Design and Evaluation of Integrity Algorithms for PPP in Kinematic Applications

Kazuma Gunning, Juan Blanch, Todd Walter, Lance de Groot, Laura Norman

Abstract: UAV and autonomous platforms can greatly benefit from an assured position solution with high integrity error bounds. The expected high degree of connectivity in these vehicles will allow users to receive real time precise clock and ephemeris corrections, which enable the use of Precise Point Positioning techniques. Up to now, these techniques have mostly been used to provide high accuracy, rather than focusing on high integrity applications. In this paper we apply the methodology and algorithms used in aviation to determine position error bounds with high integrity (or protection levels) for a PPP position solution.
