In order to include the attitude file format which you would like to use you have to add<br />

these two sections according to the new format. If quaternions are used for describing the<br />

attitude in the new file format you may use the subroutine${LG}/QUAMAT.f90 to transform<br />

the quaternions into a rotation matrix. In order to make sure that all affected programs<br />

are compiled correctly it is recommended to completely recompile the software using the<br />

COMPLINK command (see Sections 23.2.6 and 23.1.5).<br />

However, if you have included a new attitude file format, it would be very helpful for us if<br />

you contacted us to be sure that this format finds the way into a new release of the <strong>Bernese</strong><br />

<strong>GPS</strong> <strong>Software</strong>.<br />

Please contact the agency responsible for the LEO – mission to get information on how to<br />

obtain access to relevant data (such as attitude files).<br />

7.7.2 Processing of Satellite Laser Ranging Data<br />

The <strong>Bernese</strong> <strong>GPS</strong> <strong>Software</strong> <strong>Version</strong> <strong>5.0</strong> allows processing of Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR)<br />

data. SLR observations may be used for <strong>GNSS</strong> or LEO orbit validation [Urschl et al., 2007].<br />

For orbit validation SLR range residuals are calculated with program <strong>GPS</strong>EST. The distance<br />

between SLR station and observed satellite, given by the SLR measurement, is compared<br />

with the distance derived from station coordinates and satellite orbit. <strong>GPS</strong>EST provides<br />

the range residuals in the residual output file (description in Section 22.10.6). In addition,<br />

the <strong>Bernese</strong> <strong>GPS</strong> <strong>Software</strong> allows for orbit determination based on SLR observations (see<br />

Section 15.3.1.2).<br />

Converting Quick-Look to RINEX Format<br />

SLR normal point data in the Quick-Look (QL) data format of the International Laser<br />

Ranging Service (ILRS) as available at the CDDIS global data center (see Section 4.12.2)<br />
