PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a relative position among three or more moving bodies by interferometric positioning, and to efficiently determine the reliability of the interferometric positioning. SOLUTION: If three or more moving bodies can communicate with each other, the reference moving body transmits data including observation data obtained by an observation data obtaining means to the non reference moving body. The non reference moving body implements the interferometric positioning by using the data including the observation data obtained by the observation data obtaining means and the observation data received from the reference moving body, calculates the relative position between the reference moving body, and implements one of a process of transmitting the data including an integer bias calculated as a result of the interferometric positioning to the other non reference moving body and receiving a reliability determination result regarding the interferometric positioning, and a process of receiving the data including the integer bias from the other non reference moving body and determining the reliability of the interferometric positioning.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a positioning system for moving bodies for improving positioning accuracy. SOLUTION: The positioning system for moving bodies for performing positioning computations on the basis of positioning signals transmitted from GNSS satellites has a reference station and a moving body. The reference station has both a means arranged at a fixed location for measuring the speed of the reference station on the basis of the Doppler range of satellite radio waves acquired by observations at the reference station and generating correction data on the basis of results of the measurement and a means for transmitting the correction data to the moving body. The moving body has both a means for receiving the correction data transmitted from the reference station and a positioning means for position the moving body on the basis of both observation data of satellite radio waves acquired by observations at the moving body and received correction data.
