    Abstract: A method for use in vehicle attitude determination includes generating GPS attitude solutions for a vehicle using three or more antennas receiving GPS signals from two or more space vehicles. An inertial navigation system is initialized by setting the attitude of the inertial navigation system to a GPS attitude solution generated for the vehicle and/or the attitude of the inertial navigation system is updated using the GPS attitude solutions generated for the vehicle or GPS estimated attitude error generated for the vehicle. A system for use in vehicle navigation is also provided. The system generally includes three or more GPS antenna/receiver sets associated with a vehicle, an inertial measurement unit that provides inertial measurements for the vehicle, a processing unit of the system having the capability for generating GPS attitude computations for the vehicle using the three or more GPS antenna/receiver sets and signals from two or more space vehicles; the GPS attitude computations include at least one of absolute attitudes and estimated attitude errors. The processing unit of the system also includes a filter for generating estimates of attitude for the vehicle using the inertial measurements from the inertial measurement unit and the attitude computations.

    Abstract: A multipath detection method for use in a GPS position determination system includes providing a code pseudorange measurement representative of a range of an antenna to a space vehicle and a carrier phase pseudorange measurement representative of the range of the antenna to the space vehicle. A code-carrier measurement difference is then generated between the code pseudorange measurement and the carrier phase pseudorange measurement. This code-carrier measurement difference is examined to determine if a multipath component is present. If the difference indicates that multipath is likely to be present, use of such measurements in computing position solutions, such as attitude solutions, is avoided. A multipath detection system for carrying out the method is also described.
