This paper is concerned with the experimental analysis of EOW(End-of-Week) rollover. The GPS EOW Rollover happens every 20 years. Because GPS time, counted in weeks, started counting Jan. 6, 1980, the GPS week will rollover from week 1023 to 0000 at midnight between Aug. 21 and 22. This is significant because it is the first EOW rollover since the GPS constellation was established and it could be interpreted as an invalid date in receivers that were not designed to meet GPS specification. We analyzed GPS data of the noncompliant receivers and the compliant receiver. It was concluded that all receivers had not serious problems during or after the rollover.
