A hybrid weighted Fourier transform and relaxation (hybrid‐WRELAX) method applied to Loran‐C skywave delay estimation is presented. The performance of this method is demonstrated and compared with the spectrum analysis method. The hybrid‐WRELAX method has been proved to provide higher accuracy to estimate the Loran‐C skywave delay. Results testify this conclusion using off‐air data.
