GBPSs are known for their low cost and high flexibility, but most of them have difficulty in achieving rapid deployment and operation, since the coordinates of transmitters rely on external precise measurements. Several existing self-calibration methods based on carrier phase measurements require known points of GBPS transmitters or receivers, which implies dependence on external measurements. This paper proposes an autonomous coordinate establishment (ACE) method without using known reference points for GBPSs. ACE utilizes a kinematic receiver to collect carrier phase measurements and employs a three-step procedure to establish a regional coordinate system. In the first step, ACE uses the properties of matrix structures to decouple generalized ambiguities and coordinates. Then, ACE obtains the rough estimation of the transmitter coordinates via multi-dimensional scaling in the second step. In the third step, ACE refines the estimate by solving a least squares problem which would be difficult to solve without the previous two steps. Numerical simulations and a real-world experiment show that the coordinate estimation of ACE can achieve decimeter to centimeter-level accuracy. The proposed method enables rapid deployment and operation for GBPSs.

INS-assisted inter-system biases estimation and inter-system ambiguity resolution in a complex environment / Wenhao Zhao in GPS solutions, vol 27 n° 1 (January 2023)  

Public [article]  inGPS solutions > vol 27 n° 1 (January 2023) . - n° 3 Titre : INS-assisted inter-system biases estimation and inter-system ambiguity resolution in a complex environment Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Wenhao Zhao, Auteur ; Genyou Liu, Auteur ; Ming Gao, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : n° 3 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] centrale inertielle [Termes IGN] erreur systématique inter-systèmes [Termes IGN] filtre de Kalman [Termes IGN] positionnement cinématique en temps réel [Termes IGN] résolution d'ambiguïté [Termes IGN] système complexe [Termes IGN] trajet multiple Résumé : (auteur) The inter-system real-time kinematic (RTK) model in which multiple systems choose the same reference satellite uses more observations than the traditional intra-system RTK model; however, it is still difficult to accurately determine the differential inter-system biases (DISB) and inter-system ambiguity in a complex environment. We propose a tightly coupled inter-system RTK/INS model that uses the high-precision position information the inertial navigation system (INS) provides to assist in DISB estimation and inter-system ambiguity resolution. Vehicle experiments on urban roads were designed to verify the effectiveness of the method. The vehicle experiments consisted of a simulated rare satellite environment with a high cutoff elevation angle and a real complex environment with buildings and trees obscuration. A robust Kalman filter strategy is used to combat the effects of multipath and non-line-of-sight signals in real complex environments. The results indicate that with the help of INS, the standard deviation of phase and code DISB is reduced by 11 and 17%, respectively, in the simulated environment and by 33 and 18%, respectively, in the real complex environment. Compared with the intra-system RTK/INS model, inter-system RTK/INS mode 3D positioning root-mean-square error is reduced by 79% in the simulated environment and by 27% in the real complex environment. In the single-epoch mode, the ambiguity success rates of the inter-system RTK/INS model, inter-system RTK model, intra-system RTK/INS model and intra-system RTK model are 89, 74, 69 and 58%, respectively, in the simulated environment, and 68, 41, 64 and 12%, respectively, in the real complex environment.

Performance tests of geodetic receivers with tilt sensors in obstructed environments using the NRTK GNSS technique / Puttipol Dumrongchai in Journal of applied geodesy, vol 17 n° 1 (January 2023)

Determining accurate coordinates of parcel boundary markers at building corners or near fences and walls is difficult because a GNSS range pole cannot be leveled with a circular bubble. This study aims to evaluate the performance of the receivers equipped with tilt sensors for horizontal and vertical positioning. Two types of tilt sensors used for evaluation were a magnetometer and micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) and an inertial measurement unit (IMU). Conducting the NRTK GNSS surveying tests was based on the pole tilt angles of 0°, 15°, 25°, 35°, and 45° from a plumb line in controlled and obstructed environments. The IMU-based tilt sensor had more advantage of accurately positioning over the MEMS sensor. The results showed that using the IMU, better than 4 cm horizontal positioning accuracy was achievable when the pole was tilted by 15° or less under non-multipath and open-sky conditions. The vertical accuracy was of a few centimeter levels and least sensitive to tilt angles using either type of sensor. However, none of the sensors precisely compensated for pole tilt in strong-multipath and complex environments, causing increased horizontal errors in decimeter levels.

High-precision positioning using plane-constrained RTK method in urban environments / Chen Zhuang in Navigation : journal of the Institute of navigation, vol 69 n° 4 (Fall 2022)  

Public [article]  inNavigation : journal of the Institute of navigation > vol 69 n° 4 (Fall 2022) . - n° 540 Titre : High-precision positioning using plane-constrained RTK method in urban environments Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Chen Zhuang, Auteur ; Hongbo Zhao, Auteur ; Yuli He, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 540 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] ambiguïté entière [Termes IGN] antenne GNSS [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] estimateur [Termes IGN] filtre de Kalman [Termes IGN] positionnement cinématique en temps réel [Termes IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes IGN] Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring [Termes IGN] résolution d'ambiguïté [Termes IGN] véhicule [Termes IGN] zone urbaine Résumé : (auteur) High-precision positioning methods have drawn great attention in recent years due to the rapid development of smart vehicles as well as automatics driving technology. The Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) technique is a mature tool to achieve centimeter-level positioning accuracy in open-sky areas. However, the users who drive under dense urban conditions are always confronted with harsh global navigation satellite system (GNSS) environments. Skyscrapers and overpasses block the signals and reduce the number of visible satellites, making it difficult to achieve continuous and precise positioning. Considering that the road is relatively smooth in most urban areas, vehicles are expected to travel on the same plane when they are close to each other. The road plane information is a promising candidate to enhance the performance of the RTK method in constrained environments. In this paper, we propose a plane-constrained RTK (PCRTK) method using the positioning information from cooperative vehicles. In a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) network, the positions of cooperative vehicles are used to fit a road plane for the target vehicle. The parameters of the plane fitting are treated as new measurements to enhance the performance of the float estimator. The relationship between the plane parameters and the state of the estimator is derived in our study. To validate the performance of the proposed method, several experiments with a four-vehicle fleet were carried out in open-sky areas and dense urban areas in Beijing, China. Simulations and experimental results show that the proposed method can take advantage of the plane constraint and obtain more accurate positioning results compared to the traditional RTK method.
