The results of a campaign to measure multipath effects on pseudorange measurements of stationary receivers are presented. The multipath scenarios, which were intentionally selected, include steep earth embankments, overhead wires, fresh‐and saltwater horizons, and railway right‐of‐way. An absorber screen was tested for its effectiveness in shielding antennas from low‐angle multipath, and its performance is reported in each multipath situation. A convenient classification of multipath effects is presented based on the periodicity of the multipath interference and the nature of the interfering surface or object. An estimate of the pseudorange multipath error is presented in each case.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
