An Effective Solution to Improve GPS Position Precision

Abstract:

The sudden jump in position data will limit the application of single GPS in precision positioning field. In this paper, a simple real-time method to remove GPS position jump was presented. The result of the static test and kinematical test show that the method was effective on removing the position jump and highlight the short-term positioning precision of single GPS. Besides, it has little computational load and easy to be implemented real time.
