[0002] Benefiting from the characteristics of low altitude, high speed, and low construction cost of low-earth orbit satellites, low-earth orbit augmentation of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) for positioning, navigation, and timing has a series of advantages such as strong signal strength, short convergence time, and white noise of multipath effects, and has received increasing attention in recent years. To better utilize low-earth orbit navigation signals to achieve high-precision real-time positioning and timing on the ground, the system requires users to broadcast high-precision low-earth orbit satellite orbit and clock products in real time, and evaluate the formal accuracy of the orbit and clock forms, so as to facilitate users to use the accuracy of low-earth orbit augmentation GNSS ground positioning, navigation, and timing.

[0003] The existing Dilution of Precision (DOP) index, for ground users based on the pseudo-range single-point positioning method, describes the strength of the observation model through the DOP value of the geometry of the GNSS satellites that can be received, and directly uses the DOP value and the given observation prior / posterior Root Mean Square (RMS) to calculate the formal accuracy of the position and clock error.

[0004] The current technology does not have a method for determining the DOP value of the precision factor for low-earth orbit satellite precise orbit determination and timing using carrier phase and pseudo-range observations, and cannot distinguish the difference in the DOP value of the precision factor between dynamic and kinematic orbit determination and timing, which is not convenient for describing the model strength and formal accuracy of the low-earth orbit satellite precise orbit determination and timing results.
