Precision of continuous GPS velocities from statistical analysis of synthetic time series

Abstract: Abstract. We use statistical analyses of synthetic position time series to estimate the potential precision of GPS (Global Positioning System) velocities. The synthetic series represent the standard range of noise, seasonal, and position offset characteristics, leaving aside extreme values. This analysis is combined with a new simple method for automatic offset detection that allows an automatic treatment of the massive dataset. Colored noise and the presence of offsets are the primary contributor to velocity … Show more

“…In agreement with other recent studies (Santamaria-Gomez et al, 2011;Nguyen et al, 2016), we observe that the spectral indices vary from -0.8 to -0.4, indicating a combination of white and flicker noise. Using synthetic time series analyses, Masson et al (2019) show that the simple "least-square spectrum" approach yields estimations of velocity standard errors that are reasonable for series with a spectral index smaller than -0.6 but that are underestimated for series with a spectral index greater than -0.4. The latter corresponds to only 18% of our data, 25 allowing us to have confidence in the calculated velocity standard errors.…”
