Comparison of Tropospheric Horizontal Gradients Modeling Methods in LEO Constellation Augmented GNSS Precise Point Positioning by Xinyu Zhang, Wenwu Ding, Xiaochuan Qu, Hongjin Xu, Xuanzhao Tan, Yunbin Yuan

“…In comparison, the analysis of slant path delays accuracy for elevation below 10&#x00B0; shows that the directional model is more suitable for low elevation observations, but the introduction of too many redundant parameters leads to a decrease in the accuracy at high elevation angles. The LEO constellation can bring maximum 32.9&#x0025;, 12.6&#x0025;, and 27.9&#x0025; accuracy improvement for the horizontal component, vertical component, and ZTD parameters during the stable period, while 26.5&#x0025;, 31.8&#x0025;, and 34.9&#x0025; during the severe period. …”
