 Abstract: The Sentinel-6 satellites are equipped with a dual-constellation GNSS receiver and laser retroreflector arrays (LRAs) to enable tracking GNSS and SLR signals. Integrating the LEO and ground GNSS data at the observation level is reported to be capable of improving both GNSS and LEO orbits. In this study, we developed a method to integrate ground and onboard GNSS and SLR data for Galileo and Sentinel-6A satellite orbits determination, where the Galileo and Sentinel-6A were used as colocations. Meanwhile, three weighting strategies and SLR range bias estimation methods are assessed by the quality of satellites orbits. In the experiments, data over a month is utilized for validation, the results confirmed the Galileo orbits improvement brought by the Sentinel-6A data. And it is also found that the SLR data could improve both Galileo and Sentinel-6A orbits with suitable weighting and range bias estimation strategy. The GNSS/SLR fusion method with colocation onboard also shows the potential to improve the terrestrial reference frame further.
