High-resolution Tropospheric Refractivity Fields by Combining Machine Learning and Collocation Methods to Correct Earth Observation Data
ACTA ASTRONAUTICA(2023)
Abstract
Signals used for Earth observation, when travelling through the atmosphere, are sensitive to refractivity; especially high spatio-temporal variations of water vapor are difficult to model and correct. Remaining unmodeled tropospheric delays deteriorate the positioning solution and therefore limit the accuracy of sensing and navigation applications. These delays are usually computed with empirical models based on ground meteorological parameters (pressure, temperature and water vapor partial pressure). However, existing models are not accurate enough for high-precision applications such as GNSS, where in consequence the so-called zenith total delay (ZTD) has to be estimated together with other unknown parameters (coordinates etc.).
