SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE HEADING ANGLE OF A VEHICLE

摘要

A system and method for determining the heading angle of a vehicle includes first and second antennas (12, 14) associated with the vehicle. The first and second antennas (12, 14) are configured to receive signals comprising global positioning system data. A receiver front end (18) is configured to receive the signals comprising global positioning system data. An electronic data processor (32) is capable of receiving the global positioning system data from the receiver front end (18). The data processor (32) is configured or programmed to execute a method to determine the attitude of the vehicle which may include the heading angle of the vehicle.
