摘要: 电离层闪烁作为北极区域频发的一种天文灾害,会影响全球导航卫星系统(GNSS)时空服务,需对其进行有效的监测。监测电离层闪烁通常需要高采样频率(50 Hz)的电离层闪烁接收机,但其分布有限,难以提供较大区域(如北极区域)的全面监测。为此本文以1 Hz GNSS观测数据为基础,详细研究了利用大地测量趋势分离、精密单点定位和小波变换等技术提取载波相位观测值中电离层闪烁信号的相关经验参数和方法,构建了可用于监测电离层闪烁的相位闪烁因子,并利用加拿大高纬度北极电离层闪烁监测网络(CHAIN)提供的11个测站188 d的观测数据对其有效性和准确性进行了验证。结果表明,与常用的ROTI因子相比,本文所提出的闪烁因子与ROTI均能有效地探测到电离层闪烁的发生,但是本文提出的闪烁因子与电离层闪烁接收机直接给出的相位闪烁因子具有更好的相关性,尤其是在有强电离层闪烁发生的时段,这说明该闪烁因子具有更为优良的电离层闪烁监测能力。

Abstract: The ionospheric scintillation, as one of the astronomical disasters occurring frequently in Arctic regions, poses great challenges to GNSS positioning navigation and timing (PNT) services. This calls for an urgent need in studying and effectively monitoring the scintillation to overcome its adverse impact. With the capability of high frequency sampling, ionospheric scintillation monitoring receivers (ISMR) are usually required to monitor the ionospheric scintillation, but the distribution of ISMR restricts the comprehensive monitoring in larger areas (such as the Arctic region). Therefore, based on GNSS observations with 1 Hz sampling, this paper studies the relevant empirical parameters and methods of extracting the ionospheric scintillation signal from the carrier phase observations by using geodetic detrending, precise point positioning and wavelet transform techniques, to construct a new phase scintillation index, which can be used to monitor the ionospheric scintillation. Its effectiveness and accuracy are verified by 188-day observations from 11 stations provided by the Canadian High Arctic Ionospheric Network (CHAIN). The results show that, compared with the commonly used ROTI index, both the scintillation index proposed in this paper and ROTI can effectively detect the occurrence of ionospheric scintillation, but the scintillation index proposed in this paper has a better correlation with the phase scintillation index given by ISMR, especially during periods with strong ionospheric scintillation, indicating that the proposed scintillation index has better ionospheric scintillation monitoring capability.
