Quick Recap on Australia’s NPI Plan
A national positioning capability is a key component of Australia’s future economy
Hence Australian Federal Government interest

Quick Recap on Australia’s NPI Plan
Australian government developed a National Positioning Infrastructure (NPI) Plan
Led by Geoscience Australia
Whole-of-Government approach
Recognises the importance of multi-GNSS Mitigates total reliance on GPS Anticipates improved
positioning capabilities through access to more GNSS signals/satellites

Building Australia’s NPI
The three ‘easy’ steps towards building an NPI
National coordination is hard
But the move to multi-GNSS introduces additional challenges

History of Multi-GNSS at Geoscience Australia
Since 2010, progressively upgrading the national (ARGN+AuScope) network to GPS+GLONASS+others
Since 2010, hosting a QZSS master control station at Mount Stromlo
In 2013, regional multi-GNSS data sharing agreement with JAXAQZSS Monitor Station – Mount Stromlo Canberra

Deploying 10 Multi-GNSS Septentrio receivers in 2013-14
CRCSI, Curtin University ionospheric scintillation experiments
Ongoing laser tracking of retro-reflector equipped GPS, GLONASS, COMPASS, Galileo, QZSS satellites

National/Regional Multi-GNSS Tracking – July 2013
![Page 9: What are the issues with Multi-GNSS Enabling the National Positioning Infrastructure? John Dawson and Gary Johnston Earth Monitoring and Hazards Group](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070307/551b5822550346d41a8b639d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Upgrading our network is a multi-year project
![Page 10: What are the issues with Multi-GNSS Enabling the National Positioning Infrastructure? John Dawson and Gary Johnston Earth Monitoring and Hazards Group](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070307/551b5822550346d41a8b639d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR)
SLR, Mount Stromlo, Canberra
GNSS (cm-level) orbits can be validated using SLR
SLR observations of GNSS have made important contribution to satellite force modelling
Independent orbit accuracy assessment

Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR)
International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS) tracking priorities as of 1 July 2013
GPS: gps36
QZSS: qzs1
COMPASS: compassm3, compassi3, compassi5, compassg1
GLONASS: glonass129, glonass130, glonass102, glonass109, glonass110
Galileo: galileo104, galileo103, galileo101, galileo102, giovea
Challenge: additional tracking of GNSS using the same SLR resources

Network Operations
UNAVCO TEQC software
software developed and supported at UNAVCO for “translation, editing, quality check” of GNSS data
Used extensively in the IGS community
TEQC built into many internal Geoscience Australia data management and quality assurance processes
TEQC is limited to RINEX 2.x and will not be upgraded to RINEX 3
RINEX 2.x doesn’t support the complexities of multi-GNSS
Re-engineering GA’s data management and quality assurance processes while maintaining normal operations is not a trivial task
![Page 13: What are the issues with Multi-GNSS Enabling the National Positioning Infrastructure? John Dawson and Gary Johnston Earth Monitoring and Hazards Group](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070307/551b5822550346d41a8b639d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Communications Issues
More signals and data
Emergence of supported multi-GNSS formats has been slow
Long-term (data limited) contracts
Often share links with other Geoscience Australia projects to keep costs lower
Australian Tsunami Warning System (ATWS)
Carefully manage communication saturation
Nauru VSAT
Norseman Next-g

Global Reference Frame IssuesAntenna Change
1, 5, 15 mm (ENU)
IGS Reference Frame Core Stations

GNSS Antenna Calibrations
Antenna hardware (elements and preamplifiers) cause phase advance and delay
Phase advance and delay changes cause range bias and consequently impact position determination
Antenna type/model and individual antenna dependent
![Page 16: What are the issues with Multi-GNSS Enabling the National Positioning Infrastructure? John Dawson and Gary Johnston Earth Monitoring and Hazards Group](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070307/551b5822550346d41a8b639d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
GNSS Antenna Calibrations
Current capability based around L1 and L2 on GPS + all GLONASS
New antennas
New signals and frequencies present challenges
No L5 GPS

Multi-GNSS Analysis
No Australian ‘operational’ sovereign capability to process GNSS
No communications infrastructure to deliver precise corrections – any where in Australia and its maritime jurisdictions
