  1. THE RELATIVE CONTRIBUTIONOFTHE ANNUALAND DRACONITIC PERIODSIN GPS STATION POSITION SPECTRA • Motivation • Time Series Analysis • Spectra and Results • Conclusions Paul Barrett, USNO/EO 2008 IGS Workshop, Miami Beach, 2008 June 2

  2. MOTIVATION • Ray, et al. 2008 • Power seen at ~1 cpy and its harmonics (possibly to 8th)‏ • Attributed to draconitic (or GPS precession; 1.04 cpy) period • Not seen in VLBI or SLR data (except annual period)‏ • Results from Fourier Analysis • Power at multiple harmonics gives a ramp function with sharp jump at fundamental period • Implies non-physical signal

  3. DISCRETE FOURIER TRANSFORM (DFT)‏ • Schuster (1905) or Lomb-Scargle (1982) periodogram • Appropriate for small datasets with even samples and gaps, or • Large (>1000 points) datasets with uneven samples and gaps • No off-diagonal terms (i.e. cosine*sine term = 0 )‏ • Generalized periodogram - Bretthorst (1988)‏ • In “Bayesian Spectrum Analysis and Parameter Estimation” • Appropriate for unevenly sampled data with gaps • 2x2 matrix - including off-diagonal terms • Student t-Distribution • Unknown errors • Marginalize (or integrate-out) standard deviation

  4. SINGLE FREQUENCY SUMMED SPECTRA • ITRF 2005 combination data • GPS station position residuals • 169 stations • >400 weekly measurements • Sum of individual station spectra • Results – two sets of periods • Annual period • And 1st & 2nd harmonic • For each coordinate • Draconitic (1.04 cpy) period • At 2nd & 3rd harmonicsfor each coordinate • At 5th harmonic for north coord • No other signals >7 cpy

  5. DUAL FREQUENCY SUMMED SPECTRA • 4x4 matrix w/off-diagonal terms • Identifies two frequencies • 3.05 cpy & 3.18 cpy

  6. DUAL FREQUENCY SUMMED SPECTRA • Identifies one frequency • Peak is along diagonal • ~6.24 cpy

  7. SINGLE FREQUENCY GLOBAL SPECTRUM • All stations combined • Only annual frequency significant

  8. VLBI SPECTRAL ANALYSIS • Each station separately, then summed • Only annual frequency significant • All stations combined • No significant frequencies

  9. SLR SPECTRAL ANALYSIS • Each station separately, then summed • Only annual frequency significant • All stations combined • Annual frequency significant in North position

  10. CONCLUSIONS • Individual GPS station position residual spectra show: • Annual periods at 1, 2, & 3 cpy • Draconitic periods at ~3.12, ~4.16, & ~6.24 cpy • No significant periods >7 cpy • Global GPS station residuals show only annual periods • Draconitic period is coherent on a per station basis, not between stations • Implies incorrect modeling of orbits during eclipse • Individual and Global SLR station residuals show annual periods • Only Individual VLBI station residuals show an annual period
