Referring to fig. 2, the relative orbit determination method for the formation satellite GPS/BDS easy for satellite-borne on-orbit real-time processing according to the present invention may further solve a double-difference fixed solution in a conventional RTK manner under the condition that the inter-satellite distance between a master satellite and a slave satellite is short, and then constrain a single-difference ambiguity parameter to be estimated in the relative orbit determination filter state quantity with the double-difference fixed solution to improve the short baseline relative orbit determination accuracy, specifically, the following steps a to e are added between step S9-6 and step S9-7 of the relative orbit determination method:

step a, selecting a double-difference reference star.

In order to establish a double-difference observation value, one satellite is selected as a reference satellite from single-difference observation values of each navigation system (single-difference phase observation values calculated by a GPS L1/BDS B1 single-frequency non-difference phase observation value in formula (16)), and the single-difference observation values of other satellites in the same system are differenced with the corresponding reference satellite single-difference observation values to form double-difference observation data. The selection of the reference star should have the following requirements: (1) single difference observations do not present cycle slip or gross error data. (2) The satellite of the single-difference observation is not the newly elevated satellite. (3) If the reference star of the previous epoch is greater than 30 ° in altitude, the current epoch may continue to be selected as the reference star. (4) If none of the above 3 requirements can be met, selecting the satellite with the largest altitude angle as the reference satellite from the satellites without cycle slip and not newly rising. (5) If the above conditions can not be met, no reference star is selected, double-difference observation is not formed, and carrier phase double-difference relative positioning is not carried out.

And b, transmitting the fixed ambiguity parameters.

After the cycle slip check of step S9-4, the single-difference data of a certain satellite of the current epoch does not have cycle slip, and the double-difference fixed solution ambiguity fixed by the satellite of the previous epoch is transferred to the current epoch, that is, whether the double-difference reference satellite of the previous epoch and the current epoch of the GPS and BDS changes is checked, and if so, the fixed solution ambiguity of the previous epoch needs to be combined to be transferred to the current epoch. If no change exists, the current epoch is directly transmitted to the current epoch, and the current epoch is not used as the double-difference ambiguity parameter to be estimated any more. And finally, setting the residual double-difference ambiguity parameters to be estimated.

And c, performing double-difference least square relative positioning floating point solution.

For a short baseline between a master satellite and a slave satellite, regardless of influences of ionospheric delay and tropospheric delay errors, a double-difference pseudorange and carrier phase observation equation of relative positioning of a master satellite and a slave satellite GPS/BDS can be expressed as follows:

in the formula (23), the compound represented by the formula,

And d, performing double-difference ambiguity fixing solution and confirmation.

Floating solution with double-difference ambiguity in step c

And its covariance matrix

For inputting, firstly, a least square decorrelation algorithm LAMBDA is adopted to search to obtain an integer solution of double-difference ambiguity, and then the values of Ratio, RMS and delta dR are calculated according to a formula (26).

In the formula (26), R_S,R_BResidual amounts respectively corresponding to the suboptimal integer ambiguity and the optimal integer ambiguity output by the LAMBDA method, V is an observed value residual error calculated by the optimal integer ambiguity, P is an observed value weight matrix, n is the total number of observed values, and dR is_ekf,dR_rtkThe base line length predicted by the prior relative dynamics orbit and the base line length calculated by the optimal integer ambiguity candidate combination are respectively, and delta dR is the difference value of the base line lengths of the two.

Note the book

The condition a is adopted, wherein RatioLim, RMSLim and delta dRLim are corresponding limit difference threshold values, and can be modified in an upper note mode, and the accumulated times meeting the condition a are recordedThe number is M, and the ambiguity rule for determining whether the candidate combination of the optimal integer ambiguity is correctly fixed is as follows: (1) and under the condition that the ambiguity of the last epoch is not fixed, when M is more than or equal to 2, setting all candidate combination settings of the optimal integer ambiguity to be in a fixed state, and otherwise, considering that the ambiguity is not fixed. (2) When the ambiguity of the last epoch is fixed, the test of the condition a needs to be satisfied, and the ambiguity fixed state setting to be estimated in the step b is set to be fixed. (3) If the RMS does not pass the limit difference test in condition a or the number of double difference satellites is less than or equal to 3, all the fixed ambiguity states are set to be non-fixed, i.e. the ambiguity is all searched again in the next filtering period. (4) Other cases, such as Ratio or δ dR fail the corresponding tolerance test in condition a, leaving the existing ambiguity fix-state case unchanged.

And e, fixing the double-difference ambiguity and solving the constraint.

The specific method comprises the following steps: according to the relationship between the double-difference and single-difference observation equations, the double-difference phase ambiguity observation equation can be expressed as:

according to equation (27), the partial derivative H of the double-difference phase ambiguity L with respect to the relative tracking filter state quantity can be expressed as:

wherein: i is_1×12The channel value corresponding to the ith GPS/BDS is 1, the channel value corresponding to the jth GPS/BDS double difference reference star is-1, the other channels are 0,

indicating the double-difference ambiguities corresponding to the ith GPS/BDS satellite,

representing the single-differenced ambiguities corresponding to the ith GPS/BDS satellite,

and representing the single-difference ambiguity corresponding to the j-th GPS/BDS double-difference reference star.

And finally, according to the formula (15), constraining the single-difference ambiguity parameter into a double-difference fixed solution, namely a double-difference phase ambiguity fixed solution N which is detected in the step d_DDAnd as observed quantities, processing each GPS/BDS in turn, and updating the state quantity and the state covariance matrix of the relative orbit determination Kalman filtering.
