Route planning and map inference with global positioning traces

TL;DR: The algorithm of Bentley and Ottmann is shown to transform geometric GPS information directly into a combinatorial weighted and directed graph structure, which can be queried by applying classical and refined graph traversal algorithms like Dijkstras' single-source shortest path algorithm or A*.

Utilizing calibrated GPS reflected signals to estimate soil reflectivity and dielectric constant: Results from SMEX02

TL;DR: In this paper, a GPS reflectometer installed on an HC130 aircraft during the Soil Moisture Experiment 2002 (SMEX02) near Ames, Iowa was used to estimate the strength of the reflected signals by either assuming an approximately specular surface reflection or inferring the surface slope probability density and associated normalization constants.

A high-accuracy, low-cost localization system for wireless sensor networks

TL;DR: This paper formally describes, design, implement and evaluates a novel localization system, called Spotlight, which uses the spatio-temporal properties of well controlled events in the network, to obtain the locations of sensor nodes.

Location Estimation via Support Vector Regression

TL;DR: Using support vector regression, this work investigates the missing value location estimation problem by providing theoretical and empirical analysis on existing and novel kernels and shows promising performances, especially in terrains with local variations in environmental factors.

A new model for GPS yaw attitude

TL;DR: A new model for the GPS satellite yaw attitude is introduced that constitutes a significant improvement over the previously available model in terms of efficiency, flexibility and portability and the implementation of the yaw bias on the GPS satellites is reviewed.

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.
