Today, the way that most countries use for energy production is not clean and continuous. The most obvious proof for that is the change in the climate. The amount of CO2 （carbon dioxide） that is caused by fossil fuel burning increases day by day and this situation creates the greenhouse effect and change in the climate. The sun is one of the best solutions to this problem. It is not only clean and continuous, but also available anywhere, anytime. However, the efficiency of a photovoltaic system is directly related to the amount of solar energy acquired by the system which means that, it is necessary to follow the sun to have a high efficient system. There are two types of trackers that follow the sun and there are several ways to build them. In this paper, solar tracker designs are examined and a new dual axis solar tracker design is given.展开更多

TWSTFT is a real-time method with high accuracy because most system errors such as orbital error, station position error, and tropospheric and ionospheric delay error can be eliminated by calculating the two-way pseudorange difference.

By comparison with MPOD clock estimations, this paper discusses the applications of the BDS TWSTFT clock observations in satellite clock measurement, satellite clock prediction, navigation system time monitor, and satellite clock performance assessment in orbit. The results show that with TWSTFT clock observations, the accuracy of satellite clock prediction is higher than MPOD. Five continuous weeks of comparisons with three international GNSS Service(IGS) analysis centers(ACs) show that the reference time difference between BeiDou time(BDT) and golbal positoning system(GPS) time(GPST) realized IGS ACs is in the tens of nanoseconds. Applying the TWSTFT clock error observations may obtain more accurate satellite clock performance evaluation in the 104 s interval because the accuracy of the MPOD clock estimation is not sufficiently high. By comparing the BDS and GPS satellite clock performance, we found that the BDS clock stability at the 103 s interval is approximately 10.12, which is similar to the GPS IIR.展开更多
