Abstract: A system includes inertial sensors and a GPS. The system generates a first estimated vehicle velocity based on motion data and positioning data, generates a second estimated vehicle velocity based on the processed motion data and the first estimated vehicle velocity, and generates fused datasets indicative of position, velocity and attitude of a vehicle based on the processed motion data, the positioning data and the second estimated vehicle velocity. The generating the second estimated vehicle velocity includes: filtering the motion data, transforming the filtered motion data in a frequency domain based on the first estimated vehicle velocity, generating spectral power density signals, generating an estimated wheel angular frequency and an estimated wheel size based on the spectral power density signals, and generating the second estimated vehicle velocity as a function of the estimated wheel angular frequency and the estimated wheel size.

Abstract: A device including microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors are used in dead reckoning in conditions where Global Positioning System (GPS) signals or Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals are lost. The device is capable of tracking the location of the device after the GPS/GNSS signals are lost by using MEMS sensors such as accelerometers and gyroscopes. By calculating a misalignment angle between a forward axis of a sensor frame of the device and a forward axis of a vehicle frame using the data received from the MEMS sensors, the device can accurately calculate the location of a user or the vehicle of the device even without the GPS/GNSS signals. Accordingly, a device capable of tracking the location of the user riding in the vehicle in GPS/GNSS signals absent environment can be provided.

Abstract: A method corrects an ionospheric error affecting pseudo-range measurements in a GNSS receiver receiving a plurality of satellite signals from a plurality of satellites of the constellation of satellites. The method is performed in a navigation processing procedure performed at a GNSS receiver, receiving pseudo-range measurements previously calculated by the GNSS receiver obtained from a first carrier signal and a second carrier signal in the satellite signals, in particular in GPS bands L1 and L5. The method includes performing a correction procedure of the pseudo-range measurements including applying to the pseudo-range measurements corrections for predictable errors obtaining corrected pseudo-ranges and applying to the corrected pseudo-range measurements a further ionospheric error correction calculation to obtain further ionospheric error correction values.
