VEHICLE POSITIONING APPARATUS AND METHOD

摘要

A vehicle positioning apparatus and method are provided that are capable of more accurately measuring the position of a traveling vehicle without interoperating with a DGPS. The method includes calculating a position of the traveling vehicle based on coordinates of the respective GPS satellites shared by a surrounding vehicle and the traveling vehicle. In addition, a positon coordinate is calculated of the surrounding vehicle measured by the reference of the traveling vehicle.

主权项

1. A vehicle positioning apparatus, comprising:
a memory configured to store program instructions; and a processor configured to execute the program instructions, the program instructions when executed configured to: receive coordinates of global positioning system (GPS) satellites and pseudo distances for each of the GPS satellites from a first vehicle; receive coordinates of the GPS satellites from the GPS satellites and calculate pseudo distances for each of the GPS satellites; measure a coordinate of the first vehicle by a reference of a traveling vehicle; calculate a position of the traveling vehicle based on the coordinates of GPS satellites and the pseudo distances for each of the GPS satellites, calculate the coordinates of the GPS satellites and the pseudo distances for each of the GPS satellites, and calculate the coordinate of the first vehicle.
