Performance assessment of BeiDou-3 PPP-B2b real time pre-cise point positioning

Abstract To assess the performance of the PPP-B2b service, most existing studies typically store real-time PPP-B2b messages and leverage them to acquire precise satellite orbits and clock offsets. However, they often overlook potential interferences, such as occlusions and receiving delays, that may...

description Abstract To assess the performance of the PPP-B2b service, most existing studies typically store real-time PPP-B2b messages and leverage them to acquire precise satellite orbits and clock offsets. However, they often overlook potential interferences, such as occlusions and receiving delays, that may occur in real-time scenarios. Consequently, these studies fail to fully capture the real-time positioning capabilities of PPP-B2b. This study assesses real-time static and kinematic precise point positioning (PPP) solutions based on BDS-3 and BDS-3/GPS. The findings reveal that both BDS-3 and GPS systems demonstrate high signal matching with PPP-B2b, resulting in quicker convergence in real-time static PPP solutions and maintaining stable positioning accuracy without divergence. Particularly noteworthy is the higher precision observed in the north–south direction. Under BDS-3, the convergence time is approximately 26 min, with horizontal accuracy below 0.2 m, vertical accuracy below 0.4 m. Utilizing BDS-3/GPS reduces the convergence time by roughly 30% while maintaining comparable accuracy (horizontal accuracy below 0.2 m, vertical accuracy below 0.4 m). In real-time kinematic PPP solutions, based on the PPP-B2b algorithm, decimeter-level accuracy is attained, particularly in the north and south directions. The convergence time is approximately 1 h and 28 min, longer than real-time static PPP solutions, due to clock system biases. However, within the time periods after convergence and with no divergence, real-time kinematic PPP solutions achieve horizontal accuracy of 4 cm and vertical accuracy of 8 cm.
