Gurtner and G. Mader in the CSTG GPS Bulletin of September/October 1990. The main reason for a revision is the new treatment of antispoofing data by the RINEX format (see chapter 7). Chapter 4 gives a recommendation for data compression procedures, especially useful when large amounts of data are exchanged through computer networks. In Table A3 in the original paper the definiton of the "PGM / RUN BY / DATE" navigation header record was missing, although the example showed it. The redefinition of AODE/AODC to IODE/IODC also asked for an update of the format description. For consistency reasons we also defined a Version 2 format for the Meteorological Data files (inclusion of a END OF HEADER record and an optional MARKER NUMBER record). The slight modification (or rather the definition of a bit in the Loss of Lock Indicator unused so far) to flag AS data is so small a change that we decided to NOT increase the version number! 0.3 Later Revisions * URA Clarification (10-Dec-93): The user range accuracy in the Navigation Message File did not contain a definition of the units: There existed two ways of interpretation: Either the 4 bit value from the original message or the converted value in meters according to GPS ICD-200. In order to simplify the interpretation for the user of the RINEX files I propose the bits to be converted into meters prior to RINEX file creation. * GLONASS Extensions: In March 1997 a proposal for extensions to the current RINEX definitions based on experiences collected with GLONASS only and mixed GPS/GLONASS data files was circulated among several instrument manufacturers and software developers. The results of the call for comments have been worked into this document. A separate document (glonass.txt) summarizes just the necessary extensions. * A blank satellite identifier is allowed in pure GPS files only * Met sensor description and position records were added to facilitate the precise use of met values. * Description and examples for wavelength factors and their temporary changes (bit 1 of LLI) clarified. * The RINEX documentation distributed in spring 1997 contained definitions for the GLONASS satellite clock offset and drift with the intention to have them defined identically to the GPS values. Unfortunately the GLONASS Interface Document consulted had a sign error in one of the formulae. The values should be stored into the RINEX file as -TauN, +GammaN, -TauC. The original definition asked for -TauN, -GammaN, +TauC. See paragraph 8.2. To avoid problems with files created with the original definitions a real valued version number (2.01) has been introduced for GLONASS nav mess files. * IGS decided to use the Hatanaka compression scheme for RINEX observation files. Below the corresponding RINEX file name conventions are included as recommendations. The DOS naming (extension .yyE) was wrongly set to .yyY in the March 1998 version of the document. * GPS week: The GPS week number in all RINEX files is a continuous number not affected by the 1024 roll-over, it runs from 1023 over 1024 to 1025 etc. * A descrepancy between the definition of the header line fields of met sensor description and position in Table A5 and the example in Table A9 was removed. The latter was correct. * Clarification for phase data format overflows: Add or subtract a suitable number of cycles, set LLI flag. * Clarification for the GLONASS satellite identifier: "Almanac number" was somewhat ambiguous. It has been replaced by "slot number" within the satellite constellation. 0.4 Version 2.10 Modifications The modifications leading to Version 2.10 include: - Fractional version number - Zero padding of 2-digit year values (years 2000-2009 --> 00-09) - Field length of time of first obs (1/10 microsecond resolution) - Non-integer sampling rate (INTERVAL header record) - Header records now allowed after all epoch flags >1 - Additional obs types in obs files: S1, S2 (raw signal strength values) - Receiver clock offset header line to clarify applied corrections - Default wavelength factor header line mandatory - Inmarsat GPS payloads: New satellite system definition, new nav mess files - Curve fit interval in GPS nav mess file - Redefinition of SV health value in GPS nav mess file - Additional obs types in met files (ZD, ZT) 0.5 Version 2.10 Revisions * "Header records now allowed after all epoch flags >2" in paragraph 0.4 should read ">1" * The original intention of the RINEX format was to allow for variable record lengths of the ASCII files to minimize the file size. Empty fields or unknown values can either be represented by zeroes or blank space. Most RINEX converters removed trailing blank to further reduce the file size. The documentation was not clear enough to explicitely allow for this practice (paragraphs 2, 5.3, 9.1). * The time system identifier of GPS observations generated by GEO payloads defaults to GPS (explicitly stated now in paragraph 9.1) * The time system identifier in the TIME OF LAST OBS header record has to be identical to the one in the TIME OF FIRST OBS record * Clarification of Table A2 to be compatible with examples of Table A7: For event flags without significant epoch the epoch fields can be left blank. Table A6: Format for epoch contained obvious errors * Clarification of the floating point exponent format in navigation message files (two digits, E,e,D,d letters) 0.6 Version 2.12 Modifications | | The modifications leading to Version 2.11 include: | | - Definition of the Galileo satellite system code | - Definition of the frequency numbers for Galileo and new GPS observables | - If possible a definition for Galileo broadcast navigation message files | will be included at a later stage | 1. THE PHILOSOPHY OF RINEX The first proposal for the "Receiver Independent Exchange Format" RINEX has been developed by the Astronomical Institute of the University of Berne for the easy exchange of the GPS data to be collected during the large European GPS campaign EUREF 89, which involved more than 60 GPS receivers of 4 different manufacturers. The governing aspect during the development was the following fact: Most geodetic processing software for GPS data use a well-defined set of observables: - the carrier-phase measurement at one or both carriers (actually being a measurement on the beat frequency between the received carrier of the satellite signal and a receiver-generated reference frequency). - the pseudorange (code) measurement, equivalent to the difference of the time of reception (expressed in the time frame of the receiver) and the time of transmission (expressed in the time frame of the satellite) of a distinct satellite signal. - the observation time being the reading of the receiver clock at the instant of validity of the carrier-phase and/or the code measurements. Usually the software assumes that the observation time is valid for both the phase AND the code measurements, AND for all satellites observed. Consequently all these programs do not need most of the information that is usually stored by the receivers: They need phase, code, and time in the above mentioned definitions, and some station-related information like station name, antenna height, etc. 2. GENERAL FORMAT DESCRIPTION Currently the format consists of six ASCII file types: 1. Observation Data File 2. Navigation Message File 3. Meteorological Data File 4. GLONASS Navigation Message File 5. GEO Navigation Message File 6. Satellite and Receiver Clock Date File 7. SBAS Broadcast Data File The format definition of the clock files has been published in 1998 in a separate document by Jim Ray and Werner Gurtner, available at the IGS Central Bureau Information System: ftp://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/igscb/data/format/rinex_clock.txt The format definition of the Space-based augmentation system (SBAS) broadcast data file has been published in 2004 by Norbert Suard, Werner Gurtner and Lou Estey, available at the IGS Central Bureau Information System: ftp://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/igscb/data/format/geo_sbas.txt Each file type consists of a header section and a data section. The header section contains global information for the entire file and is placed at the beginning of the file. The header section contains header labels in columns 61-80 for each line contained in the header section. These labels are mandatory and must appear exactly as given in these descriptions and examples. The format has been optimized for mimimum space requirements independent from the number of different observation types of a specific receiver by indicating in the header the types of observations to be stored. In computer systems allowing variable record lengths the observation records may be kept as short as possible. Trailing blanks can be removed from the records. The maximum record length is 80 bytes per record. Each Observation file and each Meteorological Data file basically contain the data from one site and one session. RINEX Version 2 also allows to include observation data from more than one site subsequently occupied by a roving receiver in rapid static or kinematic applications. Although Version 2 allows to insert header records into the data field we do not recommend to concatenate data of more than one receiver (or antenna) into the same file, even if the data do not overlap in time. If data from more than one receiver has to be exchanged it would not be economical to include the identical satellite messages collected by the different receivers several times. Therefore the Navigation Message File from one receiver may be exchanged or a composite Navigation Message File created containing non-redundant information from several receivers in order to make the most complete file. The format of the data records of the RINEX Version 1 Navigation Message file is identical to the former NGS exchange format. The actual format descriptions as well as examples are given in the Tables at the end of the paper. 3. DEFINITION OF THE OBSERVABLES GPS observables include three fundamental quantities that need to be defined: Time, Phase, and Range. TIME: The time of the measurement is the receiver time of the received signals. It is identical for the phase and range measurements and is identical for all satellites observed at that epoch. It is expressed in GPS time (not Universal Time). PSEUDO-RANGE: The pseudo-range (PR) is the distance from the receiver antenna to the satellite antenna including receiver and satellite clock offsets (and other biases, such as atmospheric delays): PR = distance + c * (receiver clock offset - satellite clock offset + other biases) so that the pseudo-range reflects the actual behavior of the receiver and satellite clocks. The pseudo-range is stored in units of meters. See also clarifications for pseudoranges in mixed GPS/GLONASS files in chapter 8.1. PHASE: The phase is the carrier-phase measured in whole cycles. The half-cycles | measured by sqaring-type receivers must be converted to whole cycles and | flagged by the wavelength factor in the header section (GPS only). | The phase changes in the same sense as the range (negative doppler). The phase observations between epochs must be connected by including the integer number of cycles. The phase observations will not contain any systematic drifts from intentional offsets of the reference oscillators. The observables are not corrected for external effects like atmospheric refraction, satellite clock offsets, etc. If the receiver or the converter software adjusts the measurements using the real-time-derived receiver clock offsets dT(r), the consistency of the 3 quantities phase / pseudo-range / epoch must be maintained, i.e. the receiver clock correction should be applied to all 3 observables: Time(corr) = Time(r) - dT(r) PR(corr) = PR(r) - dT(r)*c phase(corr) = phase(r) - dT(r)*freq DOPPLER: The sign of the doppler shift as additional observable is defined as usual: Positive for approaching satellites. 4. THE EXCHANGE OF RINEX FILES: We recommend using the following naming convention for RINEX files: ssssdddf.yyt | | | | | | | | | +-- t: file type: | | | | O: Observation file | | | | N: GPS Navigation file | | | | M: Meteorological data file | | | | G: GLONASS Navigation file | | | | L: Galileo Navigation file | | | | | H: Geostationary GPS payload nav mess file | | | | B: Geo SBAS broadcast data file | | | | (separate documentation) | | | | C: Clock file (separate documentation) | | | | | | | +--- yy: two-digit year | | +----- f: file sequence number/character within day | | daily file: f = 0 | | hourly files: | | f = a: 1st hour 00h-01h; f = b: 2nd hour 01h-02h; ... ;| | | f = x: 24th hour 23h-24h | | | | +------- ddd: day of the year of first record | +----------- ssss: 4-character station name designator When data transmission times or storage volumes are critical we recommend compressing the files prior to storage or transmission using the UNIX "compress" und "uncompress" programs. Compatible routines are available on VAX/VMS and PC/DOS systems, as well.

RINEX VERSION 2 FEATURES The following section contains features that have been introduced for RINEX Version 2: 5.1 Satellite Numbers: Version 2 has been prepared to contain GLONASS or other satellite systems' observations. Therefore we have to be able to distinguish the satellites of the different systems: We precede the 2-digit satellite number with a system identifier. snn s: satellite system identifier G or blank : GPS R : GLONASS S : Geostationary signal payload E : Galileo | nn: - PRN (GPS, Galileo), slot number (GLONASS) | - PRN-100 (GEO) Note: G is mandatory in mixed GPS/GLONASS/Galileo files | (blank default modified in April 1997) 5.2 Order of the Header Records: As the record descriptors in columns 61-80 are mandatory, the programs reading a RINEX Version 2 header are able to decode the header records with formats according to the record descriptor, provided the records have been first read into an internal buffer. We therefore propose to allow free ordering of the header records, with the following exceptions: - The "RINEX VERSION / TYPE" record must be the first record in a file - The default "WAVELENGTH FACT L1/2" record must precede all records defining | wavelength factors for individual satellites - The "# OF SATELLITES" record (if present) should be immediately followed by the corresponding number of "PRN / # OF OBS" records. (These records may be handy for documentary purposes. However, since they may only be created after having read the whole raw data file we define them to be optional. 5.3 Missing Items, Duration of the Validity of Values Items that are not known at the file creation time can be set to zero or blank or the respective record may be completely omitted. Consequently items of missing header records will be set to zero or blank by the program reading RINEX files. Trailing blanks may be truncated from the record. Each value remains valid until changed by an additional header record. 5.4 Event Flag Records The "number of satellites" also corresponds to the number of records of the same epoch followed. Therefore it may be used to skip the appropriate number of records if certain event flags are not to be evaluated in detail. 5.5 Receiver Clock Offset A large number of users asked to optionally include a receiver-derived clock offset into the RINEX format. In order to remove uncertainties if the data (epoch, pseudorange, phase) have been previously corrected or not by the reported clock offset, RINEX Version 2.10 requests a clarifying (new) header record. It would then be possible to reconstruct the original observations if necessary. As the output format for the receiver-derived clock offset is limited to nanoseconds the offset should be rounded to the nearest nanosecond before it is used to correct the observables in order to guarantee correct reconstruction. 6. ADDITIONAL HINTS AND TIPS 6.1 Versions Programs developed to read RINEX files have to verify the version number. Files of newer versions may look different even if they do not use any of the newer features 6.2 Leading Blanks in CHARACTER fields We propose that routines to read RINEX Version 2 files automatically delete leading blanks in any CHARACTER input field. Routines creating RINEX Version 2 files should also left-justify all variables in the CHARACTER fields. 6.3 Variable-length Records DOS, and other, files may have variable record lengths, so we recommend to first read each observation record into a 80-character blank string and decode the data afterwards. In variable length records, empty data fields at the end of a record may be missing, especially in the case of the optional receiver clock offset. 6.4 Blank Fields In view of future modifications we recommend to carefully skip any fields currently defined to be blank (Format fields nX), because they may be assigned to new contents in future versions. 6.5 2-Digit Years RINEX version 2 stores the years of data records with two digits only. The header of observation files contains a TIME OF FIRST OBS record with the full four-digit year, the GPS nav messages contain the GPS week numbers. From these two data items the unambiguous year can easily be reconstructed. A hundred-year ambiguity occurs in the met data and GLONASS and GEO nav messages: Instead of introducing a new TIME OF FIRST OBS header line it is safeto stipulate that any two-digit years in RINEX Version 1 and Version 2.xx files are understood to represent 80-99: 1980-1999 00-79: 2000-2079 Full 4-digit year fields could then be defined by a future RINEX version 3. 6.6 Fit Interval Bit 17 in word 10 of subframe 2 is a "fit interval" flag which indicates the curve-fit interval used by the GPS Control Segment in determining the ephemeris parameters, as follows (see ICD-GPS-200, 20.3.3.4.3.1): 0 = 4 hours 1 = greater than 4 hours. Together with the IODC values and Table 20-XII the actual fit interval can be determined. The second value in the last record of each message shall contain the fit interval in hours determined using IODC, fit flag, and Table 20-XII, according to the Interface Document ICD-GPS-200. 6.7 Satellite Health The health of the signal components (bits 18 to 22 of word three in subframe one) are now (Version 2.10) included into the health value reported in the second field of the sixth nav mess records. A program reading RINEX files could easily decide if bit 17 only or all bits (17-22) have been written: RINEX Value: 0 Health OK RINEX Value: 1 Health not OK (bits 18-22 not stored) RINEX Value: >32 Health not OK (bits 18-22 stored) 6.8 Transmission Time of Message (Navigation message file) The transmission time of message can be shortly before midnight Saturday/Sunday, the TOE and TOC of the message already in the next week. As the reported week in the RINEX nav message (BROADCAST ORBIT - 5 record) goes with ToE (this is different from the GPS week in the original satellite message!), the transmission time of message should be reduced by 604800 (i.e., will become negative) to also refer to the same week. 7. RINEX UNDER ANTISPOOFING (AS) Some receivers generate code delay differences between the first and second frequency using cross-correlation techniques when AS is on and may recover the phase observations on L2 in full cycles. Using the C/A code delay on L1 and the observed difference it is possible to generate a code delay observation for the second frequency. Other receivers recover P code observations by breaking down the Y code into P and W code. Most of these observations may suffer from an increased noise level. In order to enable the postprocessing programs to take special actions, such AS-infected observations are flagged using bit number 2 of the Loss of Lock Indicators (i.e. their current values are increased by 4). 8. GLONASS Extensions 8.1 RINEX Observation File 8.1.1 Time System Identifier The original RINEX Version 2 needed one major supplement, the explicit definition of the time system: GLONASS is basically running on UTC (or, more precisely, GLONASS system time linked to UTC(SU)), i.e. the time tags are given in UTC and not GPS time. In order to remove possible misunderstandings and ambiguities, the header records "TIME OF FIRST OBS" and (if present) "TIME OF LAST OBS" in GLONASS and GPS observation files _can_, in mixed GLONASS/GPS observation files _must_ contain a time system identifier defining the system that all time tags in the file are referring to: "GPS" to identify GPS time, "GLO" to identify the GLONASS UTC time system. Pure GPS files default to GPS and pure GLONASS files default to GLO. Format definitions see Table A1. Hence, the two possible time tags differ by the current number of leap seconds. In order to have the current number of leap seconds available we recommend to include a LEAP SECOND line into the RINEX header. If there are known non-integer biases between the "GPS receiver clock" and "GLONASS receiver clock" in the same receiver, they should be applied. In this case the respective code and phase observations have to be corrected, too (c * bias if expressed in meters). Unknown such biases will have to be solved for during the post processing The small differences (modulo 1 second) between GLONASS system time, UTC(SU), UTC(USNO) and GPS system time have to be dealt with during the post-processing and not before the RINEX conversion. It may also be necessary to solve for remaining differences during the post-processing. 8.1.2 Pseudorange Definition The pseudorange (code) measurement is defined to be equivalent to the difference of the time of reception (expressed in the time frame of the receiver) and the time of transmission (expressed in the time frame of the satellite) of a distinct satellite signal. If a mixed-mode GPS/GLONASS receiver refers all pseudorange observations to one receiver clock only, - the raw GLONASS pseudoranges will show the current number of leap seconds between GPS time and GLONASS time if the receiver clock is running in the GPS time frame - the raw GPS pseudoranges will show the negative number of leap seconds between GPS time and GLONASS time if the receiver clock is running in the GLONASS time frame In order to avoid misunderstandings and to keep the code observations within the format fields, the pseudoranges must be corrected in this case as follows: PR(GPS) := PR(GPS) + c * leap_seconds if generated with a receiver clock running in the GLONASS time frame PR(GLO) := PR(GLO) - c * leap_seconds if generated with a receiver clock running in the GPS time frame to remove the contributions of the leap seconds from the pseudoranges. "leap_seconds" is the actual number of leap seconds between GPS and GLONASS (UTC) time, as broadcast in the GPS almanac and distributed in Circular T of BIPM. 8.1.3 More Than 12 Satellites per Epoch The format of the epoch / satellite line in the observation record part of the RINEX Observation files has only been defined for up to 12 satellites per epoch. We explicitly define now the format of the continuation lines, see Table A2. 8.2 RINEX Navigation Files for GLONASS As the GLONASS navigation message differs in contents from the GPS message too much, a special GLONASS navigation message file format has been defined. The header section and the first data record (epoch, satellite clock information) is similar to the GPS navigation file. The following records contain the satellite position, velocity and acceleration, the clock and frequency biases as well as auxiliary information as health, satellite frequency (channel), age of the information. The corrections of the satellite time to UTC are as follows: GPS : Tutc = Tsv - af0 - af1 *(Tsv-Toc) - ... - A0 - ... - leap_sec GLONASS: Tutc = Tsv + TauN - GammaN*(Tsv-Tb) + TauC *** In order to use the same sign conventions for the GLONASS corrections as in the GPS navigation files, the broadcast GLONASS values are stored as: -TauN, +GammaN, -TauC. The time tags in the GLONASS navigation files are given in UTC (i.e. _not_ Moscow time or GPS time). File naming convention: See above. 9. RINEX Extensions for Geostationary Satellites (GPS Signal Payloads) With the implementation of GNSS programs, GPS-like ranging measurements can be performed on geostationary navigation payloads. RINEX Version 2.10 defines the necessary extensions to handle such data in RINEX files for data exchange and postprocessing purposes. 9.1 RINEX Observation Files for GEO Satellites A new satellite system identifier has been defined for the geostationary GPS signal payloads: "S", to be used in the RINEX VERSION / TYPE header line and in the satellite identifier 'snn', nn being the GEO PRN number minus 100. e.g.: PRN = 120 --> 'snn' = "S20" In mixed dual frequency GPS satellite / single frequency GEO payload observation files the fields for the second frequency observations of GEO satellites remain blank, are set to zero values or (if last in the record) can be truncated. The time system identifier of GEO satellites generating GPS signals defaults to GPS time. 9.2 RINEX Navigation Message Files for GEO Satellites As the GEO broadcast orbit format differs from the GPS message a special GEO navigation message file format has been defined which is nearly identical with the GLONASS nav mess file format. The header section contains informations about the generating program, comments, and the difference between the GEO system time and UTC. The first data record contains the epoch and satellite clock information, the following records contain the satellite position, velocity and acceleration and auxiliary information such as health, age of the data, etc. The time tags in the GEO navigation files are given in the GPS time frame, i.e. not UTC. The corrections of the satellite time to UTC are as follows: GEO : Tutc = Tsv - aGf0 - aGf1 *(Tsv-Toe) - W0 - leap_sec W0 being the correction to transform the GEO system time to UTC. Toe, aGf0, aGf1 see below in the format definition tables. The "Transmission Time of Message" (PRN / EPOCH / SV CLK header record) is | expressed in GPS seconds of the week. It marks the beginning of the message | transmission. It has to refer to the same GPS week as the "Epoch of | Ephemerides". It has to be adjusted by - or + 604800 seconds, if necessary | (which would make it lower than zero or larger than 604800, respectively). | It is a redefinition of the Version 2.10 "Message frame time". | | "Health" shall be defined as follows: | | - Bits 0 to 3 equal to Health in Message Type 17 (MT17) | - bit 4 is set to 1 if MT17 health is unavailable | - bit 5 is set to 1 if the URA index is equal to 15 | | In the SBAS message definitions bit 3 of the health is currently marked as | 'reserved'. | | In case of bit 4 set to 1, it is recommended to set bits 0,1,2,3 to 1, too. | | "User Range Accuracy" (URA): | | The same convention for converting the URA index to meters is used as | with GPS. Set URA = 32767 meters if URA index = 15. | | "IODN" (Issue Of Data Navigation) | | The IODN is defined as the 8 first bits after the message type 9, | called IODN in RTCA DO229, Annex A and Annex B and called "spare" in Annex C.| | The "CORR TO SYSTEM" TIME header record has been replaced by the more general | record "D-UTC A0,A1,T,W,S,U" in Versin 2.11. | | | 10. Version 2.11 Modifications | | The main driver for version 2.11 was the easy inclusion of Galileo and new GPS | observables into the RINEX format. As these modifications are VERY MINOR (no | changes in the actual formats) many RINEX readers will not have to be | modified at all or to a small amount, only. | | After the first introduction of the "GEO navigation message file" in Version | 2.10 feedback from the SBAS community lead to a number of clarifications/ | redefinitions that were included in the Version 2.11 modifications. | | 10.1 Galileo and New GPS Observables | | 10.1.1 New Observation Codes | | In Version 2.10 only the observation codes for two frequencies were define | (Table A1). | | The new codes for GPS L2C/L5 and Galileo codes are introduced as follows: | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | System Freq.Band Frequency RINEX 2-character Code | | | Ps.Range Carr.Phase Doppler Sign.Strength | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | GPS L1 1575.42 C1,P1 L1 D1 S1 | | | L2 1227.60 C2,P2 L2 D2 S2 | | | L5 1176.45 C5 L5 D5 S5 | | | | | | Glonass G1 1602+k*9/16 C1,P1 L1 D1 S1 | | | G2 1246+k*7/16 C2,P2 L2 D2 S2 | | | | | | Galileo E2-L1-E1 1575.42 C1 L1 D1 S1 | | | E5a 1176.45 C5 L5 D5 S5 | | | E5b 1207.140 C7 L7 D7 S7 | | | E5a+b 1191.795 C8 L8 D8 S8 | | | E6 1278.75 C6 L6 D6 S6 | | | | | | SBAS L1 1575.42 C1 L1 D1 S1 | | | L5 1176.45 C5 L5 D5 S5 | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | The current two-character observation code does not easily allow a further | refinement of the code to account for the different possibilities how to | generate a specific observable, e.g., with respect to the underlying | code (P,Y,M code in GPS) or the channels (I,Q, A,B,C in Galileo, I,Q in the | new GPS L5 frequency, GPS L2C). The next RINEX version will increase the | length of the observation codes to allow a more detailed definition. | | The definition of observations for Transit Doppler is obsolete and removed | from Version 2.11 | | 10.1.2 Wavelength Factors | | The WAVELENGTH FACT L1/2 header record defining the factor, the carrier | wavelength has to be divided with for ambiguity resolution, has been | introduced because of receivers generating GPS phase observations under | antispoofing with one cycle correspondig to half the carrier wavelength | only (squaring technique). Galileo observables will not be generated by | squaring. We therefore define the WAVELENGTH FACT L1/2 header record to be | valid for L1 and L2 GPS phase observables only. All wavelength factors default | to 1. This header record can therefore be declared to be optional. | | 10.1.3 Galileo System Time | | Include GST as Galileo System Time into TIME OF FIRST OBS and TIME OF LAST OBS | header records. | | 10.2 Clarifications in th GEO Navigaiton Message File | | The following clarifications/modifications were introduced (see chapter 9.2): | | - Health word | - Issue of Data (Navigation) IODN | - Correction to system time | - Transmission time of message | | REFERENCES Evans, A.
