Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of ionospheric modeling, and in particular to a method for constructing a global ionospheric model based on multi-source data fusion using a novel system bias estimation and weighting approach. Background Technology
[0002] The ionosphere is a crucial component of space weather, and its irregular disturbances can severely impact communication systems, positioning accuracy, and power infrastructure. As a vital parameter characterizing ionospheric dynamics and various space weather activities, accurate determination of the ionospheric TEC (Temperature Temperature Coefficient) is essential for space weather monitoring and various scientific applications.
[0003] The rapid development of GNSS technology has made it possible to acquire TEC data with wider coverage and longer observation times. However, the distribution of GNSS receivers globally is uneven. In the Southern Hemisphere and most ocean regions, the coverage of GNSS receivers is very limited, resulting in poor accuracy and reliability of traditional global ionospheric models based solely on GNSS data in areas with sparse tracking stations, such as the ocean. To improve the accuracy of ionospheric models in areas lacking GNSS data, such as the ocean, it is necessary to construct a multi-source data fusion global ionospheric model by combining multiple ionospheric observation methods to enhance its accuracy and reliability in ocean regions.
[0004] Ocean altimeter satellites cover most of the ocean region, and their onboard dual-frequency radar altimeters can acquire ionospheric TEC information along their nadir points. Furthermore, compared to GNSS receivers, Doris system beacon stations are easier to deploy on islands. Therefore, constructing a multi-source data fusion global ionospheric model by combining ocean altimeter satellite ionospheric data, Doris system ionospheric data, and GNSS ionospheric data can effectively improve the model's accuracy and reliability in ocean regions.
[0005] Due to differences in satellite orbital altitudes, there is often a systematic bias between the ionospheric TEC (Electro-Conductivity Rate) obtained by ocean altimeter satellites and the relative TEC obtained by the Doris system and the TEC obtained by GNSS. The latter can be corrected using global ionospheric maps, while the former is typically used as an unknown parameter in the ionospheric modeling process. Previous studies have often treated the systematic bias between ocean altimeter satellite TEC and GNSS TEC globally as a constant within a given calculation period. However, ionospheric electron density is not uniformly distributed globally, and this bias estimation method increases estimation errors, weakens the usability of ocean altimeter data, and causes a decrease in accuracy. Furthermore, when constructing a global ionospheric model through multi-source data fusion, variance component estimation is commonly used to weight data from different data sources. However, there are often significant differences in the amount of data from different data sources. For example, GNSS generates tens of millions of data points per day, while ocean altimeter satellites and the Doris system typically only generate around hundreds of thousands. The variance component weighting method only considers the accuracy of each data source while ignoring the huge differences in data volume between them, failing to fully utilize the data from ocean altimeters and the Doris system, resulting in limited accuracy improvement in ocean regions.
[0006] The terms used in this invention specification have the following meanings:
[0007] GNSS; Global Navigation Satellite System.
[0008] TEC: Total Electron Content;
[0009] Doris: Doppler Orbitography and Radio Positioning Integrated by Satellite. Summary of the Invention

[0050] The terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such as a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units, not necessarily limited to those explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.
[0051] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, the technical features of the various embodiments or individual embodiments provided by the present invention can be arbitrarily combined to form new technical solutions. Such combinations are not bound by the order of steps and / or structural composition patterns, but must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
[0052] To improve the accuracy of global ionospheric models fused from multi-source data, this invention provides a novel system bias estimation and weighting method to fuse GNSS, ocean altimeter, and Doris data, thereby constructing a global ionospheric model.
[0053] Please see Figure 1 The method for constructing a global ionospheric model based on multi-source data fusion described in this invention mainly includes the following steps:
[0054] Step 1: Acquire GNSS data, marine altimeter satellite data, and Doris data. Here, marine altimeter satellite data refers to the TEC data from the marine altimeter satellite, and Doris data refers to the TEC data from the Doris system.
[0055] Step 2: Construct a first global ionospheric model with a time resolution of 1 hour based on GNSS data and spherical harmonic expansion.
[0056] It should be noted that, during the construction process of this invention, models based solely on GNSS data, models fusing GNSS data and marine altimeter satellite data, and models fusing GNSS data, marine altimeter satellite data, and Doris data were respectively developed. For ease of distinction, these can be described as a first global ionospheric model, a second global ionospheric model, and a third global ionospheric model. The terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first," "second," and "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.
[0057] Step 3: Based on the k-means clustering algorithm, the first global ionospheric model constructed in Step 2 is divided into three regions, and the region to which the nadir point trajectory of the marine altimeter satellite belongs is determined. Then, the difference between the TEC data and GNSS data of the marine altimeter satellite belonging to the same region within one hour is taken as a systematic bias unknown.
[0058] It should be noted that after dividing the first global ionospheric model constructed in step 2 into 3 types of regions, it can be regarded as having 3 systematic deviations every hour. These three systematic deviations are all systematic deviations between GNSS and the marine altimeter satellite TEC. The difference is that these 3 systematic deviations may not be consistent. Therefore, it is more accurate to estimate them by dividing them into 3 unknowns. That is, the estimation accuracy of systematic deviations is improved by estimating systematic deviations by region.
[0059] Step 4: Based on Step 2, incorporate the TEC data from the ocean altimeter satellite and the systematic bias unknowns obtained in Step 3 to construct a second global ionospheric model. This second global ionospheric model is a global ionospheric model that integrates GNSS data and ocean altimeter satellite data.
[0060] Step 5: Use the second global ionospheric model obtained in Step 4 to correct the TEC data of the Doris system, and obtain the corrected TEC data of the Doris system.
[0061] Step 6: Based on Step 4, incorporate the corrected Doris system TEC data obtained in Step 5 to construct the third global ionospheric model. This third global ionospheric model is a global ionospheric model that integrates GNSS data, ocean altimeter satellite data, and Doris data.
[0062] Step 7: Based on Step 6, weights are assigned to each data source using variance component estimation, and the weighting results are used as precision factors among the data sources. The grid coverage and total data volume of each data source are statistically analyzed, and the average data volume per grid point within the coverage area of each data source is calculated. The ratio between GNSS and the average data volume per grid point of each data source is then used as a quantity factor. Finally, the product of the precision factor and the quantity factor is used as the weight of each data source.
[0063] Step 8: Based on Step 7, substitute the newly obtained weights into Step 6 to determine the weights of each data source in order to construct a global ionospheric model with multi-source data fusion.
[0064] When using the method of the present invention, GNSS data, marine altimetry satellite data and Doris data from any day can be downloaded and substituted into the above process to obtain a global ionospheric model fused from multiple sources.
