The Performance of a Pseudolite-Based Positioning System for Deformation Monitoring
نویسندگان
چکیده
There are three general scenarios for the use of pseudolites in deformation monitoring systems; namely GPS augmented with pseudolites, pseudolite-only and pseudolite ‘inverted’ positioning. This paper focuses on the results and analysis of experimental data collected for these three pseudolite scenarios. The results suggest that the use of helical antennas can reduce pseudolite multipath error. The performance of pseudolite-GPS and pseudolite-only systems are evaluated and shown to be suitable for precise (cm-level) positioning.

Airborne Relay-Based Regional Positioning System
Ground-based pseudolite systems have some limitations, such as low vertical accuracy, multipath effects and near-far problems. These problems are not significant in airborne-based pseudolite systems. However, the monitoring of pseudolite positions is required because of the mobility of the platforms on which the pseudolites are mounted, and this causes performance degradation. To address these ...

Ground-based pseudolite navigation systems have several limitations, such as low vertical accuracy, susceptibility to multipath effects, and near-far signal problems. These limitations could be addressed with an airborne pseudolite system. However, to ensure high user positioning accuracy the aerial signal transmitters have to be accurately positioned. Commonly used methods are based on the “in...
