     abstract = "{This paper describes a refined version of the point acceleration
        approach, referred to as the refined acceleration approach,
        which makes use of K-band range-acceleration observations to
        derive high-precision monthly gravity field solutions. For
        overcoming shortcomings of the conventional approach, several
        refinements are made as follows: (1) The interepoch correlated
        errors caused by numerical differentiation are decorrelated by a
        decorrelation operator. (2) The satellite velocity is
        transformed into a function of satellite positions and dynamic
        parameters. (3) The effect of satellite position error is taken
        into consideration while building the range-acceleration
        observational equation. (4) An autoregression model is used for
        modelling the high-frequency error of K-band range-acceleration
        observations. Applying the proposed approach, Gravity Recovery
        and Climate Experiment Follow-on, abbr. GFO, observation data
        spanning the period from 2019 January to 2022 December were
        processed and a time-series of monthly gravity field solutions
        was derived and referred to as SSM-ACC-GFO where the SSM is the
        acronym of the School of Survey and Mapping, the ACC underlines
        the usage of range-acceleration and the GFO shows the data
        source. This time-series is comprehensively compared with three
        official time-series, that is, CSR RL06, JPL RL06 and GFZ RL06,
        both in spectral and spatial domain. Comparison results
        demonstrate that SSM-ACC-GFO performs comparably with JPL RL06
        and GFZ RL06 indicating that the refined acceleration approach
        has the ability of deriving high-precision monthly gravity field
        solutions.}",
