Abstract

A first pair of a wide-lane (WL), zero-difference (ZD) bias filter and corresponding supplemental WL bias predictive filter determines the time-variant wide-lane bias for a corresponding satellite based on adaptive estimation responsive to tuned dynamic noise provided by the supplemental wide-lane bias predictive filter for each satellite. A second pair of narrow-lane (NL), zero-difference (ZD) bias filter and corresponding NL bias filter/code-phase bias filter determines the time-variant narrow-lane bias (e.g., refraction corrected (NL) code-phase bias) for a corresponding satellite based on adaptive estimation on adaptive estimation responsive to tuned dynamic noise within a narrow-lane bias/code-phase bias filter for each satellite. The electronic data processor of a data processing center is configured to provide a correction signal comprising the wide-lane ambiguities, the time-variant wide-lane bias and the narrow-lane ambiguities and the time-variant narrow lane bias.
