3) Combination Strategy:
========================

     The AC solutions are processed using the following procedure:

3-1) The AC solutions are checked/corrected for possible format problems,
     station names inconsistencies, etc...
3-2) The AC solutions are unconstrained according to the information provided
     in the SOLUTION/APRIORI Block.
3-3) The AC solutions are aligned (using a 7-parameters) and compared to the
     IGS05 stations at the current epoch.
     ftp://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/igscb/station/coord/IGS05.snx
3-4) The AC are compared to IGS05, to each other, to the previous week
     solution and to the cumulative solution in order to identify and remove
     outliers.
3-5) The weekly AC solutions are combined and added to the cumulative
     combined solution. The cumulative combination is done to ensures 14
     parameters singularity.

     The weekly combined solution is aligned to the IGS05 of the current
     epoch using a 7-parameters transformation. The singular cumulative
     combined solution is aligned to the IGS05 of the reference epoch
     using a 14-parameters transformation and the 132 ITRF station positions
     and velocities. The IGS05 is a realization of ITRF2005.

     For more details, see:
     Blewitt, G., C. Boucher and J. Kouba, 1997, Procedure for ITRF continuous
       realization, the report of the IGS GB, presented to the IGS Governing
       Board Meeting held in San Francisco, Dec. 11.

The combination software was developed at NRCan.

4) Remarks:
===========

     ITR = IGS05.snx
     igs = igs08P1463.snx
     IGS = IGS08P04.snx

     MIT = mit14637.snx
     mit = mit1463g.snx

     BuA = IERS Bulletin A

     mit are used to quality control the weekly combination.
     gfz ngs excluded from the geocenter estimation (Sec. 5-4).

             esa  AREQ  LHAZ

     4-1) Starting with GPS week 1400, the solutions are aligned to the
          IGS05.snx realization of ITRF2005.

     4-2) Starting with GPS week 1078, UT1-UTC from IERS Bulletin A
          is included in the erp files.

     4-3) Starting with GPS week 1412, the accumulated ERP file has been
          changed from "igs00p02.erp" to "igs00p03.erp". The main changes
          are:
       1) Correction of the pole position from IGb00 to IGS05 using the
          transformation in:
             http://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/mail/igsmail/2006/msg00178.html
       2) Marginal ERP's in GPS week 1161 were replaced by reprocessed
          values.

5-1)      AC (Variance Factor)^0.5 estimates:
=============================================
           The residuals used in the estimation of the Variance Factor
           are the differences between the cumulative combined solution
           and each AC weekly solution.
           SF = (Variance Factor)^0.5 = (Chi^2/dof)^0.5
           Final(SF) = Apriori(SF) * Aposteriori(SF)
