k
Knowing the travel time
τ
this quantity can be converted to the so-called pseu-
i
dorange P i
by multiplication with the speed of light c :

However, clocks do not work perfectly. So we introduce the receiver clock off-
set dt i and the satellite clock offset dt k :

The receiver clock offset has to be estimated from the observed pseudoranges
while the satellite clock offset can be computed from
dt k

where t is the transmit time. The constants a 0 ,
a 1 ,and a 2 are parameters transmit-
ted according to Table 3.4.

Additionally, a signal in space accuracy (SISA) parameter is planned. It is en-
coded as 8 bits.
An ionospheric correction service is planned. An effective ionization-level pa-
rameter is computed from three broadcast coefficients.
