An Urban Positioning Approach Applying Differential Methods to Commercial FM Radio Emissions for Ground Mobile Use

Joseph Cisneros, David Kelley, and Louis A. Greenbaum

Abstract:	Traditional GPS based positiondeterminatbn methods have significant shortcomings when applied to the dense urban environment of IVHS applications. An alternative method employing Commercial FM Broadcasting Stations in conjunction with a differential reference station is described. The propagation issues associated with ground based signals at 100 MHz are reviewed. Test data is presented. Comparison with traditional GPS operation is made.
