     1137<p>
     1138Enter the reference coordinate components X,Y,Z of the receiver's position in meters if known. Default are empty option fields, meaning that the antenna's XYZ position is unknown.
     1139</p>
     1140<p>
     1141Once XYZ coordinate components are defined, the 'PPP' line in BNC's logfile is extended by Nort, East and Up desplacements to (example):

     1145</pre>
     1146<p>
     1147The parameters following the 'NEU' string provide Nort, East and Up components of the current coordinate displacement in meters.
     1148</p>
     1149
    11301150<p><a name="pppopt"><h4>3.11.2 Options</h4></p>
    11311151BNC allows to use different Point Positioning processing options depending on the capability of the involved receiver and the application in mind.
    11321152</p>
    11331153
    1134 <p><a name="pppstatic"><h4>3.11.2.1 Static - optional</h4></p>
    1135 <p>
    1136 By default BNC considers the rover as mobile. It means that the rover coordinates are estimated as stochastic parameters with white noise 100 meters per epoch. Tick 'Static' in a static observation situation to adapt appropriate filter characteristics for that.
    1137 </p>
    1138 
    1139 <p><a name="pppphase"><h4>3.11.2.2 Use Phase Obs - optional</h4></p>

    11401155<p>
    11411156By default BNC applies a Point Positioning solution using an ionosphere free P3 linear combination of code observations. Tick 'Use phase obs' for an ionosphere free L3 linear combination of phase observations.

     1171<p><a name="pppglo"><h4>3.11.2.3 Use GLONASS - optional</h4></p>
    11571172<p>
    11581173By default BNC does not process GLONASS observations when in Point Positioning mode. Tick 'Use GLONASS' to use GPS and GLONASS observations for estimating coordinates in Point Positioning mode.
    11591174</p>
    11601175
     1176<p><a name="pppplot"><h4>3.11.2.4 PPP Plot - optional</h4></p>
     1177<p>
     1178PPP time series of North (red), East(green) and Up (blue) coordinate components will be plotted in the 'PPP Plot' tab when this option ticked. Values will be either referred to an XYZ reference coordinate (if specified) or referred to the first estimated XYZ coordinate. The sliding PPP time series window will cover the period of the latest 5 minutes.
     1179</p>
     1180<p>
     1181Note that a PPP time series makes only sense for a stationary operated receiver.

    11621185<p>
    1163 You may like to introduce a specific ratio between the sigmas for code and phase observations. You may also like to output average position values.
    1164 </p>
    1165 
    1166 <p><a name="pppsigma"><h4>3.11.3.1 Sigma Code - mandatory if 'Use Phase Obs' is set</h4></p>
     1186You may want to introduce specific sigmas for code and phase observations. You may also like to carry out your PPP solution in Quick-Start mode or output averaged position values.
     1187</p>
     1188
     1189<p><a name="pppsigcp"><h4>3.11.3.1 Sigma Code/Phase - mandatory if 'Use Phase Obs' is set</h4></p>
    11671190<p>
    11681191When 'Use phase obs' is set in BNC the PPP solution will be carried out using both, code and phase observations. A sigma of 5.0 m for code observations and a sigma of 0.02 m for phase observations (defauls) is used to combine both types of observations.
    1169 As the convergence characteristic of a PPP solution can be influenced by the ratio of the sigmas for code and phase, you may like to introduce you own sigma for code observations which differs from the default of 5.0 m.
    1170 <ul>
    1171 <li>Introducing a smaller sigma (higher accuracy) for code observations leads to better results shortly after program start. However, it may take more time till you finally get the best possible solutions.</li>
    1172 <li>Introducing a higher sigma (lower accuracy) for code observations may lead to less accurate results shortly after program start and thus a prolonged period of convergence but could provide better positions in the long run.</li>
    1173 </ul>
    1174 </p>
    1175 <p>
    1176 Note that the 'Sigma code' you enter must be greater than 0.3 m and less than 50.0 m.
    1177 </p>
    1178 
    1179 <p><a name="pppaverage"><h4>3.11.3.2 Averaging - optional if appropriate 'Origin' option is set</h4></p>
    1180 <p>
    1181 Enter the length of a sliding time window in minutes. BNC will continuously output moving average positions and their RMS as computed from those individual positions obtained most recently throughout this period. RMS values presented for XYZ coordinates are bias reduced while RMS values for Nort/East/Up (NEU) displacements are not. Averaged values for XYZ coordinates and their RMS are marked with string &quot;AVE-XYZ&quot; in BNC's log file and 'Log' section while averaged values for NEU displacements and their RMS are marked with string &quot;AVE-NEU&quot;. Example:
     1192As the convergence characteristic of a PPP solution can be influenced by the ratio of the sigmas for code and phase, you may like to introduce you own sigmas for code and phase observations which differ from the default of 5.0 m and 0.02 m respectively.
     1193<ul>
     1194<li>Introducing a smaller sigma (higher accuracy) for code observations or a larger sigma for phase observations leads to better results shortly after program start. However, it may take more time till you finally get the best possible solutions.</li>
     1195<li>Introducing a larger sigma (lower accuracy) for code observations or a smaller sigma for phase observations may lead to less accurate results shortly after program start and thus a prolonged period of convergence but could provide better positions in the long run.</li>

     1198
     1199<p><a name="pppquick"><h4>3.11.3.2 Quick-Start - optional if XYZ is set</h4></p>
     1200<p>
     1201Enter the lenght of a startup period in seconds for which you want to fix the PPP solution to a known XYZ coordinate. Constraining coordinate components is done in BNC through setting the 'XYZ White Noise' temporarily to zero.
     1202</p>
     1203<p>
     1204This so-called Quick-Start option allows the PPP solutions to rapidly converge after startup. It requires that the antenna remains unmoved on the know position throughout the defined period. A value of 120 (default) is likely to be an appropriate choice for 'Quick-Start'
     1205<p>
     1206<p>
     1207You may need to create your own reference coordinate through running BNC for an hour in normal mode before applying the Quick-Start option.

     1215Enter the length of a sliding time window in minutes. BNC will continuously output moving average values ns and their RMS as computed from those individual values obtained most recently throughout this period. RMS values presented for XYZ coordinates and tropospheric zenit path delays are bias reduced while RMS values for Nort/East/Up (NEU) displacements are not. Averaged values for XYZ coordinates and their RMS are marked with string &quot;AVE-XYZ&quot; in BNC's log file and 'Log' section while averaged values for NEU displacements and their RMS are marked with string &quot;AVE-NEU&quot; and averaged values for the tropospheric delays and their RMS are marked with string &quot;AVE-TRP&quot;.

    1195 <ul>
    1196 <li>for a North/East/Up displacements time series plot in the 'PPP Plot' section, or</li>
    1197 <li>for operating BNC in QuickStart mode starting at a known XYZ position.
    1198 </ul>
    1199 </p>
    1200 <p>
    1201 QuickStart means that BNC operates for the period of 2 minutes in a mode where an introduced reference coordinate is constrained. The PPP solution is expected to converge within this time span. You may need to create your own reference coordinate through running BNC for an hour in normal mode before applying the QuickStart option. The following options are available:
    1202 <ul>
    1203 <li>Option 'None' means that BNC shall neither plot a time series of displacements nor start in QuickStart mode.</li>
    1204 <li>'Plot - Start position' will let run BNC in normal mode for a stationary receiver and plot a time series referred to the very first determined set of coordinate components.</li>
    1205 <li>'Plot - X Y Z' will let run BNC in normal mode for a stationary receiver and plot a time series referred to entered coordinate components XYZ.</li>
    1206 <li>Select 'QuickStart - Static' to run BNC in QuickStart mode with observations from a stationary receiver located at known position XYZ.</li>
    1207 <li>'QuickStart - Mobile' also allows running BNC in QuickStart mode. However, the receiver may leave its known initial XYZ start position after staying there for two minutes.</li>
    1208 </ul>
    1209 Default selection for 'Origin' is 'None'. Note that displacements time series plots make only sense for a stationary receiver.

     1231<p><a name="pppsigxyzi"><h4>3.11.4.1 XYZ Init - mandatory</h4></p>
     1232<p>
     1233Enter a sigma in meters for the initial XYZ coordinate componentes. A value of 100.0 may be an appropriate choice. However, this value may be significantly smaller (i.e. 0.01) when starting from a station with a known XYZ position.
