Abstract
High-precision time synchronization among nodes of the airborne-based pseudolite navigation augmentation positioning system (A-PNAS) is a crucial indicator for ensuring the accuracy of positioning services. Due to the flight characteristics and external factors’ influence, the airborne platform usually undergoes random motion. Therefore, the time-varying effect errors and Doppler effect errors will be introduced into the clock skew measurement results during the time-synchronous processing. In A-PNAS with meter-level positioning accuracy, the time synchronization accuracy (TSA) between nodes usually needs to be within 2 ns. These dynamic errors will have an impact on the TSA between nodes, which cannot be ignored. Based on the analysis of the principle of dynamic error generation and the available sensors, a multi-sensor combination method for correcting dynamic errors is proposed. This…
