Multiple Imaging Radars Integrate with INS/GNSS via AUTO Software Reliable and Accurate Positioning for Autonomous Vehicles and Robots

Difficult GNSS environments and adverse weather conditions require a fusion of many sensors to maintain lane-level accuracy for autonomous platforms, without incurring high costs that would inhibit widespread adoption. Radars are an attractive option in a multi-sensor integration scheme due to being robust to adverse weather and insensitive to lighting variations.

Signal Authentication, 5G and a Whole Lot of SatNav Trouble

The following is a partial transcript of a talk given to the National PNT Advisory Board Executive Committee (PNTAB ExCom) on December 9, 2021. It connects GNSS signal authentication, by both Galileo’s OSNMA and the proposed GPS Chimera signal, with developing PNT capabilities in 5G telecom technology, and further, with software-defined radio (SDR) capabilities aboard some GNSS satellites that could place GPS in the second tier.

Precise Point Positioning in Urban Environments

With a Low-cost Single-frequency Multi-GNSS Receiver

Although precise point positioning (PPP) has been largely limited to applications in open environments using high-end GNSS receivers, recent test results demonstrate that a new PPP system with a mass-market receiver can significantly improve positioning accuracy in urban environments.
