Zero Baseline

For Zero Baseline we have a term and definition in GPS.



Zero Baseline (GPS)

A Zero Baseline test can be used to study the precision of receiver measurements (and hence its correct operation), as well as the data processing software. The experimental setup, as the name implies, involves connecting two GPS receivers to the same antenna. When two receivers share the same antenna, biases such as those which are satellite (clock and ephemeris) and atmospheric path (troposphere and ionosphere) dependent, as well as errors such as multipath CANCEL during data processing. The quality of the resulting "zero baseline" is therefore a function of random observation error (or noise), and the propagation of any receiver biases that do not cancel in double-differencing.
