Abstract:
The present invention is directed to system for providing precision location determination. The system includes a receiver configured for receiving both a first set of signals from a first constellation of satellites and a second set of signals from a second constellation of satellites. The system further includes a processor, which is connected to the receiver and is configured for processing the received satellite signals. The system further includes control programming for executing on the processor. The control programming is configured for determining a first location of the receiver based upon the first set of received signals and for determining a second location of the receiver based upon the second set of received signals. The control programming is further configured for correlating the first location and the second location to provide an enhanced location for the receiver.
