This paper discusses the quality of slant wet delays (SWD) computed from GPS measurements. The SWDs are generally used as input data for GPS tomography, which allows the three-dimensional reconstruction of water vapour distribution in the atmosphere. The research presented is based on a comparison of slant wet delays acquired by different strategies based on double-differenced Global Positioning System (GPS) data. The GPS-derived SWDs were compared with those directly measured by a water vapour radiometer (W VR). The best results from the applied G PS strategies were achieved by a simple mapping of GPS-derived zenith total delays into SWD without adding horizontal gradients or post-fit residuals., Michal Kačmařík, Jan Douša and Jan Zapletal., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
The aim of this paper is the analysis of temporal changes in multipath propagation errors on the pseudorange GNSS signal used for positioning, and its behavior during the calendar year (the quality of signal depends on e.g. foliage of trees, changes reflectivity surfaces due to rain or snow, etc.). The analysis was performed on data measured on a stationary point at Geodetic Observatory Pecný at Ondřejov, where one day was chosen as a constant time unit. Given the relatively highly unfavorable configuration of the experiment, RMS value of multipath is up to 60 cm on C1 and 40 cm on C2. These values vary with different weather conditions between 10 and 20 cm.
