An improved global pressure and zenith wet delay model with optimized vertical correction considering the spatiotemporal variability in multiple height-scale factors [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development
Atmospheric pressure and zenith wet delay (ZWD) are essential for global navigation satellite system (GNSS) tropospheric correction and precipitable water vapor (PWV) retrieval. As the development progresses of real-time GNSS kinematic technology, moving

Precise estimation of tropospheric path delays with GPS techniques [PDF]

open access: yes
Tropospheric path delays are a major source of error in deep space tracking. However, the tropospheric-induced delay at tracking sites can be calibrated using measurements of Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites.

A new algorithm for microwave delay estimation from water vapor radiometer data [PDF]

open access: yes
A new algorithm has been developed for the estimation of tropospheric microwave path delays from water vapor radiometer (WVR) data, which does not require site and weather dependent empirical parameters to produce high accuracy.

VLBI Astrometry of AGB Variables with VERA -- A Semiregular Variable S Crateris --

open access: yes, 2008
We present a distance measurement for the semiregular variable S Crateris (S Crt) based on its annual parallax. With the unique dual beam system of the VLBI Exploration for Radio Astrometry (VERA) telescopes, we measured the absolute proper motion of a ...

Observation model and parameter partials for the JPL VLBI parameter estimation software MASTERFIT-1987 [PDF]

open access: yes
This report is a revision of the document of the same title (1986), dated August 1, which it supersedes. Model changes during 1986 and 1987 included corrections for antenna feed rotation, refraction in modelling antenna axis offsets, and an option to ...

Deep-space navigation with differenced data types. Part 3: An expanded information content and sensitivity analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
An approximate six-parameter analytic model for Earth-based differential range measurements is presented and is used to derive a representative analytic approximation for differenced Doppler measurements.

Test and evaluation of water vapor radiometers [PDF]

open access: yes
The accuracy of very long baseline interferometry in geodetic and astrometric applications is primarily limited by the propagation delays through the troposphere.

Studies of regional and global tectonics and the rotation of the earth using very-long baseline interferometry [PDF]

open access: yes
Progress in the areas of data analysis, atmospheric delay calibration and software conversion is reported. Over 800 very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) experiments were analyzed in the last 6 months.
