System and method for compensating for faulty measurements

摘要

Satellite navigation measurements of signals are received from global navigation satellites for a measurement epoch (402 in Figure 4). A Kalman filter is used to calculate a state of the global navigation satellites for the measurement epoch based on the satellite navigation measurements (404), wherein said state of the global navigation satellites is calculated using a first closed form update equation. A faulty measurement in the plurality of satellite navigation measurements for the measurement epoch is detected (406). A revised state, of the plurality of global navigation satellites for the measurement epoch that compensates for the faulty measurement, is calculated, (408) using said calculated state of the plurality of global navigation satellites and using a revised closed- form update equation comprising the first closed- form update equation modified with respect to the faulty measurement.
