Preliminary Results on Tropospheric ZTD Estimation by Smartphone [PDF]
The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver is one of the many sensors embedded in smartphones. The early versions of the Android operating system could only access limited information from the GNSS, allowing the related Application Program Interface (API) to obtain only the location.

Quality control of SIRGAS ZTD products [PDF]
AbstractThe SIRGAS-CON network currently has more than 450 continuous GNSS stations, and it is used for geodetic purposes. In atmospheric studies, it is used for ionospheric monitoring and for the estimation of zenith tropospheric delays (ZTDs). From the Neutral Atmosphere Analysis Center of SIRGAS, Centro de Ingeniería Mendoza Argentina, the final ...

Impacts of Stochastic Modeling on GPS-derived ZTD Estimations [PDF]
GPS-derived ZTD (Zenith Tropospheric Delay) plays a key role in near real-time weather forecasting, especially in improving the precision of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. The ZTD is usually estimated using the first-order Gauss-Markov process with a fairly large correlation, and under the assumption that all the GPS measurements, carrier ...

A Novel Method for Monitoring Tropical Cyclones’ Movement Using GNSS Zenith Tropospheric Delay [PDF]
Precipitable water vapor (PWV) is an important meteorological factor for predicting extreme weather events such as tropical cyclones, which can be obtained from zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD) by using a conversion.

MSE-impact of PPP-RTK ZTD estimation strategies [PDF]
In PPP-RTK network processing, the wet component of the zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD) cannot be precisely modelled and thus remains unknown in the observation equations. For small networks, the tropospheric mapping functions of different stations to a given satellite are almost equal to each other, thereby causing a near rank-deficiency between the ...

Variational Bias Correction of GNSS ZTD in the HARMONIE Modeling System [PDF]
AbstractTo fill the gap in the observation system for humidity, the HIRLAM–ALADIN Research on Mesoscale Operational NWP in Euromed (HARMONIE) limited-area high-resolution kilometer-scale model has been prepared for assimilation of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) zenith total delay (ZTD) observations. The observation-processing system includes

A Tropospheric Zenith Delay Forecasting Model Based on a Long Short-Term Memory Neural Network and Its Impact on Precise Point Positioning [PDF]
Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals are affected by refraction when traveling through the troposphere, which result in tropospheric delay. Generally, the tropospheric delay is estimated as an unknown parameter in GNSS data processing.
