Improved knight method based on narrowed search space for instantaneous gps attitude determination

TL;DR: In this article, a new method to narrow the search space by taking into account a geometric constraint of visible satellites is proposed, which is formulated as a recursive procedure and is thus very suitable to be incorporated into the search loop of the Knight method.

The Local Integrity Approach for Urban Contexts: Definition and Vehicular Experimental Assessment.

TL;DR: A novel cooperative integrity monitoring concept, called “local integrity”, suitable to automotive applications in urban scenarios, is discussed, and the experimental validation by means of a measurement campaign and real-time implementation of the algorithm on a vehicular prototype is described.

A Kalman filter approach to reduce position error for pedestrian applications in areas of bad GPS reception

TL;DR: The number of GPS-enabled devices is growing rapidly as mentioned in this paper, and a large segment of the growth is coupled to the growth of smartphones, where location-based applications are relatively simple, requiring only...

Optimization-Based Sensor Fusion of GNSS and IMU Using a Moving Horizon Approach

TL;DR: An optimization-based framework for multi-sensor fusion following a moving horizon scheme is applied to the often occurring estimation problem of motion tracking by fusing measurements of a global navigation satellite system receiver and an inertial measurement unit.

Receiver Sensitivity Analysis and Results

TL;DR: The theoretical basis for acquisition algorithms and tracking loops to improve the overall sensitivity of the receiver and the programmable architecture on the NAV2K TM family of GPS receivers facilitated easy implementation of the improved algorithms onto the GPS core.
