Carrier phase signals are considered among the key observations in global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) and several other high-precision interferometric measurement systems. However, these ultra-precise measurements are not fully exploited when the integerness of their inherent ambiguities is discarded during the estimation process....

It is common practice to use the well-known concept of the minimal detectable bias (MDB) to assess the performance of statistical testing procedures. However, such procedures are usually applied to a null and a set of multiple alternative hypotheses with the aim of selecting the most likely one. Therefore, in the DIA method for the detection,...

In this contribution we present a review of the DIA-method to ensure navigational integrity. The DIA-method rigorously combines parameter estimation and statistical testing for the Detection, Identification and Adaptation of multivariate and multiple model misspecifications. We describe the statistical properties of the so-obtained DIA...

The best integer equivariant (BIE) estimator for the multivariate t-distribution was introduced in Teunissen (J Geod, 2020. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00190-020-01407-2), where it was shown that the BIE-weights will be different from that of the normal distribution. In this contribution, we analyze these BIE estimators while making use of multi...

In this contribution, we generalize PPP–RTK theory by allowing the transmitters to transmit on different frequencies. The generalization is based on the integer-estimability theory of Teunissen (A new GLONASS FDMA model. GPS Solutions, 2019). As the theory and associated algorithms provided are generally applicable, they apply to satellite...

The corrections needed to realize integer ambiguity resolution-enabled precise point positioning (PPP-RTK) at a single-receiver user are often treated as if they are deterministic quantities. The present contribution aims to study and analyze the effect the neglected uncertainty of these corrections, which are subject to time delay, has on...

Customary confidence regions do not truly reflect in the majority of our geodetic applications the confidence one can have in one’s produced estimators. As it is common practice in our daily data analyses to combine methods of parameter estimation and hypothesis testing before the final estimator is produced, it is their combined uncertainty...

Although ionosphere-weighted GNSS parameter estimation is a popular technique for strengthening estimator performance in the presence of ionospheric delays, no provable rules yet exist that specify the needed weighting in dependence on ionospheric circumstances. The goal of the present contribution is therefore to develop and present the...

An assessment of standalone GLONASS RTK performance is provided using its FDMA and CDMA signals. The new integer-estimable GLONASS FDMA model (Teunissen 2019), which guarantees the integer-estimability of its ambiguities, is employed. We introduce the combined integer-estimable GLONASS FDMA+CDMA model and compare its strength against the FDMA...

In this contribution, we propose a method for statistically evaluating the risk in a deformation monitoring system. When the structure under monitoring moves beyond tolerance, the monitor system should issue an alert. Only a very small probability is acceptable of the system telling us that no change beyond a critical threshold has taken...

In safety-critical applications, deformation monitoring systems are required to issue timely alerts when a deformation beyond a critical threshold occurs. Only a very small probability of failing to issue an alert when in fact one should have been given, is acceptable. This probability is referred to as integrity risk. In this contribution,...

This contribution extends the theory of integer equivariant estimation (Teunissen in J Geodesy 77:402–410, 2003) by developing the principle of best integer equivariant (BIE) estimation for the class of elliptically contoured distributions. The presented theory provides new minimum mean squared error solutions to the problem of GNSS carrier...

The key to precise global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positioning is carrier phase integer ambiguity resolution with a high success rate. On the other hand when the success rate is too low, the user will normally prefer the float solution. The alternative can be to use the best integer equivariant (BIE) estimator, since it is optimal in...

The DIA-method, for the detection, identification and adaptation of modeling errors, has been widely used in a broad range of applications including the quality control of geodetic networks and the integrity monitoring of GNSS models. The DIA-method combines two key statistical inference tools, estimation and testing. Through the former, one...

As parameter estimation and statistical testing are often intimately linked in the processing of observational data, the uncertainties involved in both estimation and testing need to be properly propagated into the final results produced. This necessitates the use of conditional distributions when evaluating the quality of the resulting...

In view of the recent proliferation of low-cost mass-market receivers, the number of network receivers and GNSS users will be growing rapidly, demanding an efficient way of data processing in terms of computational power and capacity. One way of improving the computational capacity is to decentralize the underlying data processing and distribute...

Estimability and S-systems are important concepts when dealing with rank-defect models. In this contribution, we generalize the concept of estimability to integer estimability and determine the necessary and sufficient conditions that need to be satisfied for parameter functions to be integer estimable. This is then worked out and applied to the...

We introduce a new formulation of the double-differenced GLONASS FDMA model. It closely resembles that of CDMA-based systems and it guarantees the estimability of the newly defined GLONASS ambiguities. The formulation is made possible because of our defining new concept of integer-estimability and the analytical construction of a special...

A new integer-estimable GLONASS FDMA model is studied and analysed. The model is generally applicable, and it shows a close resemblance with the well-known CDMA models. The analyses provide insights into the performance characteristics of the model and concern a variety of different ambiguity-resolution critical applications. This will be done...

In this contribution, we present and analyze datasnooping in the context of the DIA method. As the DIA method for the detection, identification and adaptation of mismodelling errors is concerned with estimation and testing, it is the combination of both that needs to be considered. This combination is rigorously captured by the DIA estimator....
