Switching to other frequencies of measurements requires that the satellite clocks be converted, albeit in a roundabout way, to agree with the new frequencies of code biases. Satellite phase biases, on the other hand, are prescribed conventionally as wide-lane and narrow-lane combinations, which prevents users from resolving other phase combinations in the case of multi-frequency observables. We therefore develop an approach to compute observable-specific phase biases (phase OSBs) in concert with the legacy, but ambiguity-fixed, satellite clocks to enable PPP-AR over any frequency choices and observable combinations at the user end, i.e., all-frequency PPP-AR. In particular, the phase OSBs on the baseline frequencies (e.g., L1/L2 for GPS and E1/E5a for Galileo) are estimated by decoupling the code OSBs pre-aligned with the satellite clocks; then satellite clocks are re-estimated by holding pre-resolved undifferenced ambiguities and phase OSBs on the baseline frequencies; finally, all third-frequency phase OSBs are determined by introducing the ambiguity-fixed satellite clocks above. We used a global network of multi-frequency GPS/Galileo data over a month to verify this approach. In dual-frequency PPP-AR using GPS L1/L2, L1/L5, Galileo E1/E5a, E1/E5b, E1/E5 and E1/E6 signals, over 95% of wide-lane and narrow-lane ambiguity residuals were within ±0.25 and ±0.15 cycles, respectively, after the code and phase OSB corrections on raw GNSS measurements. As a result, the ambiguity fixing rates reached around 95% in all PPP-AR tests, though it was only the satellite clocks aligned with the GPS L1/L2 and Galileo E1/E5a pseudorange that were applied throughout. We stress that the key to computing such phase OSBs for all-frequency PPP-AR is that the code OSBs have the same bias datum as that of the satellite clocks.
