Abstract: | Chinese Area Positioning System (CAPS) is a transmitted satellite navigation system moved by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Three basic modes of navigation and positioning with CAPS are given, and then a comparative analysis is made in this paper.
In terms of the principle that the ionospheric delay is at an inverse ratio to the frequency square, a new ionospheric-free
positioning method based on a double-antenna CAPS receiver is put forward. Then the hybrid differential observations and the
solving equations and algorithms for one epoch and multi epochs are deduced according to the basic principle of the method.
The method may remove the global errors in signal emission, propagation, transmission and receiving (e.g., ionospheric delay,
hardware delay, and clock error). So it is very convenient for the single-epoch solution and multi-epoch navigation and positioning,
and may efficiently improve the precision of real time CAPS navigation. Furthermore, the method can be used not only for the
geometric orbit determination of CAPS GEO and IGSO satellites and the navigation and positioning, but also for the estimation
of the tropospheric zenith delay, which is useful for the study of water vapor changes in the atmosphere. Polynomials are
used in this method to express the tropospheric zenith delay and CAPS satellite orbits within the limited time interval, which
reduces the number of unknown parameters and thus speeds the computation.
