Enhancing GNSS Accuracy Through the Actualization Function: A Novel Theoretical Correction to Timing and Filtering

This paper applies the recently proposed Actualization Function (AF) to global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), presenting a novel correction model for both raw signal timing and filter design. AF introduces a curvature- and interference-aware suppression term derived from Planck-scale physical constraints. Using this approach, the paper models GNSS accuracy under both traditional SR/GR assumptions and AF-enhanced filtering across 6- and 12-satellite configurations. The results demonstrate a measurable improvement in positional accuracy—over 11% in reduced uncertainty area—without modifying satellite hardware. The paper also outlines a theoretical basis for integrating AF corrections into carrier phase filters, Doppler locks, and Kalman smoothers, using public ESA and IGS datasets. Supplementary sections offer technical reproducibility of the AF-filter mapping. This cross-domain application of cosmological theory to Earth-based instrumentation highlights AF's versatility and invites further refinement of existing satellite positioning models. It is suitable for publication in applied physics, geodesy, GNSS, and theoretical modeling journals.

Abstract

This paper applies the recently proposed Actualization Function (AF) to global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), presenting a novel correction model for both raw signal timing and filter design. AF introduces a curvature- and interference-aware suppression term derived from Planck-scale physical constraints. Using this approach, the paper models GNSS accuracy under both traditional SR/GR assumptions and AF-enhanced filtering across 6- and 12-satellite configurations. The results demonstrate a measurable improvement in positional accuracy—over 11% in reduced uncertainty area—without modifying satellite hardware. The paper also outlines a theoretical basis for integrating AF corrections into carrier phase filters, Doppler locks, and Kalman smoothers, using public ESA and IGS datasets. Supplementary sections offer technical reproducibility of the AF-filter mapping. This cross-domain application of cosmological theory to Earth-based instrumentation highlights AF's versatility and invites further refinement of existing satellite positioning models. It is suitable for publication in applied physics, geodesy, GNSS, and theoretical modeling journals.
