An Experimental Identification of Multipath Effect in GPS Positioning Error
Journal Title: TransNav, the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation - Year 2018, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
The analysis of the GPS multipath effects in maritime environment is constrained with the practice of traditional GPS receiver design, that prevents access to GPS signals in Base-band Processing Domain. Here we propose and validate a simple method for experimental identification of multipath effect in Navigation Processing Domain, based on spectral characterisation of time series of GPS positioning errors.
