| Abstract | The GPS, DORIS, and SLR instruments are installed on Haiyang 2A (HY2A) altimetry satellite for Precise Orbit Determination (POD). Among these instruments, the codeless GPS receiver is the state-of-art Chinese indigenous onboard receiver, and it is the first one successfully used for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite. Firstly, the contribution assesses the performance of the receiver through an analysis of data integrity, numbers of all tracked and valid measurements as well as multipath errors. The receiver generally shows good performance and quality despite a few flaws. For example, L2 observations are often missing in low elevations, particularly during the ascent of GPS satellites, and the multipath errors of P1 show a slightly abnormal pattern. Secondly, the PCO (Phase Center Offset) and PCV (Phase Center Variation) of the antenna of the GPS receiver are determined in this contribution. A significant leap for Z-component of PCO up to −1.2 cm has been found on 10 October 2011. Thirdly, the obtained PCO and PCV maps are used for GPS only POD solutions. The post-fit residuals of ionosphere-free phase combinations reduce almost 50%, and the radial orbit differences with respect to CNES (Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales) Precise Orbit Ephemeris (POEs) improve about 13.9%. The orbits are validated using the SLR data, and the RMS of SLR Observed minus Computed (O-C) residuals reduces from 17.5 to 15.9 mm. These improvements are with respect to the orbits determined without PCO and PCV. Fourthly, six types of solutions are determined for HY2A satellite using different combinations of GPS, DORIS, and SLR data. Statistics of SLR O-C residuals and cross-comparison of orbits obtained in the contribution and the CNES POEs indicate that the radial accuracy of these orbits is at the 1.0 cm level for HY2A orbit solutions, which is much better than the scientific requirements of this mission. It is noticed that the GPS observations dominate the achievable accuracy of POD, and the combination of multiple types of observations can reduce orbit errors caused by data gaps and maintain more stable and continuous orbits. |

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.
