The possibilities to improve values of the satellite orbit elements by employing the pseudo-ranges and differences of carrier phase frequencies measured at many reference GPS stations are analysed. An improvement of orbit ephemeris is achieved by solving

Broadcast Ephemeris with Centimetric Accuracy: Test Results for GPS, Galileo, Beidou and Glonass
Here we test the capability of the Broadcast Ephemeris Message, in both its GPS-like (Keplerian ellipse with secular and periodic perturbations) and Glonass-like (numerical integration of a 9D state vector) formats, to reproduce a corresponding precise ...

Performance Assessment of Non-Integer-Hour Data Blocks in BDS Broadcast Ephemeris
Due to system anomalies, BeiDou navigation satellite system (BDS) sometimes updates the broadcast ephemeris at non-integral hours. The gross errors contained in the non-integer-hour data blocks of broadcast ephemeris will lead to the signal-in-space (SIS)

Since BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) and Japan’s Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) have more visible satellites in the Asia-Pacific region, and navigation satellites of Global Positioning System (GPS), Galileo satellite navigation system ...

ABSTRACT A Late Upper Paleolithic (LUP) site containing Ahrensburgian‐type stone tools has been discovered at South Cuidrach, Isle of Skye, Scotland. Together with a group of intertidal stone circular alignments also recently discovered on the island, this new evidence for the occupation of northern Scotland also represents the most northerly LUP site ...

Abstract Near‐earth orbits are becoming congested because of a rapid growth in the number of satellites and space debris, which presents a real threat to the sustainable use of space and the safety of the Earth. Despite space scientists and public policymakers having been actively seeking solutions for decades, solving the problem has been put off ...

The fettered and the flea: a new poem by Edmund Waller☆
Abstract This contribution explores for the first time a 22‐line poem in a British Library manuscript, ‘To a young lady that kept a flea chay'nd in a box’, which can be convincingly ascribed to Edmund Waller. Its most famous relative is Donne's ‘The Flea’, but its ancestry differs.

Abstract How much of Io's SO2 ${\text{SO}}_{2}$ atmosphere is driven by volcanic outgassing or sublimation of SO2 ${\text{SO}}_{2}$ surface frost is a question with a considerable history. We develop a time dependent surface temperature model including thermal inertia and the exact celestial geometry to model the radiation driven global structure and ...

The Chinese BeiDou navigation satellite system (BDS) aims to provide global positioning service by 2020. The combined use of BDS and Global Positioning System (GPS) is proposed to provide navigation service with more stringent requirements.
