So, it has notable advantages and is widely used. The MHM method divides the sky into grids according to the azimuth and elevation angles of satellite, and calculates the average of the residuals within the grid points as its multipath calibration value. It is easy to implement, but it will inevitably lead to excessive or insufficient multipath correction in the grid. The trend surface analysis-based multipath hemispherical map (T-MHM) method makes up for this deficiency by performing trend surface analysis on the multipath spatial changes within the grid points. However, the effectiveness of T-MHM is limited and less capable of resisting noise interference due to the multicollinearity between the independent variables caused by the special spatial distribution of multipath sampling and the overfitting problem caused by ignoring the multipath anisotropy. Thus, we proposed an improved multipath elimination method named AT-MHM (advanced trend surface analysis-based multipath hemispherical model), which cautiously judges the occurrence of the above problems and gives corresponding solutions. This was extended to double-difference mode, which expands the scope of application. The performance of AT-MHM in GPS pseudorange multipath mitigation was verified on geodetic receiver and low-cost receiver in a strong multipath environment with high occlusion.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs12213601","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,2]],"date-time":"2020-11-02T19:51:31Z","timestamp":1604346691000},"page":"3601","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["An Advanced Multipath Mitigation Method Based on Trend Surface Analysis"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Zhiren","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Engineering Center of SHMEC for Space Information and GNSS, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5888-7415","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wen","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Engineering Center of SHMEC for Space Information and GNSS, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geographic Information Science, Ministry of Education, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Danan","family":"Dong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Engineering Center of SHMEC for Space Information and GNSS, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geographic Information Science, Ministry of Education, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chenglong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geographic Information Science, Ministry of Education, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Peng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geographic Information Science, Ministry of Education, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhengqi","family":"Zheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Engineering Center of SHMEC for Space Information and GNSS, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"},{"name":"Shanghai Key Laboratory of Multidimensional Information Processing, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"16","article-title":"GPS antenna multipath rejection performance","volume":"96","author":"Dinius","year":"1995","journal-title":"Nasa Sti\/Recon Tech.
