Abstract

Navigation signal group delay calibration methods and systems are described. In an embodiment, a code signal generated in a navigation system platform can be measured where the code signal includes timing delay(s). An additional code signal generated in the navigation system platform can be measured where the additional code signal is designated as a timing reference signal. A differential group delay between the code signal and the timing reference signal can the be mathematically estimated in the navigation system platform to correct for an inaccurate position estimation that would result from the timing delay(s).
