  • Publication number: 20210072408
    Abstract: A system and method for determining a position of a mobile receiver including receiving a set of satellite observations, the set of satellite observations corresponding to a set of satellites; determining a state vector at each of a plurality of filters, wherein each filter determines the respective state vector based on a unique subset of the set of satellite observations; after a convergence criterion is satisfied, determining a converged state vector based on the respective integer ambiguity hypotheses; and determining the position of the mobile resolver based on the converged state vector.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20200158883
    Abstract: A method for reduced-outlier satellite positioning includes receiving a set of satellite positioning observations at a receiver; generating a first receiver position estimate; generating a set of posterior observation residual values from the set of satellite positioning observations and the first receiver position estimate; based on the set of posterior observation residual values, identifying a subset of the satellite positioning observations as statistical outliers; and after mitigating an effect of the statistical outliers, generating a second receiver position estimate having higher accuracy than the first receiver position estimate.

  • Patent number: 8733690
    Abstract: An aerial vehicle adapted for vertical takeoff and landing using the same set of engines for takeoff and landing as well as for forward flight. An aerial vehicle which is adapted to takeoff with the wings in a vertical as opposed to horizontal flight attitude which takes off in this vertical attitude and then transitions to a horizontal flight path. An aerial vehicle which controls the attitude of the vehicle during takeoff and landing by alternating the thrust of engines, which are separated in at least two dimensions relative to the horizontal during takeoff, and which may also control regular flight in some aspects by the use of differential thrust of the engines.

  • Publication number: 20110042510
    Abstract: An aerial vehicle adapted for vertical takeoff and landing using the same set of engines for takeoff and landing as well as for forward flight. An aerial vehicle which uses a rotating platform of engines in fixed relationship to each other and which rotates relative to the main body of the vehicle for takeoff and landing. An aerial vehicle which is adapted to takeoff with the wings in a vertical as opposed to horizontal flight attitude which takes off in this vertical attitude and then transitions to a horizontal flight path. An aerial vehicle which controls the attitude of the vehicle during takeoff and landing by alternating the thrust of engines, which are separated in at least two dimensions relative to the horizontal during takeoff, and which may also control regular flight in some aspects by the use of differential thrust of the engines.
