Abstract
Polynomial regression models are used to reduce errors in measurements of pseudorange between a GNSS satellite and a receiving station; for data compression by replacing a large number of measurements with a small number of coefficients of the model polynomial, optionally combined with modeling residuals; for extrapolating usefully accurate estimates of future range between the GNSS satellite and the receiving station; and for providing usefully accurate estimates of future coefficient values of the polynomial regression models themselves.
