  1. 3rd Asia-Oceania Regional Workshop on GNSS Nov. 1, 2011 @Jeju Island, South Korea QZSS Observation Data Available to the Public Takeyasu SAKAI Electronic Navigation Research Institute, Japan

  2. Introduction • QZSS (Quasi-Zenith Satellite System) program: • Regional navigation service broadcast from high-elevation angle by three or more satellites on the inclined geosynchronous (quasi-zenith) orbit; • Broadcast GPS-like supplement signals on three frequencies and two augmentation signals, L1-SAIF and LEX; ENRI is working for L1-SAIF; • The first QZS satellite successfully launched on Sept. 11, 2010; • Technical verification is ongoing by some research organizations. • Broadcasting ranging signals constantly: • Ranging signals are broadcast constantly and stable; Now no alert flag; • QZS-1 is in the operational phase while technical verification is ongoing; • Now need to promote rapid spread of QZSS capability to consumer equipment. • ENRI just began continuous observation of QZSS: • Measures all signals on triple frequencies except LEX; • We have decided to make observations open to the public for promotion of R&D on QZSS applications; • Daily RINEX files are publicly available for free of charge on the web.

  4. Continuous Observation • Observation conditions: • ENRI just began continuous observation of L1-SAIF signal for technical verification in October 2011; Also observes other supplement signals; • Observation is available on the web: URL http://www.enri.go.jp/sat/qzss_e.htm • Range measurements are converted into RINEX format and navigation message is formatted in EMS file; Both are slightly extended for QZSS; • Data files are stored on daily basis. Note - Sometimes there is missing data due to some reason such as power outage.

  6. Observation: RINEX Format • Extension of existing RINEX format: • The current RINEX format does not support QZSS; SV identifier is not defined for QZSS signals; • Observation is provided in RINEX 2.11 format with an extension; • For supplement signals we use “Jnn” regarding other core systems; • For L1-SAIF augmentation signal, we use “Snn” like SBAS. For QZS-1 Supplement: J01 L1-SAIF： S83

  8. Navigation Message: EMS File • Extension of EMS File Format: • Navigation messages broadcast on L1C/A-equivalent ranging signals are decoded and archived in the extended EMS Format; • EMS format is used in EGNOS Data Archive Service (EDAS); Originally contains only EGNOS broadcast messages; • Our extension: Including GPS/GLONASS/QZSS navigation messages additionally.

  10. Discussion • Is RINEX appropriate for data publication? • So far, RINEX seems most commonly used data exchange format; • Option: BINEX and RTCM 3.0 could be used (also for realtime?). • Some applications are not capable of large # of measurements: • Need degraded version of observation, for example, 2-frequency version? • Is RINEX navigation message file necessary? (Is EMS file enough?) • RINEX navigation file (*.YYn) is easily applicable to QZSS L1-C/A; • L1-SAIF message: Ephemeris message may be stored in RINEX file (*.YYh); But other messages have little option other than EMS (or similar) format; • An idea: Store L1-SAIF messages in RINEX observation file using comment record. • Does anyone need realtime distribution? • ENRI is ready for realtime distribution; • Data collection is performed in a realtime manner; • Communication line available for realtime distribution may be less capacity. • ENRI is also collecting data at some locations inside Japan.

  11. Conclusion • QZSS needs promotion: • QZS-1 is in the operational phase while technical verification is ongoing; • Need promotion for rapid spread of QZSS capability to consumer equipment. • ENRI’s contribution: • Began continuous observation of QZSS and data publication; • Measures all signals on triple frequencies except LEX; • Daily RINEX files are publicly available for free of charge on the web. • URL http://www.enri.go.jp/sat/qzss_e.htm • Proposal: • SV identifier for RINEX observation: • For supplement signals, use “Jnn” (J01 for QZS-1) regarding other core systems; • For L1-SAIF augmentation signal, use “Snn” (S83 for QZS-1) like SBAS. • Feedback your comments to: sakai@enri.go.jp
