The method includes: a) receiving GNSS raw data relating to at least one GNSS satellite signal; b) evaluating the GNSS raw data; c) forming at least one interference indicator for describing at least one interfering influence on the GNSS reception in the area of a geographic position and/or for a route section, taking into account the evaluated GNSS raw data relating to the area or the route section; and d) storing the at least one interference indicator with at least one item of geographic information on the area of the geographic position or the route section.

Abstract: A method for determining an integrity datum regarding a GNSS-based localization of a vehicle includes (i) receiving GNSS satellite signals from at least one GNSS satellite and determining GNSS localization data using the received GNSS satellite signals, (ii) receiving 5G signals and determining 5G localization data using the received 5G signals, and (iii) determining a first integrity datum in consideration of at least received 5G signals or determined 5G localization data.

Abstract: The disclosure concerns a method for ascertaining at least one piece of integrity information relating to a location result of a GNSS-based location device of a vehicle in the event of an abruptly and significantly changing GNSS reception situation, comprising at least the following steps: (a) ascertaining the current ego position of the vehicle by means of the GNSS-based location device; (b) ascertaining at least one piece of integrity information relating to the ego position ascertained in step (a), by means of the GNSS-based location device; (c) detecting an abruptly and significantly changing or significantly altered GNSS reception situation; and (d) adapting the ascertainment of the at least one piece of integrity information for the changing or altered GNSS reception situation.

Abstract: A method for selecting a combination of GNSS satellites to carry out a position determination from a plurality of visible GNSS satellites in a GNSS receiver taking account of the variance of the satellite signals of the respective GNSS satellites includes: a) sorting the visible GNSS satellites using at least two different sorting algorithms according to predefined criteria catalogues which take account of the variance of the satellite signals, and determining at least two satellite presortings which determine GNSS satellites of which the satellite signals have a low variance according to the relevant predefined criteria catalogue; b) selecting a weighting function for weighting the satellite presortings ; c) creating a final satellite sorting by a weighting of the satellite presortings according to the relevant weighting function, so that a weighted final satellite sorting is produced; and d) carrying out a satellite combination selection on the basis of the final satellite sorting.

Abstract: A method for detecting a presence of interference during global navigation satellite system (GNSS)-based and inertial sensor signals (INS)-based localization of a vehicle includes determining localization results using a first filter configured to read in GNSS data and INS data, and storing a plurality of the determined localization results. The plurality of the determined localization results are after one another in terms of time and are each determined using the first filter. The method further includes analyzing the stored plurality of localization results using a second filter which differs from the first filter.
