PAVA/B Position Averaging Status
These logs are meant to be used in conjunction with the POSAVE command. If the POSAVE command has not been
issued, all fields in the PAVA/B logs except week and seconds will be zero. However, when position averaging is
underway, the various fields contain the parameters being used in the position averaging process. The log trigger
ONCHANGED is recommended, but ONTIME can also be used.
See the description of the POSAVE command.
See also Appendix A, Section A.3.2 Pseudorange Algorithms.
NOTE: All quantities are referenced to the WGS84 ellipsoid, regardless of the use of the DATUM or USERDATUM
commands, except for the height parameter (field 6). The relation between the geoid and the WGS84 ellipsoid
is the geoidal undulation, and can be obtained from the POSA/B logs.
