                                          double integrationTime)
        Constructor for the Single Frequency Hatch Filter.

        The threshold parameter corresponds to the maximum difference between non-smoothed and smoothed pseudo range value, above which the filter is reset.

        Parameters:
        initCode - initial code measurement
        initSmoothing - initial smoothing measurement
        type - type of the smoothing measurement (CARRIER_PHASE or DOPPLER)
        wavelength - measurement value wavelength (m)
        threshold - threshold for loss of lock detection (represents the maximum difference between smoothed and measured values for loss of lock detection)
        N - window size of the Hatch Filter
        integrationTime - time interval between two measurements (s)

        codeValue - pseudo range value before the reset.
      • resetNextBoolean

        protected void resetNextBoolean()

        This method corresponds to Eq. (4.23) of "Subirana, J. S., Hernandez-Pajares, M., and José Miguel Juan Zornoza. GNSS Data Processing: Fundamentals and Algorithms. European Space Agency."

        Parameters:
        codeValue - value of the input code measurement (non-smoothed)

        Checks if need to reset the filter or if cycle slip occurred.

        If yes, the smoothed value is reinitialized to the last code value. If no, the smoothed value value is not changed and the filter counter is updated.

        Parameters:
        codeValue - value of the input code measurement (non-smoothed)
        smoothedValue - the smoothed code value
        cycleSlip - true if cycle slip is detected
