In this study, the positioning performance of different frequency combinations of BDS-3\/GPS\/Galileo in the Asia-Pacific region was investigated. The precision products of Wuhan University and the observation data of nine MGEX stations were selected to compare and analyze the B1I\\B1C\\B2a\\B3I and L1\\E1 pseudo-range Standard Point Positioning (SPP) and B1IB2a\\B1IB3I\\B1CB2a\\B1CB3I\\B2aB3I\\L1L2\\E1E5a precise point positioning (PPP) performance, while B1I\\B3I\\L1 SPP and B1IB3I PPP were investigated using BDS-2 with QZSS supplemented with BDS-3 and GPS. The experimental results showed that the positioning precision of BDS-3\/GPS\/Galileo SPP was in the order of B1C &gt; E1 &gt; L1 &gt; B1I &gt; B3I &gt; B2a, and it was not significantly improved after BDS-2 and QZSS were added. Moreover, for the PPP of different frequency combinations, the convergence speed was in the order of L1L2 &gt; B1IB3I &gt; E1E5a &gt; B1CB3I &gt; B1CB2a &gt; B1IB2a &gt; B2aB3I. After adding BDS-2, B1IB3I improved by about 11% in static mode and 27% in kinematic mode, which was similar to the L1L2 frequency combination. The positioning precision of different frequency combinations of BDS-3\/GPS\/Galileo was B1IB3I &gt; B1CB3I &gt; L1L2 &gt; E1E5a &gt; B1B2a &gt; B1CB2a &gt; B2aB3I. In static mode, after adding BDS-2, B1IB3I did not show significant improvement in the plane direction, and showed ~61% improvement in the elevation direction, and ~67% in the three-dimensional (3D) direction. In kinematic mode, after adding BDS-2, B1IB3I was improved by about 16% in the E direction, the N direction did not show significant change, it improved by ~38% in the U direction and by ~70% in the 3D direction. In general, the positioning performance of BDS-3 was slightly better than those of GPS and Galileo in the Asia-Pacific region, and it is believed that with the continuous development of BDS, its positioning performance will surely be improved further.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23135935","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,27]],"date-time":"2023-06-27T02:11:22Z","timestamp":1687831882000},"page":"5935","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Algorithms Research and Precision Comparison of Different Frequency Combinations of BDS-3\\GPS\\Galileo for Precise Point Positioning in Asia-Pacific Region"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Meng","family":"Gao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatics, Liaoning Technical University (LNTU), Fuxin 123000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhihua","family":"Cao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatics, Liaoning Technical University (LNTU), Fuxin 123000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ziheng","family":"Meng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatics, Liaoning Technical University (LNTU), Fuxin 123000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chunbo","family":"Tan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatics, Liaoning Technical University (LNTU), Fuxin 123000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8605-6536","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Huizhong","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geomatics, Liaoning Technical University (LNTU), Fuxin 123000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lu","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The 54th Research Institute of China Electronics Technology Group Corporation, Shijiazhuang 050000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"16","article-title":"The BeiDou leads the world and its wisdom shines on the world","volume":"8","author":"Xu","year":"2020","journal-title":"China Sci.
