GPS Datum Conversion and Improvement in GPS Accuracyijsrd.com
GPS Positioning has numerous applications in the field of navigation and Geodesy.GPS positioning is mainly based on the different Geodetic Datum. This paper mainly discusses the improved datum conversion equations for the conversion of World Geodetic System (WGS-84) to Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM), vice versa and the reduction of errors introduced while datum conversion. By applying the different filters like Least Squares Algorithm (LSA), Kalman Filter (KF) and Modified Kalman Filter (MKF) a considerable improvement in consistency has been observed. Comparatively Modified Kalman Filter gives better accuracy in positioning.GPS coordinates data samples are collected in different environments like heavy traffic area, tall buildings area are taken to validate the results.

Historical and Contemporary Trends in the Size, Drift, and Color of Jupiterʼs...Sérgio Sacani
Observations of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot (GRS) span more than 150 years. This allows for careful measurements
of its size and drift rate. High spatial resolution spacecraft data also allow tracking of its spectral characteristics and
internal dynamics and structure. The GRS continues to shrink in longitudinal length at an approximately linear rate
of 0°.194 yr−1 and in latitudinal width at 0°.048 yr−1. Its westward drift rate (relative to System III W. longitude)
has increased from ∼0°.26/day in the 1980s to ∼0°.36/day currently. Since 2014, the GRS’s short wavelength
(<650 nm) reflectance has continued to decrease, while it has become brighter at 890 nm, indicating a change in
clouds/haze at high altitudes. In addition, its north–south color asymmetry has decreased, and the dark core has
become smaller. Internal velocities have increased on its east and west edges, and decreased on the north and south,
resulting in decreased relative vorticity and circulation. The GRS’s color changes from 2014 to 2017 may be
explained by changes in stretching vorticity or divergence acting to balance the decrease in relative vorticity.

Relativistic Effect in GPS Satellite and Computation of Time Error Vedant Srivastava
The satellites are the integral part of our life. In current scenario, our planet is covered with
thousands of satellites. These satellites covers every aspect of communication like- navigation,
telecommunication, television broadcasting, satellite imaginary, military communications,
Space Station, Earth's weather and climate etc. The small time delay in clock implemented in
satellites cause large delay in propagating signal and it leads to tremendous loss in
communication. This Project basically deals with detection and computation of time error on
satellite clock due to relativistic effect. The time delay is based on both special and general
relativity postulated by Albert Einstein in 1905 and 1915. The detection and computation had
been done by presenting the simulations in the MATLAB environment. The focus of project is
specially GPS satellites due to the need of better and reliable navigation system in current
scenario. Using the Simulink Environment in MATLAB a P code and C/A code have generated
and tested. These code contains timing signal and synchronization signal for GPS satellites.
Synchronizing time with precise time calculation on GPS receivers, system simulation in
MATLAB from GPS satellite transmitter to receiver will be discussed here. The atomic clock
is also discussed here which is used to measure the time delay with high level of precision
(around 10 nano-second) in satellites. Satellite Tool Kit (STK) Software a package
from Analytical Graphics, Inc. is also used in the project to model the satellite and its orbit
around the planet earth. It provides very high graphics simulation and modelling. It allows
engineers and scientists to perform complex analyses of all the physical parameters necessary
for satellite designing and communication.

ANALYSIS OF GPS ERRORS DURING DIFFERENT TIMES IN A DAY IJORCS
This paper focuses on modeling the errors which normally degrade the accuracy of Global Poisoning System (GPS). The performance of the GPS is mainly affected by ionospheric errors. SiRF Star III single frequency receiver is used for collecting and projecting datum in World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS-84) co-ordinate form. To project the ellipsoidal model onto a map model, datum conversion from WGS-84 to Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) form is needed. The conversion introduces errors in the datum. The variation in the errors can be observed from day to night, area to area and also due to the seasonal changes. The datum is collected from Ameerpet region of Hyderabad, which is a heavily populated area with heavy traffic and tall buildings. The variation in the datum has been observed from afternoon to evening.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Global Positioning System (GPS)
GPS is an all-weather positioning system providing 24 hour world-wide coverage with at
least four satellites in view at any time (Milliken et al., 1990 and Wells et al., 1986). The
system has been fully operational since 1993.
GPS has become a standard surveying technique in most surveying practices. This could
be attributed to both the ease of use as well as reduction in hardware costs.
Dilution of Precision
An indicator of satellite geometry for a constellation of satellites used to determine a
position. It’s an amplification factor.
Positions with a lower DOP value generally constitute better measurement results than
those with higher DOP. A low DOP value indicates a higher probability of accuracy. DOP
only depends on the position of the satellites: how many satellites you can see, how high
they are in the sky, and the bearing towards them.
Factors determining the total GDOP (geometric DOP) for a set of satellites include:
1. PDOP (positional DOP),
2. HDOP (horizontal DOP),
3. VDOP (vertical DOP), and
4. TDOP (time DOP).
There individual formulas for each of them including GDOP are as follows:
Position Dilution of Precision (PDOP):
Measure accuracy in 3D – position. Also termed as Spherical DOP.
PDOP = (√σ2E + σ2N + σ2U ) / σ
Horizontal Dilution of Precision (HDOP):
Measure accuracy in 2D - position (Like, Latitude and Longitude)
𝐻𝐷𝑂𝑃 = (√ 𝜎2 𝐸 + 𝜎2 𝑁 ) / 𝜎
3. Vertical Dilution of Precision (VDOP):
Measure accuracy in 1D - position (Like, Height)
𝑉𝐷𝑂𝑃 = (𝜎U / 𝜎)
Time Dilution of Precision (TDOP):
Measure accuracy in Time.
𝑇𝐷𝑂𝑃 = (𝜎T / 𝜎)
Geometric Dilution of Precision (GDOP):
Measure accuracy in 3D – position and time.
GDOP = (√σ2E + σ2N + σ2U + σ2T ) / σ
Where,
σ2E = C0-Variance of East-components
σ2N = Co-Variance of North-components
σ2U = Co-Variance of Up-components
σ2T = Co-Variance of Time
σ = Collective standard deviation of pseudo-range, residual model, receiver noise,
satellite clock, ephemeris, multi-path, selective availability, and atmospheric error (in
terms of distance) OR UERE (User Equivalent Residual Error Matrix)
AND,
To obtain the position and time error variances, the covariance matrix of the
position and time correction errors is computed. This matrix has the form.
Where, Vx, Vy, Vz, and VT are the position and time variances and the off-diagonal
elements are functions of the correlations between the errors.
