Data Processing at the Global Positioning System Master Control Station,
Abstract
At the GPS Master Control Station, range and delta range measurement from remote, unmanned monitor stations are processed to generate satellite navigation messages daily. Data are edited, smoothed, and processed in a Kalman filter to generate estimates of ephermerides and all system clock, solar pressure, polar wander, and tropospheric states. This processing, and some examples of typical performance measures, are described. (Author)
