from single point position averaging.
Dual Station Differential Positioning
It is the objective of operating in differential mode to either eliminate or greatly reduce most of the errors
introduced by the above types of system biases. Pseudorange differential positioning is quite effective in largely
removing most of the biases caused by satellite clock error, ionospheric and tropospheric delays (for baselines less
than 50 km), ephemeris prediction errors, and 
SA
.  However, the biases caused by multipath reception and receiver
clock offset are uncorrelated between receivers and thus cannot be cancelled by "between receiver single
differencing" operation.
Differential operation requires that stations operate in pairs.  Each pair consists of a reference  station (or control
station) and a remote station.  A differential network could also be established when there is more than one remote
station linked to a single reference  station.
In order for the differential pair to be effective, differential positioning requires that both reference and remote 
station receivers track and collect satellite data simultaneously from common satellites.  When the two stations are 
in relatively close proximity (< 50 km), the pseudorange bias errors are considered to be nearly the same and can 
be effectively cancelled by the differential corrections.  However, if the baseline becomes excessively long, the 
bias errors begin to decorrelate, thus reducing the accuracy or effectiveness of the differential corrections.
