     abstract = "{Precise orbit determination (POD) of low earth orbit (LEO) satellites
        based on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) relies on
        GNSS precise ephemeris. High-precision post-processing ephemeris
        have high accuracy, but cannot meet the requirements for real-
        time POD. At present, the High Accuracy Service (HAS) of the
        Galileo has entered the initial service stage, which broadcasts
        the orbit, clock offsets and bias corrections of GPS and Galileo
        satellites through the E6b signal of Galileo satellites. The
        receiver can obtain the precise ephemeris according to the
        corrections and broadcast ephemeris, and the HAS provides a new
        solution for LEO POD based on the global availability. In this
        paper, the quality of HAS orbit and clock offset are evaluated
        first, and the POD capability of the HAS initial service signal
        is verified using the GNSS observations of the gravity recovery
        and climate experiment follow-on (GRACE-FO) and the Sentinel-6A
        satellites with different orbit altitude. Compared to the POD
        using broadcast ephemeris, the 3D root mean square error (RMS)
        of GRACE-C satellite is reduced by 65.00 \%, and are reduced by
        48.78 \%, 62.61 \% and 45.21 \% for Sentinel-6A satellite with
        the Galileo-only, GPS-only and GPS + Galileo respectively. The
        RMS of the POD residuals in radial, along-track and cross-track
        directions of the two satellites using HAS are all in the
        centimeter-level compared to their reference orbits.}",
