    摘要: Positioning, navigation, and timing (“PNT”) signals, such as those used in GNSS or LORAN systems, may be vulnerable to spoofing attacks. To generate trustworthy time and location data at a receiver, one must at least reduce the likelihood of or be capable of detecting spoofing attacks. Embodiments of the present invention, as presented herein, provide solutions for detecting spoofing of PNT signals. Various aspects incorporated into the described embodiments which assist in detecting spoofing attacks may include but are not limited to: monitoring the SNR of received PNT signals of a first modality and switching over to an alternate PNT modality when an anomaly is detected, comparing data associated with signals of multiple PNT modalities to identify a discrepancy indicative of spoofing on one of the multiple PNT modalities, and implementing a security regime to prevent spoofers from being able to produce perceivably authentic, but corrupt, replica signals of a PNT modality.

    摘要: A method to support client device position discovery within a building includes ascribing building position coordinates to beacons within the building. The building position coordinates are converted to physical position coordinates. The physical position coordinates are augmented with at least one additional parameter that supports position resolution. A client device communicates with accessed beacons positioned within the building. A beacon location database characterizing the physical locations of the accessed beacons is also accessed. The physical location of the client device is computed based upon the physical locations of the accessed beacons.

    摘要: Position location signaling system, apparatus, and method are disclosed. Position location beacons can each be configured to transmit a frequency interlaced subset of orthogonal frequencies spanning substantially an entire channel bandwidth. The orthogonal frequencies can be pseudorandomly or uniformly spaced, and each beacon can be allocated an equal number of orthogonal frequencies. Each frequency of the interlaced subset of orthogonal frequencies can be modulated with an element of a predetermined data sequence. A mobile device can receive one or more of the beacon signals and determine a position using a position location algorithm that determines position in part on an arrival time of the beacon signal. Where the mobile device can receive three or more beacon signals, the mobile device can perform position location by trilateration to the beacon positions based, for example, on a time difference of arrival.

    摘要: A system for improving the accuracy of location coordinate determined in a survey of a chosen region, using a computer. A grid of spaced apart points is imposed on the region, and a set of survey control points is provided. A "near set" of nearest survey control points is associated with each grid point. For each grid point, a transformation T from a first (global) datum and coordinate system to a second (local) datum and coordinate system is determined that minimizes a collective difference between coordinates of each survey control point in the near set and the corresponding coordinates of that survey control point under the transformation T. For one, two or three coordinates of each grid point, a difference .DELTA. between the coordinate(s) of the grid point in the near set and the corresponding coordinate(s) of that grid point under the transformation T is computed. An interpolation function is determined that approximately matches the coordinate(s) difference .DELTA. at each grid point. The interpolation function provides a continuous datum-to-datum mapping between all points of the first and the second coordinate systems. Determination of location of each survey point may use GPS, GLONASS, modified LEO, LORAN or any other suitable location determination system.
