The truth lies in the fact that in the most of the times not enough attention is paid to the antenna＇s setup. Usually, gross errors are found in the antenna＇s centering, leveling and in the measurement of its height, which are significant. In this paper, a thoroughly analysis of the above mentioned errors is carried out. The influence of these errors in the calculation of the X, Y, Z Cartesian geocentric coordinates and the ~, 2, h ellipsoid geodetic coordinates of a point P on the earth＇s surface, is analyzed and is presented in several diagrams. Also a new convenient method for the accurate measurement of the antenna＇s height is presented and it is strongly proposed. The conclusions outline the magnitude of these errors and prove the significance of the antenna＇s proper setup at the accurate GNSS applications.展开更多
