Activity II

Objective: Analyze the influence of Multipath Mitigation on the RTK positioning accuracy using GNSS raw Measurement from smartphones and Analyze the effect of using choke ring platform.

Measurement Setup: The smartphone was fixed on the choke ring platform. The choke ring platform was then placed on the geodetic pillar whose location coordinates are known up to mm level accuracy. The reference station using Trimble R10.
