← ScienceWhich timing skew results from navigating satellite constellations?
A)Gravitational time dilation effects✓
B)Increased atmospheric refraction errors
C)Excessive carrier phase ambiguity
D)Antenna multipath signal distortion
💡 Explanation
Signals experience gravitational time dilation effects because varying spacetime curvature alters the observed frequency. Therefore, clocks appear to tick slower when closer to massive objects such as Earth, rather than other atmospheric or signal delay characteristics.
