Abstract :
This paper describes a technique for combining satellite tracking and user receiver error statistics to compute resultant user navigation errors. In addition, an error allocation technique is developed that permits the direct computation of the percentage contributions of ground tracking, satellite and user error sources to total user navigation errors. Significant insights into the relationship between satellite tracking and user navigation accuracy are shown.
