we can find x y and z values.
By using this technique we get position of a point on the
surface of the earth.
19. In principle, Three satellites are sufficient for estimating the
position of a point on the surface of the earth
But, we require four satellites, because, receiver and satellite
clocks are not synchronized , and this adds as one more unknown

pseudorange measurements
Based on carrier-phase observations
and low-noise pseudo range
observations
Safely ignores small effects on its
measurements
Processing software must account for
effects as small as a few millimeters
e.g. Propagation Relativistic effects
etc.
Any antenna and multipath
environment is no cause of concern
The measurements will be affected by
any instability in the phase center of
the antenna and any multipath signals
accepted by the antenna.
The level of complexity of the hardware and software needed
by different GPS users is different e.g. Sailor and Geodeist.
26. The phase center of the antennas is the point
to which the radio signal
measurement is referred and generally is
not identical with the geometric antenna center.
Phase center is the ‘point’ from which the GPS
location is measured
Difficult to measure precisely
Changes with different factors:
# Elevation
# Azimuth
# Intensity of the satellite signal
# Frequency
Either model the error or reduce the effect of
the error by always orienting antenna the same
direction
Antenna Phase center Variation
27. The definition of the Physical Phase Centre (PPC) is
commonly defined by the location of the chipset
within the antenna.
The actual observation point on a GPS antenna is
called the Electrical Phase Centre (EPC). location of
this phase centre is represented by a mean constant
offset, from the physical point on a GPS antenna
known as the Antenna Reference Point (ARP),
GPS post-processing software takes the physical
phase centre as a reference point then applies
elevation dependant electrical phase centre
corrections during base line processing.
Antenna Phase Center variation
28. Antenna Phase center Variations
Virtually eliminated in relative positioning
over moderate baseline (<500 km) when
the using same antenna type.
Antenna Phase center Corrections (e.g.
IGS antenna Phase center tables) must
be used for different antenna type and
precise positioning
(cm).
29. Antenna Phase center Variations
Why GPS Antenna Calibration
Goal is to determine GPS antenna phase center
characteristics which provide accurate geodetic
positions.
Initial questions
What is the location of the point being positioned?
What is the factor affecting the Antenna phase
center ?

Why For Crustal Study
53. Crustal Deformation
Every crustal plate is moving in random
direction With very low speed in cm
range.
We can not measure it globally.
GNSS is only tool which can provide to
estimate low velocities of these crustal
plates.
54. Conclusion
A phase center may vary and can be
estimated
An offset and phase center variation
(PCV) must be applied to yield correct
distance to the source
Different phase centers, when corrected
for offset and PCV give identical results
There is no phase center for which PCV is
zero but can be minimized
55. Conclusion…
