Least trimmed squares estimator with redundancy constraint for outlier detection in GNSS networks

作者:

Highlights:

• A new approach for detecting small and large outliers in GNSS networks.

• A novel robust estimator: Least Trimmed Squares with Redundancy Constraint (LTS-RC).

• A new definition of the search space for the metaheuristics.

• LTS-RC yielded a significant improvement in comparison with the classic LTS.
