Precise Orbit Determination for Multi-GNSS Satellites in Wuhan IGS-MGEX Analysis Center

Qile Zhao

Abstract: This contribution summarizes the strategy used by Wuhan University (WHU) to determine precise orbit and clock products for Multi-GNSS Experiment (MGEX) of the International GNSS Service (IGS). In particular, the satellite attitude, phase center corrections, solar radiation pressure model developed and used for BDS satellites are addressed. In addition, this contribution analyzes the orbit and clock quality of the quad-constellation products from MGEX Analysis Centers (ACs) for a common time period of 2 years (2014-2015). Multi-GNSS products of WHU (indicated by WUM) showed good quality among these products from all MGEX ACs in both accuracy and stability.
