  • Publication number: 20250130332
    Abstract: A system or method for determining a satellite observation for a virtual reference station can include: determining a virtual reference station location, receiving a set of satellite observations at a reference station located at a reference station location, determining a first GNSS correction for the virtual reference station location and a second GNSS correction for the reference station location, and determining the satellite observation for the virtual reference station by combining the set of satellite observations, the first GNSS correction, and the second GNSS correction.

  • Publication number: 20210006329
    Abstract: A method for calculating a position of a mobile device relative to a selected reference station of a plurality of reference stations, the method comprising: receiving satellite signal measurements associated with a first reference station; receiving location signals from a plurality of satellites; tracking a baseline between the mobile device and the first reference station using the satellite signal measurements associated with the first reference station and the location signals to provide the position of the mobile device relative to the first reference station; sending a handover request, the handover request comprising the current position of the mobile device; receiving a handover message comprising integer ambiguities for a baseline between the first reference station and the second reference station; initialising tracking of a baseline between the mobile device and the second reference station using the integer ambiguities of the handover message; receiving satellite signal measurements associated wit
