Abstract: Dead reckoning combined with GNSS-aided map-matching improves accuracy and reliability of vehicle navigation. A map-match navigation module in a handheld device sends map-match feedback messages to a vehicle state estimator via a port. The module also accepts vehicle speed and inertial navigation data from sensors mounted in the vehicle.

Abstract: A mobile location system. The GPS location system includes a radio positioning system (RPS) for determining times-of arrival at several locations for a radio positioning signal transmitted from a mobile unit and then using the times-of-arrival for determining an RPS-based position and time for the mobile unit. The mobile unit uses the RPS-based position and time for focusing a code phase search to a narrow range for rapidly acquiring a GPS signal.

Abstract: A mobile GPS location system. The location system includes a mobile radio transceiver for transmitting a radio positioning signal and receiving a responsive radio system signal having a radio positioning system (RPS)-based time and position derived from the radio positioning signal; a mobile global positioning system (GPS) receiver; and a code range selector using the RPS-based time and position for selecting a code search range. The mobile GPS receiver uses the code search range for focusing a code phase search to a narrow range for rapidly acquiring a GPS signal. The RPS-based time and position are derived from a plurality of radio signal times-of-arrival (TOA)s determined by a plurality of system units from the radio positioning signal.

Abstract: A GPS receiver and method using alternating “A” and “B” integration time segments. The polarities of certain GPS data bits are known beforehand and their expected reception times are known. The GPS signal in 10 millisecond “A” time segments and “B” time segments is depolarized according to the known polarities. The depolarized GPS signal during an “A” time period made up of all the “A” time segments is integrated for providing an “A” time period magnitude for each code phase. Likewise, the depolarized GPS signal during a “B” time period made up of all the “B” time segments is integrated for providing a “B” time period magnitude for each potential GPS code phase. The strongest of the time period magnitudes is compared to a correlation threshold for selecting a code phase for signal acquisition.

Abstract: A method for determining J location fix coordinates, such as (x,y,z,b) for J=2-4, for a selected location, such as a mobile station location, with increased accuracy, for a satellite-based or ground-based location determination (LD) system such as GPS, GLONASS or LORAN. Pseudorange corrections for the pseudorange values measured at the reference station approximately at an observation time t' are used to correct the pseudorange values measured at the selected location. Location fix coordinates are computed from the pseudorange values at the selected location or at the reference station, using an exact, invertible transformation T(t') between the J location fix coordinates and J pseudorange values. Information including the location fix coordinates is transmitted from one station to another with a reduced or minimal number of information bytes and with small dynamic ranges.
