Experimental Evaluation of Smartphone Accelerometer and Low-Cost Dual Frequency GNSS Sensors for Deformation Monitoring

Smartphone accelerometers and low-cost Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) equipment have faced rapid and important advancement, opening a new door to deformation monitoring applications such as landslide, plate tectonics and structural health monitoring (SHM). The precision potential and operational feasibility of the equipment play an...

Precise regional L5 positioning with IRNSS and QZSS: stand-alone and combined

In this contribution we analyze the single-frequency L5 positioning capabilities of the two regional satellite navigation systems IRNSS and QZSS, stand alone as well as combined. The positioning analysis is done for two different baselines, having a mix of receivers, providing ambiguity-float and ambiguity-fixed positioning for models with...

Australia-first high-precision positioning results with new Japanese QZSS regional satellite system

The Japanese Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) has recently (October 2017) reached its first 4-satellite constellation. In this contribution, the standalone performance of this 4-satellite QZSS constellation is assessed by means of its triple-frequency (L1 + L2 + L5) real-time kinematic (RTK) integer ambiguity resolution and precise...
