A key requirement of autonomous vehicle applications is a reliable, accurate, and robust positioning (aka) localization solution. Key navigation, planning and decision operations cannot happen without dependable positioning.
The following is from “TerraStar X Precise Positioning Enables Autonomous Applications”, presented by Sara Masterson at Multi GNSS Asia, 2018.
This paper describes a method for mapping interference by using a model of power loss over distance to create a map of the likelihood of the position of the interferer.
Scanning LiDAR sensors have become a standard component in most mobile mapping systems, and they provide an impressive level of detail in 3-dimensions...
In its simplest form, dead reckoning is the estimation of a position without any external input save a starting point. In this forum external input generally refers to GNSS satellites and dead reckoning...
GNSS interferers come in many forms and classifications. Some are intentional, purpose built in-band jammers, but many are unintentional, originating from sources such as radio, TV, wireless communication and radars...
The antenna is the first component in a positioning system, which processes the GNSS and correction signals received from multiple satellites. The precision of a position is strongly related to the performance of the GNSS antenna used...
It can be a difficult task trying to determine what kind of GNSS/INS solution will meet the needs of a specific application...
