Abstract

How to solve the multi-values and accurately detect the cycle slip of each frequency was particularly critical of dual-frequency GPS. This paper used the geometry-free phase combinations, proposed a dynamic test method to detect cycle slip outliers, which determined the cycle slip by constraining the value range of the cycle slip sequences of the dual-frequency GPS through the constantly updated its standard deviation. The dynamic test of cycle slip detection and repair method has been tested by using GPS data with sampling interval of 1s, 5s, 10 s and 15s. The method can not only solve the problem of multi-values, but also accurately detect the cycle slip values at various frequencies, whether the fixed cycle slip is added to the random position or the random cycle slip is added to the random position. Experiments with four different sampling intervals, the results showed that the proposed method of cycle slip detection and repair calculation success rate reaches 98.75%.
