Abstract
The satellite clock anomalies, one of the abnormal signal factors of the GPS satellites, can have a significant impact on the GPS measurements. However, it can be difficult to detect the anomalies of the satellites clock before the range of the satellites clock error becomes bigger than the range of the other factors, due to the measurement including error of the orbit, ionosphere delay, troposphere delay, multipath and receiver clock. In order to perform quick and accurate detection by minimization of critical range in anomalies of the satellites clock, this paper suggested a solution to detect precise anomalies of the satellites clock after application of carrier smoothing filter from measurement by dual-frequency and adjustment of errors which can be occurred by other factor and the receiver clock errors. The performance of the proposed method was confirmed by comparing to the satellite clock biases which are provided by IGS.
