Method of Removal of Phase Measurement Ambiguity in Angle-Metering Navigational Apparatus of Global Positioning System

An algorithm of removal of the phase measurement ambiguity is presented for the angle-metering navigational apparatus of the global positioning system (GPS) with the multi-scale antenna system created by the collinear non-equidistant bases. The algorithm makes possible to abandon the requirement of the unambiguous measurement of the propagation difference on a small base due to involvement of measurements of the pseudo-distance. Results of the experimental study of the suggested algorithm are given.
