters and estimated values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters at the previous epoch, calculating estimated values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters at the present epoch through the above formula (11), and saving the calculated estimated values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters.
In the step S160, according to the estimated values of positioning and velocity measurement parameters at the current epoch, positioning and velocity measurement results at the current epoch are generated and saved, and the processing returns to the step S110.
