Abstract: Multi Sensor Integrity Systems become more and more important for actual Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) applications. Therefore, two concepts are investigated in this work: multi GNSS Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) and integrity crosschecks of PNT solutions between independent sensors. In this paper, we present our system design to combine these two approaches. Therefore, three different RAIM algorithms are implemented in a software-defined GNSS receiver. The RAIM algorithms as well as the integrity checks of the multi-sensor systems are applied in terrestrial outdoor scenarios, using received real satellite signals.
