| Abstract | Precipitable water vapour (PWV) is an important input for numerical weather prediction model, meteorology and high-precision navigational applications. Conventional methods for the determination of PWV using radiosonde are not sufficient owing to poor temporal resolution, whereas radiometer-derived PWV is reliable only in fair weather conditions. Global positioning system (GPS) is a very useful and cost-effective tool to determine PWV continuously in all weather conditions. The processing of GPS data to extract the PWV information is, however, very complicated due to very small effect of the PWV (∼0.5% of total delay) on GPS frequencies than other sources of delay and errors and requires a network of GPS in differential configuration for such purpose. The authors show how the problem can be handled in a standalone dual-frequency GPS receiver in a relatively less complicated manner with reasonable accuracy. The performances of different dry tropospheric delay models are also investigated. The methodology is tested with GPS measurements at Kolkata (22.57°N, 88.37°E) and Bangalore (13.01°N, 77.5°E). The results indicate that the proposed methodology can be implemented for PWV estimation using single GPS receiver with satisfactory performance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
