High accuracy localization method using AoA in sensor networks

TL;DR: A new localization method, called HA-A2L (High Accuracy localization based on Angle to Landmark), which considerably increases the number of located nodes with far better accuracy compared to previous methods, such as APS and A2L.
Journal ArticleDOI

Digital microwave receiver technology

TL;DR: The impact of digital signal processing on microwave receiver technology is reported and two types of receivers are discussed, one of which is the software Global Positioning System receiver and the other a transform-domain communication system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient and Optimal Attitude Determination Using Recursive Global Positioning System Signal Operations

TL;DR: Results indicate that the new algorithm accurately estimates the attitude of a moving vehicle, and provides robust attitude estimates even when other methods, such as a linearized least-squares approach, fail due to poor initial starting conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility of Air Target Detection Using GPS as a Bistatic Radar

TL;DR: The feasibility of using GPS as a bistatic radar illuminator for the purposes of air target detection is examined in this paper, where the power budget analysis is first performed assuming the use of a single satellite, but is followed by a discussion of the expected improvements when multiple satellites are employed.

Relationship between GPS signals reflected from sea surfaces and surface winds: Modeling results and comparisons with aircraft measurements

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the accuracy of the GPS signals reflected from rough sea surfaces with the aircraft measurements, and showed that the difference between model results and observations are within the level of experimental errors, and that there is considerable potential for current or advanced GPS receiving systems to estimate near-sea surface wind speeds.

Wide Area Differential GPS

TL;DR: Simulation results indicate that normal GPS positioning errors can potentially be reduced by more than 95% using WADGPS.

Ephemeris and Clock Navigation Message Accuracy

J. Zumberge, +1 more
TL;DR: The accuracy of the ephemeris and clock corrections contained in the GPS navigation message is discussed.

GPS and Inertial Integration

TL;DR: This chapter devotes one section to address each of the following questions: how complex are the integration algorithms required to provide the desired level of performance, with options for growth to meet future requirements?

Test Range Instrumentation

TL;DR: In the early 1970s, laser trackers became available to support test activities as discussed by the authors, and a combination of radar, distance-measuring equipment (DME), optical trackers such as cinetheodolites, and other miscellaneous instrumentation to provide time-space position information (TSPI) to satisfy test platform positioning requirements.
