Table 6 Baseline length repeatabilities. Given are baseline length repeatabilities for a KF solution using a global Φ value and one with station-dependent Φ. Both types of Φ values have been extracted from time series of the specific CONT campaigns. The repeatabilities are valid for a theoretical baseline of 10,000 km, calculated from a quadratic fit of the individual baseline length repeatabilities

From: Tropospheric delay determination by Kalman filtering VLBI data
