2020-2025年北斗三号广播星历及电离层模型性能研究

    Research on the Performance of Beidou-3 Broadcast Ephemeris and Ionospheric Model from 2020 to 2025

    • 北斗三号全球卫星导航系统(BDS-3)于2020年7月31日正式开通, 其空间段服务能力是决定系统整体性能表现的重要因素. 本文对广播轨道、广播钟差、空间信号测距误差、广播电离层精度的评估计算方法进行了分析, 分别以GFZ (German Research Centre for Geosciences)和iGMAS (International GNSS Monitoring and Assessment System)的最终产品为参考基准, 对系统从2020年正式开通至2025年的变化情况进行了评估分析. 研究表明, BDS-3广播轨道精度呈现明显的卫星类型相关性, MEO卫星高于IGSO卫星, 与GFZ产品和iGMAS产品相比, 径向、切向、法向 95% 的 RMS值均得到不同程度地改善; 广播钟差误差与SISRE (Signal-In-Space Range Error) 95%的 RMS值则提升了分米级的精度; 电离层模型误差方面, 在评估周期内, Klobuchar模型的VTEC值分布范围相对较广, 低VTEC区间BDGIM模型的频次分布更为集中; 与CODE和iGMAS电离层产品相比, 在太阳活动极小期的2020年BDGIM (Beidou Global Lonospheric Delay Correction Model) 模型VTEC平均RMS值优于Klobuchar模型, 而在太阳活动极大期的2025年两模型的VTEC平均RMS值均呈上升的趋势, 且BDGIM模型的稳定性更强.

       

      Abstract: The BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS-3) officially began providing global services on 31 July 2020. As the core component of satellite navigation systems, the space segment’s service capability determines the overall system performance. This paper first introduces calculation and analysis methods for broadcast orbit errors, broadcast clock errors, Signal-in-space range error and broadcast ionospheric errors. Then, based on the final products of German Geosciences Research Centre (GFZ) and International Global Navigation Satellite System Monitoring and Assessment System (iGMAS), it conducts an evaluation of the changes in broadcast ephemeris accuracy and ionospheric model precision throughout a complete cycle from 2020 to 2025. Research shows that the BDS-3 broadcast orbit error shows a clear dependence on satellite type, with MEO satellites outperforming IGSO satellites. Compared with GFZ products, the 95% RMS of the radial, along-track and cross-track error falls from 0.104, 0.482, 0.589 m respectively in 2020 to 0.080, 0.351, 0.364 m respectively in 2025; and compared with iGMAS products, these data fall from 0.086, 0.386, 0.461 m respectively in 2020 to 0.073 m, 0.341 m, 0.350 m in 2025. Regarding broadcast clock error, based on GFZ products, the 95% RMS improves from 0.705 m in 2020 to 0.540 m in 2025; and based on iGMAS products, the 95% RMS in 2020 is 0.811 m and 0.640 m in 2025. The SISRE of MEO satellites is generally smaller than that of IGSO satellites, and the statistical accuracies of 95% RMS of SISRE in 2020 based on GFZ and iGMAS products reaches 0.705 m and 0.817 m, and in 2025 reaches 0.549 m and 0.645 m, respectively. In terms of ionospheric model errors, throughout the evaluation period, the Klobuchar model exhibited a relatively broad distribution range of VTEC values. The BDGIM model demonstrated a more concentrated frequency distribution in the low VTEC intervals, while the Klobuchar model showed a relatively dispersed distribution in the high VTEC intervals. Compared with CODE and IGMAS ionospheric products, during the solar minimum period (2020), the BDGIM model achieved average VTEC RMS values of 3.193, 6.240, 1.570 TECU and 3.176, 6.790, 1.480 TECU, respectively, while the Klobuchar model yielded 7.359, 35.440, 4.350 TECU and 7.367, 35.930, 4.140 TECU, respectively. During the solar maximum period (2025), the average VTEC RMS values increased to 11.481 TECU and 10.493 TECU, 22.211 TECU and 21.802 TECU, respectively. Based on CODE products as reference, the maximum and minimum VTEC RMS values for the Klobuchar model and BDGIM model were 34.500, 10.400 TECU and 35.330, 6.640 TECU, respectively. The corresponding data referenced against IGMAS products reached 33.810, 10.000 TECU and 35.950, 5.890 TECU, respectively. And the assessment results can provide support for BDS performance optimization.
