Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 24
int describeContents ()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(Parcel, int), the return value of this method must include the CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.

Returns
int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance.

getAccumulatedDeltaRangeMeters

Added in API level 24
double getAccumulatedDeltaRangeMeters ()

Gets the accumulated delta range since the last channel reset, in meters.

The error estimate for this value is getAccumulatedDeltaRangeUncertaintyMeters().

The availability of the value is represented by getAccumulatedDeltaRangeState().

A positive value indicates that the SV is moving away from the receiver. The sign of getAccumulatedDeltaRangeMeters() and its relation to the sign of getCarrierPhase() is given by the equation:

          accumulated delta range = -k * carrier phase    (where k is a constant)

Returns
double

getAccumulatedDeltaRangeState

Added in API level 24
int getAccumulatedDeltaRangeState ()

Gets 'Accumulated Delta Range' state.

It indicates whether getAccumulatedDeltaRangeMeters() is reset or there is a cycle slip (indicating 'loss of lock').

Returns
int

getAccumulatedDeltaRangeUncertaintyMeters

Added in API level 24
double getAccumulatedDeltaRangeUncertaintyMeters ()

Gets the accumulated delta range's uncertainty (1-Sigma) in meters.

The uncertainty is represented as an absolute (single sided) value.

The status of the value is represented by getAccumulatedDeltaRangeState().

Returns
double

getCarrierCycles

Added in API level 24
long getCarrierCycles ()

The number of full carrier cycles between the satellite and the receiver.

The reference frequency is given by the value of getCarrierFrequencyHz().

The value is only available if hasCarrierCycles() is true.

Returns
long

getCarrierFrequencyHz

Added in API level 24
float getCarrierFrequencyHz ()

Gets the carrier frequency at which codes and messages are modulated.

For GPS, e.g., it can be L1 or L2. If the field is not set, it is the primary common use frequency, e.g. L1 for GPS.

The value is only available if hasCarrierFrequencyHz() is true.

Returns
float

getCarrierPhase

Added in API level 24
double getCarrierPhase ()

Gets the RF phase detected by the receiver.

Range: [0.0, 1.0].

The value is only available if hasCarrierPhase() is true.

Returns
double

getCarrierPhaseUncertainty

Added in API level 24
double getCarrierPhaseUncertainty ()

A positive 'uncorrected' value indicates that the SV is moving away from the receiver. The sign of the 'uncorrected' 'pseudorange rate' and its relation to the sign of 'doppler shift' is given by the equation:

      pseudorange rate = -k * doppler shift   (where k is a constant)

Returns
double
