Conclusions. Future work. Conclusions: Integer PPP can be realized with raw uncombined measurements on initial GPS frequencies providing better (at least the same) results in terms of accuracy and convergence time. Instead of satellite decoupled clocks for measurements on initial frequencies, ionosphere-free satellite decoupled clocks can be used to realize full uncombined solution (First approach) or at least estimating of initial N1 and N2 ambiguities (Second approach). Having decoupled satellite clocks for measurement on initial frequencies, we can rigorously calculate ionosphere-free decoupled clocks, but reverse rigorous transition is impossible. Future work: Rigorous analysis of integer search space in Integer PPP with use of satellite decoupled clocks for measurements on initial frequencies. Calculating decoupled satellite clocks for measurements on initial GPS frequencies in network solution. Statistical analysis of the approach.
