| 5 | (1) One would expect that a new ephemeris set always comes with a later validity
|
|---|
| 6 | time tag than a previously distributed ephemeris set. However, this is not always true.
|
|---|
| 7 | Sometimes new ephemeris sets come with a validity time tag which is earlier than the
|
|---|
| 8 | validity time tag of a previously distributed ephemeris set. This is something
|
|---|
| 9 | we should consider in BNS. Gerhard observed that we dont consider this right
|
|---|
| 10 | now. The consequence is that a satellite gets lost for PPP clients because
|
|---|
| 11 | they deal with another ephemeris set than the correctors provided by
|
|---|
| 12 | BNS.

| 15 | =========================
|

| 16 | (1) NMEA GGA string is not fully compatible with the standard.
|
|---|
| 17 | The following are observations by Tamas Horvath:
|
|---|
| 18 | 1. Time tag should refer to UTC time and not GPS system time.
|
|---|
| 19 | 2. Time tag format is hhmmss.ss and not hhmmss.
|
|---|
| 20 | 3. The GPS Quality indicator field is 1 (GPS SPS Mode), which is correct, as
|
|---|
| 21 | there is no category for PPP. In my opinion the NMEA protocol should be
|
|---|
| 22 | extended by a new indicator number for PPP to make a clear difference between
|
|---|
| 23 | autonomous GNSS and PPP.
|
|---|
| 24 | 4. The HDOP value is constantly 2.0, which is obviously not real. I think this
|
|---|
| 25 | field is filled with 2.0 as a default value in BNC.
|
|---|
| 26 | 5. The Age of Differential GPS data field is not populated. I believe here the
|
|---|
| 27 | age of RTCM SSR data should be put.
|
|---|
| 28 |
|
|---|
| 29 | (2) BNC has a problem when the observation update rate is > 1Hz. Records get
|
|---|
| 30 | mixed then in the RINEX files. A 10 Hz stream to test the situation is
|
|---|
| 31 | available from GFZ caster 139.17.3.112:4080 through stream A17H.
