where µ = 9386005 × 10 8 m 3 /s 2 is the earth's universal gravitational parameter,
a s is the semi-major axis of the satellite orbit obtained from subframe 2 in bits
227 - 234 and 241 - 264, and n is the mean motion difference obtained from
subframe 2 in bits 91 - 106.
As discussed in Section 4.8, the correction of GPS time at time of transmission
( t c ) must be performed first. The correction can be made from Equation (4.32)
as follows:
if t c
t oe > 302400
then
t c
t c 604800
if t c
t oe <
302400
then
t c
t c + 604800
(9.8)
where t c is obtained from Equation (9.6) and t oe (subframe 2, bits 271 - 286) is
the reference time ephemeris obtained from navigation data.
Once the GPS system time at time of transmission ( t c ) is found, the mean
anomaly can be found from Equation (4.34)
M = M 0 + n(t c t oe )
( 9 . 9 )
where M 0
is the mean anomaly at reference time obtained from subframe
2
bits
107 - 114,
121 - 144.
The
eccentric
anomaly E can
be
found
from
Equation (4.35) as
E

+
e s sin E
( 9 . 10 )
where e s is the eccentricity of satellite orbit obtained from subframe 2 bits
167 - 174 and 181 - 204. Since this equation is nonlinear, the iteration method
will be used to obtain E .
The relativistic correction term can be obtained from Equation (4.37)
Fe s a s sin E
t r
=
( 9 . 11 )
10 10 sec/m 1 / 2 is a constant, e s , a s ,and E are men-
tioned in Equations (9.7) and (9.10). The overall time correction term is shown
in Equation (4.38) as
where F

where a f 0 (271 - 292), a f 1 (249 - 264), a f 2 (241 - 248), t oc (219 - 234) are satellite
clock corrections, t GD (197 - 204) is the estimated group delay differential, and
all are obtained from subframe 1.
