Abstract
A correction generation unit generates an amount of correction for a phase pseudorange between a positioning satellite and each of a plurality of evaluation points, as an amount of evaluation point correction for each of the plurality of evaluation points, based on a carrier phase of a positioning signal observed at each of a plurality of electronic reference points. A reference calculation unit calculates a difference between the phase pseudorange between the positioning satellite and each of the plurality of evaluation points and a geometric distance between the positioning satellite and each of the plurality of evaluation points, as an amount of reference correction for each of the plurality of evaluation points. A ranging error calculation unit removes a bias component due to ambiguity from a difference between the amount of evaluation point correction and the amount of reference correction and thereby calculates a ranging error at each of the plurality of evaluation points.
