  • Patent number: 7508341
    Abstract: Method for the transmission of navigation data to user terminals of a satellite navigation system composed of navigation satellites and pseudolites. The method includes transmitting positional information for at least one of the pseudolites, as part of the navigation data, without the use of separate channels or protocols for the transmission of the positional information for the at least one pseudolite. The positional information is transmitted in the form of a model of a pseudolite trajectory in a reference coordinate system which the model accounts for orbit-divergent motions of the at least one pseudolite, and the positional information for the at least on pseudolite forms a part of the navigation data.

  • Patent number: 7138942
    Abstract: A system for determining estimated navigation signal error information. Several error models are used by the evaluation unit, and, as a function of at least one defined selection standard, one of the several error models is selected. In determining the estimated navigation signal error information, the selected error model is applied to the received navigation signals, and the determined error information is transmitted to the radio navigation system and/or to user terminals.
