    Ground-Based Augmentation System (GBAS) is concerned with the aircraft positioning correction for precision landing. The ionospheric irregularity is a major impediment of the performance of GBAS. When an airport has at least 2 Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) stations, the ionospheric delay gradients can be obtained by using the dual-frequency GNSS stations. If there is only 1 GNSS station in the area, the time step-method can be used. Normally, the baseline from the time-step method is varied according to the sampling rate of GNSS data. Although the sampling rate of the GNSS receiver is a constant value, the baseline varies due to the speed of the GNSS satellite, observed from the ground reference, which can be up to 20 difference km. This paper proposes the dynamic Time-Step method which designates the baseline by adjusting the time between 2 snapshots. The results show that the range of baseline from the reference time-step method, which is set to 1 minute of the sampling rate, can be reduced to 0.5-km variation.
