The impact of tropospheric delay towards the accuracy of GPS height determination

When Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite signals propagates through the earth’s neutral atmosphere, the radio signals are affected significantly by the variability of its refractive index, which causes primarily in the delay of the arrival, usually referred to as the tropospheric delay.
