Within the frame of the International DORIS Service, the CNES/CLS Analysis Center, previously known as LCA and renamed GRG, contributes to the geodetic and geophysical research activity through DORIS data analysis. The main work carried out in the past two years concerns the processing of the measurements collected by the DORIS-equipped satellites over 22 years, in order to provide a homogeneous series of station coordinates and Earth pole parameters for the IDS contribution to the ITRF2014. First, we brought several upgrades to the processing and the modeling. Some of them are corrective actions to issues raised during or shortly after the production of our contribution to the ITRF2008 (ground station frequency offsets, attitude laws and macromodels). Recent models have been assessed with the aim to update our analysis configuration. Among others, we adopted the time variable gravity (TVG) model EIGEN-6S2 and applied tropospheric gradients. Then we processed almost all the DORIS data collected between January 1993 and December 2014. The series of weekly SINEX solutions derived from this processing is labeled grgwd40. This new series performs better than the series produced for ITRF2008. Especially, the results discussed in this paper show a decrease of 2% of the DORIS orbit residuals as well as a strong reduction of the annual terms of the TRF scale and Tz translation which can be explained by the application of the TVG model.
