Abstract:Accompanying with rapid development of the satellite navigation system, the single GPS system era is gradually transformed into a compatible multi global satellite navigation system (GNSS) era. Comparing with the single satellite navigation system, the combination of multiple systems will significantly increase the number of visible satellites and improve the geometric structure of satellite space. Multi system integrated navigation and positioning will be an inevitable trend. The filtering algorithm is an important method to reduce the random error of GNSS positioning. By using nonlinear filtering method, great majority of random errors can be eliminated, the precision of navigation can be improved. In this paper, the pseudo range differential positioning of GPS/BDS combination based on Kalman filtering is implemented and compared with the least square method. The experimental results show that the accuracy of the GPS/BDS pseudo range differential positioning based on Kalman filtering can reach the decimeter level. In the process of differential positioning, the pseudo range precision of the multi satellite system is obviously better than that of the single satellite system. The accuracy of the Kalman filtering solution is obviously superior to that of the least squares solution.
