| Abstract: | High-accuracy real-time GPS-based attitude determination requires that integer ambiguities be resolved very quickly so that
the attitude angles can be output with minimum delay. This article describes an attitude determination algorithm that can
resolve integer ambiguities instantaneously, relative to one antenna of a multi-antenna array configuration. The carrier phase
and pseudorange observations are used with fixed baseline length constraints and fiberoptic gyro data. Real-time stochastic
model improvement using empirical elevation-dependent standard deviation function and an estimated scale factor are a feature
of this algorithm. Integer ambiguity search using the LAMBDA method, sophisticated validation criteria, and an adaptive procedure
has also been implemented within the software. An experiment was carried out using four Leica dual-frequency GPS receivers
(but only the L1 carrier phase and pseudorange data were used) and a low-cost fiberoptic on a car. The results indicate that
integer ambiguities can be resolved on a single-epoch basis with a 98.9% success rate. ? 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. |
