Abstract: According to the fact that there is on enough research on the comparison of noise characteristics among different components, this paper focusing on the coordinate time series of 58 reference stations in Europe for 11 years, noise analysis has been implemented using different noise model combination and the noise characteristics of each component direction are compared. From these analysis, the noise characteristics in the NEU component of each station is variable, so it is necessary to treat each component differently when analysing the physical interpretation of time series variation characteristics; the coloured noise and amplitude of the vertical component are obviously larger than the horizontal direction, which is consistent with the generally considered the accuracy of the vertical component lower than the horizontal component.
