Abstract

See full text

A first plurality of differences (first differences or second differences) of carrier phase measurements of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals corresponding to a first measurement epoch is received. A plurality of differences of carrier phase ambiguities of the first plurality of differences of carrier phase measurements is resolved. A first fixed position of the rover is computed. A first plurality of sub-corrections is computed based at least in part on the first fixed position of the rover, a position of the base, a position of each specific GNSS satellite, and the first plurality of differences of carrier phase measurements. The first plurality of sub-corrections is then used to reduce the processing time for ambiguity resolution of carrier phase measurements in subsequent measurement epochs. The sub-corrections can be smoothed, aged, or smoothed and aged.
