A navigation receiver system provides real-time precise relative positioning in cooperation with an associated carrier phase receiver. The navigation receiver system and the associated carrier phase receiver both sample signals during a single epoch, and the associated carrier phase receiver processes the received signals to provide and transmit first carrier phase measurement data. The navigation receiver system comprises a data link receiver that receives the first carrier phase measurement data from the associated carrier phase receiver, and a carrier phase receiver that receives carrier phase signals during the sampling epoch, and processes the carrier phase signals to provide a second carrier phase measurement data. The navigation system receiver also includes a processing unit that receives the first carrier phase measurement data and the second carrier phase measurement data and computes carrier phase difference measurements. The processing unit applies a local-minima search technique to the carrier phase difference measurements to resolve carrier phase integer ambiguities within the subspace of local minima, wherein the resolved carrier phase integers are subsequently used to determine a precise relative position of the navigation receiver system with respect to the associated carrier phase receiver. The present invention provides high precision, real-time position data from a signal time epoch. That is, the present invention resolves the integer ambiguities in carrier phase measurements with a single snap shot of the measurements. In addition, the system recovers very quickly following a signal interruption.
