A system and method for determining whether an estimated location of a wireless device includes one or more forged satellite measurements. An estimated location of the wireless device may be determined from signals received from a first set of satellites, and a set of residuals obtained as a function of the estimated location. The obtained set of residuals may then be compared to a reference set of residuals. If the comparison between the obtained set and reference set of residuals is less than a predetermined threshold, then the estimated location may be identified as having one or more forged satellite measurements.
