Abstract: | The success or failure of carrier phase ambiguity resolution can be predicted by means of the probability of correct integer estimation. In this contribution an easy-to-compute up-perbound of this probability will be used to investigate the limitations of the geometry-free model for full or complete and fast long baseline ambiguity resolution. We consider all possible frequency combinations in the L-band (1000- 2000 MHz) for both dual-frequency and triple-frequency systems. As will be shown, a range of frequencies can be outlined for which full and fast long baseline geometry-free ambiguity resolution results in unrealistic requirements on the measurement precision. This range of frequencies will be compared with the frequencies of the current GPS, of modernized GPS and with some of the frequencies reserved for Galileo. |
