Abstract: A system and method for providing improved correction information to navigation receivers includes receiving, from a plurality of reference stations at known locations, a plurality of satellite navigation measurements of signals from a plurality of global navigation satellites. A state of the plurality of global navigation satellites is computed based on the received satellite navigation measurements. Baselines, each corresponding to a pair of the reference stations, are identified. For each identified baseline, computing floating and integer values for a double-differenced integer ambiguity. Double-differenced integer ambiguities that satisfy a set of predefined conditions are identified, and the computed state of the plurality of global navigation satellites is adjusted in accordance with an integer value constraint applied to each double-differenced integer ambiguity that satisfies the set of predefined conditions.

Abstract: A satellite clock error is determined for each navigation satellite based on the pseudo-range code measurements, the carrier phase measurements, and broadcast satellite clock errors provided by a receiver network. Differences are determined between the computed satellite clock errors and the broadcast clock errors for each satellite. For each constellation, a clock reference satellite is selected from among the navigation satellites, where the clock reference satellite has the median value of clock error difference for that satellite constellation. A correction is determined for the broadcast clock error by applying a function of the reference satellite's clock error to the broadcast clock error for each satellite in the one or more constellations.

Abstract: This FDsmooth™ frequency domain code multipath mitigation technique for real-time application. Firstly, a multipath spectral estimation technique is used to provide multipath frequency spectrum analysis, which was used to bound the frequency domain region for mitigation; either a multipath model or spectral estimation on the GNSS observable data can be accomplished Secondly, a code-minus-carrier (CmC) analysis exposes the major code multipath error and its frequency spectrum, which was the basis for operation; Thirdly, a code multipath correction was formed and applied to mitigate the multipath error in the GNSS code measurement. Both the multipath mitigated code measurement and the carrier phase measurement can be utilized for the user solution, which improves performance.

Abstract: WaveSmooth™ is a technique to mitigate inherent measurement error for GNSS signals. The WaveSmooth™ technique can be applied for single-frequency or multi-frequency GNSS users. For single-frequency GNSS users, WaveSmooth™ enables smoothing of GNSS measurements, in real-time using wavelets without introducing significant ionosphere divergence. For multi-frequency GNSS users, the WaveSmooth™ technique effectively mitigates multipath error in a real-time fashion. The WaveSmooth™ techniques utilizes wavelet aided methods and operate on the GNSS Code minus Carrier (CmC) signal to mitigate inherent GNSS measurement errors in a real-time fashion to improve the performance of these GNSSs. The WaveSmooth™ error mitigated pseudorange measurement can be used, along with the original carrier phase measurement for a high performance user solution.
