Abstract
This study presents a new branch and bound algorithm designed for the global optimization of the fractional squared least squares model for GPS localization. The algorithm incorporates a novel underestimation approach that provides theoretically superior lower bounds while requiring a comparable computational effort to the current approach. Numerical results demonstrate the substantial efficiency enhancements of the proposed algorithm over the existing algorithm.
