GRACE FO L1B数据情况

2019年2月GF-2数据缺失

OBC-A on GF-2 was automatically shutdown on Feb 7, 2019, and functionality switched over to the redundant OBC-B at approximately 08:32 UTC on Feb. 7, 2019. The cause of this is likely related to a bus communication fault. All science instruments (incl. MWI, ACC, SCA, LRI) were powered off as the default response to this event.

The GF2 MWI-A (comprised of USO-A (Ultra Stable Oscillator), IPU-A (Instrument Processing Unit) and MWA-A (Microwave Assembly)) was then powered on successfully. The mission resumed science ranging operations on Feb. 21, and has been collecting K/Ka-Band Ranging data continuously since then.

Following the GF2 OBC-B switchover, the GF2 Accelerometer was successfully powered on again Feb. 28, 2019 and by default powered up in Large Range Mode (LRM). LRM data will be evaluated by the SDS team to gain additional insight into its performance before transitioning the unit to the Nominal Range Mode (NRM).

2019年3月19日GF-2轨道机动

On Mar-19, 2019, an orbit maneuver was executed on GF2 to reverse the drift.【从结果来看，若不考虑轨道机动，解算结果较差】

Based on carrier-to-noise density ration observation(C/NO) of IGS receivers, global flex power operation was observed on 2019-06-20 and 2019-06-21. Flex power started subsequently for all healthy Block IIR-M and IIF satellites on June 20 between 15:18 and 17:49 UTC. C/N0 of the P(Y)-code tracking increased by roughly 10 dB for all healthy Block IIR-M and IIF satellites whereas C/N0 of the C/A-code decreased by about 2-3 dB for the healthy IIR-M satellites only. The changes in power levels are similar to flex power mode III discussed in Steigenberger P, Thölert S, Montenbruck O. (2019) Flex power on GPS Block IIR-M and IIF, GPS Solutions, doi:10.1007/s10291-018-0797-8.
All satellites returned to normal power levels on June 21 between 6:00 and 10:00 UTC. The above flex power degraded Grace-FO orbit performance by a few millimeter level.

GRACE-C: 05:29:30 to 2019-07-26 04:11:26 GRACE-C GPS hardware channel 17 put out bad data. IPU soft reset on 2019-07-26 at 04:11:26 fixed this problem. Channel 17 data have been deleted except for GPS1A.

In GPS1B processing, a phase break is now marked only at gaps > 100 seconds; previously, a phase break was marked at all gaps. This affects the GPS filtering window, since the filtering window is not allowed to include phase breaks.
CLK1B now contains additional qualflg bits to indicate if a clock correction value was extrapolated from POD (Precision Orbit Determination) clock estimates, and such extrapolated values will not be used to correct K-band
and GPS data. CLK1B values are extrapolated at, for example, IPU resets when there is no GPS data to allow
estimation of clock corrections.
