The mobile VLBI campaigns in Norway (1989–1993)
Summary Since 1989 several mobile VLBI campaigns have been carried out in Europe with a total of 14 sites occupied. The Norwegian stations at Tromsø and Trysil are the only mobile VLBI stations in Europe observed in more than one epoch, so they have produced the most interesting data from these campaigns. Tromsø is the only station observed in the two summer campaigns (1989 and 1992), while Trysil has been the winter site for MV-2 since late 1991 until the spring of 1993. In this paper we describe the mobile VLBI campaigns in Norway including the observational work and the detailed geodetic analysis performed with OCCAM V3.3. We have also analyzed a series of GPS data sets from Tromsø in order to check the reliability of the VLBI results for that station. The results reveal the need for a very careful design of mobile VLBI experiments, in particular regarding the consistency of the network and of the observation schedules, and the special care that is required in the analysis of the mobile VLBI data in order to achieve significant conclusions.
