The individual satellite time, tSV, is corrected to GPS system time, t, using:
t ⫽ tSV ⫺ ⌬tSV

in which
Differentiating Eq. A3-1 with respect to time yields satellite clock drift.
The satellite coordinates in the WGS-84 Cartesian system are computed for a
given epoch, t. The time, tk, elapsed since the reference epoch, t0e, is tk ⫽ t ⫺ ⌬t0e.
