An interacting multiple-model (IMM) estimator is developed to adaptively estimate the process noise covariance of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite clocks for improved positioning. Experimental results are presented showing a stationary ground receiver localizing itself with carrier phase measurements from a single Orbcomm LEO satellite. The developed IMM is shown to reduce the localization error and improve filter consistency over two fixed mismatched extended Kalman filters (EKFs). Starting with an initial receiver position error of 1.45 km, the IMM yielded a final error of 111.26 m, while the errors of a conservative and optimistic EKFs converged to 254.71 m and 429.35 m, respectively.
