Abstract: The primary goal of this research is to develop an algorithm based on the concept of single-station augmented precise point positioning–real-time kinematic (PPP-RTK) to address the challenges posed by insufficient reference stations or limited satellite constellations provided by reference stations. This algorithm utilizes undifferenced and uncombined (UDUC) GNSS observations, integrated with global State Space Representation (SSR) corrections and regional atmospheric corrections. In a static experiment conducted under a fixed PPPRTK scenario, the algorithm demonstrated excellent performance after convergence, achieving root-mean-square errors (RMSE) of 0.59 cm, 2.16 cm, and 2.98 cm in the east, north, and up directions, respectively. The fixed rate, representing the percentage of epochs with successfully resolved integer ambiguities, reached approximately 85%. In dynamic experiments, the RMSEs in the east, north, and up directions were 10.45 cm, 16.79 cm, and 20.51 cm, respectively, with a fixed rate of 65%.
