The ADOP and PDOP: Two Complementary Diagnostics for GNSS Positioning

Ambiguity dilution of precision (ADOP) and position dilution of precision (PDOP) are two popular scalar-diagnostics used in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning. Where the ADOP is a predictor for carrier-phase ambiguity resolution performance, the PDOP is meant to predict the receiver-satellite geometry's capability for...

A new GLONASS FDMA model

We introduce a new formulation of the double-differenced GLONASS FDMA model. It closely resembles that of CDMA-based systems and it guarantees the estimability of the newly defined GLONASS ambiguities. The formulation is made possible because of our defining new concept of integer-estimability and the analytical construction of a special...
