System and method of compensating for micro-jump events

A method of compensating for a micro jump event, the method comprising:

• calculating an average code delay error across a plurality of channels, each channel associated with a radio frequency (RF) signal being tracked by a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver, wherein each tracked RF signal contains a code sequence that is orthogonal to the code sequence of the other tracked RF signals;
• comparing the calculated average code delay error to an error threshold to detect the micro jump event when the calculated average code delay error exceeds the error threshold;
• and
• if the calculated average code delay error exceeds the error threshold, initiating one or more actions to mitigate effects of the detected micro jump event.

A program product comprising a processor-readable medium on which program instructions are embodied, wherein the program instructions are configured, when executed by at least one programmable processor, to cause the programmable processor to:

• calculate an average code delay error across a plurality of channels, each channel associated with a radio frequency (RF) signal being tracked by a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver, wherein each tracked RF signal contains a code sequence that is orthogonal to the code sequence of the other tracked RF signals;
• compare the calculated average code delay error to an error threshold to detect the micro jump event when the calculated average code delay error exceeds the error threshold;
• and
• if the calculated average code delay error exceeds the error threshold, initiate one or more actions to mitigate effects of the detected micro jump event.
