Accuracy of point positioning using GPS.

Increasing Accuracy of Combined GPS and GLONASS Positioning using Fuzzy Kalman Filter

In this paper, combined GPS and GLONASS positioning systems are discussed and some solutions have been proposed to improve the accuracy of navigation. Global Satellite Navigation System (GNSS) is able to provide position, velocity and time with respect to coordinated universal time. GNSS positioning is based on received satellite signals, so its performance is highly dependent on the quality of...

The Accuracy of Gps Relative Positioning

Single Point Positioning Using GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou Satellites

This paper introduces the Chinese BeiDou satellite system and its comparison with the actual completed American GPS and the Russian GLONASS systems. The actual BeiDou system consists of 14 satellites covering totally the Asia-Pacific area. A Single Point Positioning (SPP) test has been realised in Changsha, Hunan province, China, to show the advantage of using combined pseudorange solutions fro...

GPS Precise Point Positioning Using IGS Orbit Products

The International GPS Service (IGS) has provided GPS orbit products to the scientific community with increased precision and timeliness. Many users interested in geodetic positioning have adopted the IGS precise orbits to achieve centimeter level accuracy and ensure long-term reference frame stability. Currently, a differential positioning approach that requires the combination of observations ...

Precise Point Positioning Using Combined GPS and GLONASS Observations

Precise Point Positioning (PPP) is currently based on the processing of only GPS observations. Its positioning accuracy, availability and reliability are very dependent on the number of visible satellites, which is often insufficient in the environments such as urban canyons, mountain and open-pit mines areas. Even in the open area where sufficient GPS satellites are available, the accuracy and...
