  • Publication number: 20220342085
    Abstract: A method can include receiving sensor data, receiving satellite observations, determining a positioning solution (e.g., PVT solution, PVA solution, kinematic parameters, etc.) based on the sensor data and the satellite observations. A system can include a sensor, a GNSS receiver, and a processor configured to determine a positioning solution based on readings from the sensor and the GNSS receiver.
