This paper presents a comparison of error characteristics between time of arrival (TOA) and time difference of arrival (TDOA) processing of the linearized GPS pseudo-range equations. In particular, the relationship among dilutions of precision (DOPs), position estimates, and their error covariances is investigated. DOPs for TDOA are defined using the error covariance matrix resulting from TDOA processing. It is shown that the DOPs and user position estimate are the same for TDOA and TOA processing. The relationship of DOPs and position estimates for standard GPS positioning and double differenced processing are also given.
