Instantaneous Inertial and Precise Point Positioning Software System for Mobile Devices
FY 2019-20 · 2019-09-01
Summary
The proposed project is to develop an instant precise positioning software for mobile devices applications, which focuses on the development and implementation of new methods and algorithms to process carrier phase measurements from next generation mobile devices to enable: (1) multi-constellation and multi-frequency GNSS positioning performance at decimeter to sub-meter accuracy; (2) integrated GNSS and multi-sensor fusion for continuous precise positioning in challenging environments; (3) software library to run on mobile devices.
The software system development is a response to strong industry demand as PPI has been approached by major smartphone makers to help develop precise location capability for their mobile devices.

Description (French)
Le projet proposé consiste à développer un logiciel de positionnement instantané et précis pour les applications d'appareils mobiles, qui se concentre sur le développement et l'implémentation de nouvelles méthodes et algorithmes pour traiter les mesures de phase des porteuses des appareils mobiles de prochaine génération pour permettre : (1) performances de positionnement géolocalisation et navigation par un système de satellites (GNSS) multi-constellations et multi-fréquences de précision du décimètre au sous-mètre ; (2) intégration GNSS et fusion multi capteurs pour un positionnement précis continu dans des environnements difficiles ; (3) bibliothèque de logiciels à exécuter sur appareils portables. Le développement du système logiciel est une réponse à la forte demande de l'industrie car PPI a été approché par les principaux fabricants de téléphones intelligents pour les aider à développer une capacité de localisation précise pour leurs appareils mobiles.
