Single Frequency Multipath Mitigation Based On Wavelet Analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Multipath is still one of the major error sources that degrades the accuracy of GPS positioning. The amount of multipath is highly dependent on the antenna's environment, which makes it difficult to isolate. Usually there is at least one in-view satellite which is more susceptible to multipath, particularly the one with the lowest elevation angle. To increase the positioning the best satellites must be selected (i.e. by least square or multipath mitigation) for computing a position. In this paper we propose an algorithm which picks up the best satellites (when there are more than four satellites in view) based on wavelet analysis for calculating a position. In this experiment, code and carrier measurements were collected in 15-minute segments by exploiting a single frequency (L1), stationary, navigation-grade receiver in a high-multipath environment. The magnitudes of these pseudoranges were often inflated by multipath error. We then post-processed the received data by applying wavelet filtering to the residuals (code minus carrier) to approximate the multipath values, and compute the receiver's position based on the selected satellites. Satellites were selected based on the residual values. To compare the results with the raw measurements, statistical elements were computed. The results showed significant improvement in variance of the estimated positions and, most importantly, a normalization of the data scatter-distribution was observed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
