Global VLBI solution 2005a

March 2005

Presented here is the Geographical Survey Institute's 2005a global solution. The Batch SOLVE solution used all available multi-baseline VLBI observations at 8.4 GHz (X-band) and 2.2 GHz (S-band) from 11 April, 1980 through 28 Feb, 2005. This included a total of 3876 diurnal sessions and 4,332,385 measurements of group delay. The BATCH control file gsi2005a.cnt along with databases given in gsi2005a.arc were used to generate this solution. The output spool file is gsi2005a.spl.gz. Single combined least square solution was done.

Source positions

Positions of 653 sources were estimated as global parameters. The sources that A) were observed in two or more sessions and had 40 or more good observations or B) were observed only in one session and had 25 or more good observations were included in the group of sources whose positions were estimated as global parameters. Position of all other sources were estimated in each session individually.

Earth orientation parameters

Pole coordinates X, Y, UT1 angle, and their rate, daily correction to the nutation in longitude and nutation in obliquity were estimated for each session separately.
