Bingbing Duan

Bingbing Duan is a researcher at the Institute for Astronomical and Physical Geodesy at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), working under Prof. Dr. Urs Hugentobler. He is actively involved in satellite geodesy, focusing on GNSS orbit modeling, precise orbit determination, and multi-technique geodetic analysis.

Research Interests: His work centers on GNSS orbit and clock determination, solar radiation pressure modeling, ambiguity resolution, and the integration of GNSS, DORIS, and SLR data. He plays a key role in the Copernicus Precise Orbit Determination (CPOD) Quality Working Group as the lead of the TUM Sentinel satellite orbit analysis center. His research supports Earth observation missions like Sentinel-3 and Sentinel-6A.

Publication Trends: His recent publications (2018–2025) show a strong focus on improving GNSS satellite models, particularly for Galileo and BeiDou systems, using multi-frequency data and advanced bias estimation techniques. Themes include phase bias quality assessment, antenna calibration, thermal effects, and precise orbit prediction.
