On June 23, 2020, the last BDS-3 satellite was launched, which means that the China BDS finished its global system construction. The BDS-3 adopts a new generation global broadcast ionospheric delay correction model (BDGIM) for the single frequency ionospheric delay correction. This paper describes the performance of BDGIM during the period before and after the establishment of the BDS-3 system, in terms of the accuracy of ionospheric delay correction, BDS single-frequency pseudorange positioning and the broadcast model coefficients. To access the performance of BDGIM, the high-precision global ionospheric map (GIM) and the measured ionospheric electron content (TEC) data are selected as references. The accuracy of GPS Klobuchar model and the BDS-2 Klobuchar model are also analyzed. The results show that the accuracy of ionospheric delay correction of the BDGIM did not change significantly before and after the completion of the BDS-3 constellation. Taking the final GIM product released by the International GNSS Service (IGS) as a reference, the ionospheric correction percentages of the BDGIM model in China, the Asia-Pacific and global regions reached 84.5%、74.6% and 64.4%, respectively. Taking the ionospheric TEC measured by BDS and GPS data of 83 global GNSS stations as a reference, the ionospheric correction percentages of BDGIM in China,Asia-Pacific and global regions are 74.3%、70.5% and 68.6%, respectively. When the BDGIM model is applied to BDS single-frequency pseudorange positioning, the three-dimensional positioning accuracy of 2.22、2.66 and 2.96 m has been achieved in China, Asia-Pacific and the global regions, respectively. Different evaluation results show that the average correction accuracy of the BDGIM model is superior to the BDS Klobuchar model and the GPS Klobuchar model.
