Abstract: Methods and systems for measuring coordinates of a target, particularly under strong multipath conditions, are described. A satellite navigation system antenna and a tilt sensor are mounted on a range pole, with the sensor at the pole's bottom tip. Signals from the antenna and tilt sensor are provided to a receiver, which computes the antenna's coordinates from the antenna signals, and the pole tips position from the computed coordinates and the tilt data. The operator places the pole tip on the target and swings the pole by hand over an angle sector of 15 degrees while keeping the tip on the target. Height of the target can be computed with a single measurement set, and X-Y coordinates with just three measurement sets. The use of additional measurements reduces errors in the target's coordinates since multipath errors are uncorrelated during movement of the antenna. Vertical alignment of the pole is unnecessary.

Abstract: A receiver of a radio frequency signal having a pseudo-random noise (PRN) code, and techniques of processing such a signal that are especially adapted for ranging applications. A signal corresponding to the PRN code is locally generated and used for decoding the received signal in a manner to reduce ranging errors that can result when multipath (delayed) versions of the radio frequency signal are also present. A significant application of the receiver and signal processing techniques of the present invention is in a Global Positioning System (GPS), wherein a number of such signals from several satellites are simultaneously received and processed in order to obtain information of the position, movement, or the like, of the receiver. A delay locked loop (DLL) correlator, provided in each of the receiver's multiple processing channels, locks onto a line of sight signal from one of the satellites with the effect of any multipath signal(s) being significantly reduced.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for generating the estimates of receiver's coordinates and/or time offset for a moment of time tn without large errors caused by short-term shading of a part of the observable global positioning satellites and also without large dynamic errors caused by the receiver movement. The receiver may be stationary or mobile (i.e., rovering). A set of snapshot-solution values for the position coordinates and time offset of the receiver at the time moment tn, and a set of predicted values for the position coordinates and time offset of the receiver at the time moment tn are generated. The accuracy of each of these sets are determined, and a set of refined estimates for the position and time offset of the receiver is generated based the snapshot solution values, the predicted position values, and the accuracies.
