Abstract: Ionospheric error is one of the main error sources for navigation and positioning, and broadcast ionospheric models provide a simple and effective method for single-frequency users to correct ionospheric delays. In this paper, the GIM product provided by CODE is used as the benchmark for evaluation, and the accuracy of four major broadcast ionospheric models is evaluated in various aspects, aiming to provide reference for subsequent model improvement and application. The results show that:the correction rate of each model is higher in the northern hemisphere than in the southern hemisphere, and the daytime correction rate is higher than that in the night. The NeQuick model has an average service performance in the middle and low latitudes, but is significantly higher than the BDSK8 and GPSK8 models in the high latitudes, and the correction rate is about 5% higher than that of the BDGIM model.The BDSK8/GPSK8/BDGIM model has the highest correction accuracy in the middle and low latitudes, and the correction in the high latitude band is The accuracy of BDSK8/GPSK8/BDGIM model is the highest in middle and low latitudes, and the correction rate of high latitude band is slightly worse. BDGIM model performs better than other models in general, and the global range correction rate can reach 76.91%.
