Abstract:
A method and system of improving Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) results by compensating for antenna tilt in determining the location of the GNSS receiver is disclosed. In general, the angle of tilt of the antenna is determined. The actual elevation of a satellite is determined. The effective elevation of the satellite relative to the antenna is then calculated.
