| Abstract: | This paper investigates three precise kinematic positioning techniques with simultaneous GPS pseudorange and carrier phase measurements. These techniques are simple, efficient, and well suited for real-time positioning applications. A simulation/covariance analysis is carried out comparing the relative performance of these techniques. The analysis indicates that GPS carrier phase measurements significantly strengthen kinematic positioning. When wide-area differential GPS for reducing SA clock errors and GPS ephemeris errors is available, a low Earth orbiting satellite can be positioned to 0.5-0.8 m in accuracy (3-D RSS). The accuracy is superior to positioning with pseudorange measurements alone by a factor of 2 to 3. Relative positioning performance and complexity between the three techniques are compared. |
