doi:10.11947/j.AGCS.2018.20170066

Abstract

Abstract: This paper proposes a one-step solution of local tie vectors,the solution takes RP (Reference Point) and axes offsets of SLR telescope as unknown parameters,GNSS baselines network and conventional terrestrial observation (horizontal,vertical angle and distance) are combined in ITRF (International Terrestrial Reference Frame),and multiply constraint conditions are established between RP and observation marks and two axes offsets.Local tie vectors and related covariance matrices of the 3 co-located sites in Beijing,Kunming,Xi'an of CMONOC (Crustal Movement Observation Network of China) are solved with the proposed one step solution.The results show that the RMS (root mean square error) of local tie vectors is less than 2.0 mm.Besides,the differences are less than 2.0 mm compared with the traditional step by step solution,and the offsets and corresponding RMS between the horizontal axis and vertical axis are 3.8 mm,0.7 mm,3.6 mm and 1.3 mm,1.2 mm,1.3 mm,respectively.
