Abstract
A time synchronization system an input interface configured to receive pseudorange measurements from a set of antennas of at least one Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiving system that operates the antennas at known positions according to a clock with an unknown time bias to receive signals from satellites in sight of the antennas and an output interface configured to output the determined time bias. The time synchronization system also includes a processor configured to compare the pseudorange measurements of different antennas to produce an antenna-specific clock offset for each of the antennas, correct the pseudorange measurements of the antennas according to the antenna-specific clock offsets of corresponding antennas to produce corrected pseudorange measurements, and determine the time bias of the clock using the corrected pseudorange measurements.
