A 4D extension of complex numbers, bicomplex numbers allow for a compact representation of GNSS meta-signals with components from two different frequencies. Acquisition and tracking algorithms are obtained from the bicomplex signal representation, giving it potential for effective dual-frequency GNSS signal processing.

The Robot Plotter is a compact, fully autonomous, self-driving robot that uses RTK-GNSS positioning to place lines and other markings on a variety of ground surfaces. The machine, made by Netherlands-based Tyker Automation, sets out markings 12 to 16 times faster than traditional three- or four-person crews.

In this column, guest contributor Mike Horton from ANELLO Photonics introduces a new gyro technology that bridges the market gap between high-performance (but expensive) sensors (fiber-optic and ring laser gyros) and low-cost (but imprecise) MEMS gyros. Benefits of improved gyro quality enabled by SIPHOG are illustrated, including GNSS-denied navigation scenarios.
