Future of Radio Occultation• Utilization of multiple constellations– More occultations– Denser coverage
• Satellite clock contributions are significant to carrier phase– How stable are the GNSS clocks for time intervals of interest for RO?

Clock Stability
• Short‐term clock stability necessary for RO– Sample rates of 50 Hz used by current missions– ~100 second occultation duration
• Investigate GLONASS clock performance– Compare with GPS clock results– Time intervals between 0.4 and 100 seconds

To utilize GLONASS satellites for RO, is ground‐based compensation required to eliminate satellite clock instability?

Why GLONASS?
• Fully active constellation– 24 operational satellites
• Chipping rate– ½ of GPS (0.511 MHz)– Wider correlation peak– Potentially higher SNR
• FDMA• Less cross‐correlation

Clock Data
Must isolate the clock variation to the carrier phase of the GNSS signal
• Orbital effects– Interpolated IGS orbital data products
• Receiver clock– Single difference, three‐cornered hat
• Receiver noise– Linear model of white phase noise

Receiver Clock
• Single differencing– Differencing the carrier phase observations between pairs of GNSS satellites
– Removes the mutual receiver clock error
– Does not reveal individual satellite clock behavior

Isolating a Single Clock• Three‐cornered hat technique– Statistically isolate carrier phase from a satellite by multiplying two pairs of single differences
– Assumes independence between individual clocks

Future work• Relate errors in carrier phase to RO data products– Refractivity, temperature, pressure
– Extend mapping from Kursinski et al. (1997)
• Data collection– High gain antenna, stable receiver clock
– Expand to other satellite blocks/constellations
• GPS IIF, Galileo, Compass
– Extend collection duration
• Provide more certainty in longer term results
