Springer Subject: GLONASS SLR Report Dear Colleagues, Below we present a ”GLONASS SLR Residual Analysis Report” which is similar to our ”GPS Quicklook Residual Analysis Report” which we generate on a daily basis. For this analysis we used the SLR observations of the GLONASS satellites together with our IGEX orbits (computed from GLONASS microwave observations) and the ITRF96 coordinates of the SLR sites to obtain the difference between the observed SLR ranges and the computed ranges. This report is based on the SLR tracking data from October 10-19, 1998. Unfortunately our IGEX (Glonass) orbits do not yet have the quality of our IGS (GPS) orbits which means that we do not get down to the noise level of the SLR observations. We have estimated our IGEX orbit quality to be of the order of 300-500 mm. The overall ”RMS” (last line of this report) of the GLONASS SLR Residual Analysis shows that the agreement between the GLONASS orbits and the SLR observations is about 400 mm. This corresponds quite well with our estimated orbit error. So please note that the field ”RMS” does not reflect the noise of the SLR observations! It reflects the quality of our GLONASS orbits. The CODE Analysis Center very much appreciates the enormous effort of all the SLR stations tracking the 9 GLONASS satellites (and the 2 GPS satellites!). We sincerely hope you all can ”keep up the good work”. With this report we hope to give you some useful feedback about the performance of your station. The SLR tracking of the GLONASS satellites is of great importance for the IGEX campaign. As soon as we have some more experience with both the microwave and SLR tracking of the GLONASS satellites we will try to combine the two measurement types. We hope that you find the information in this report useful. If you want more information, please feel free to contact us.

Springer (springer@aiub.unibe.ch) Processing Strategy: -------------------- - We used the SLR observations together with our IGEX orbits and the ITRF96 coordinates of the SLR sites to obtain the difference between the observed SLR ranges and the computed ranges (OMC). - A summary of the resulting OMC residuals per station and satellite pass is generated. We have tried to make it look like the CSR Lageos-1 & Lageos-2 Quicklook Reports. (It is identical to our GPS Quicklook Reports) - The summary contains: STATION ID: Station CDP number and first characters of the station name SAT PRN : The satellite number which for the Glonass satellites refers to the ”slot” number (see below). START PASS: Start time of the SLR observation pass DUR : Duration of the SLR observation pass #OBS GOOD : Number of accepted SLR observations. MEAN : Mean of the accepted OMC residuals (in millimeters) RMS : RMS of the OMC residuals around the MEAN. (in millimeters) #OBS BAD : Number of rejected SLR observations. MEAN : Mean of the rejected OMC residuals (in meters) RMS : RMS of the rejected OMC residuals around the MEAN. (in meters) - Currently only observations with OMC larger than 3 meters are rejected. - The ”MEAN” will absorb possible range biases, to a large extent time biases and part of the orbit error. At present both the ”MEAN” and the ”RMS” (around the mean) are dominated by the orbital errors. - For those of you who are note familiar with the GLONASS slot numbers here a ”translation table”: SLR
