Nonlinear regression approach for GPS multipath mitigation : from code to carrier-phase measurements by Phan, Quoc Huy

“…Multipath, where GPS signals arrive by more than one path and thereby create a range error, has remained the long-lasting major error source in GPS solutions although having been a target of the GPS research community since the day the system started operating. Seeking to understand the GPS multipath errors, this report aims to ef?…”
