Abstract. Ambiguity validation tests include the acceptance test and discrimination test, which are both important steps in the Global Positioning System ambiguity resolution process. An ambiguity discrimination test procedure based on a test statistic which is constructed by the difference (not the ratio as used in current procedures) between the minimum and second minimum quadratic form of the residuals in ambiguity identification, and its standard deviation, is proposed. The distribution function of the proposed test statistic is theoretically identified as a standard normal distribution when the known a priori variance factor is used, or as a Student's t distribution when the estimated variance factor is used. With this procedure, the ambiguity discrimination test is based on a more rigorous test statistic whose critical value can be calculated with any chosen level of significance. Test results indicate that the proposed ambiguity discrimination test procedure is reliable for use in ambiguity resolution on-the-fly.
