GSA launched the eCall testing campaign which was jointly designed and performed with the Joint Research Centre. The test campaign allowed both supporting manufacturers in reaching full compatibility with EGNSS signals and providing guidelines to the technical centre designated to grant EC type-approval of the vehicles. Fifteen devices were tested under static and dynamic scenarios. The tests were conducted using simulated signals characterised by different signal power levels and propagation conditions. The JRC has set up a test-bed specifically designed to assess the performance of the eCALL devices with respect to the technical requirements for compatibility with the positioning services provided by Galileo and EGNOS systems. This test-bed is based on a GNSS simulator from Spirent Communication (Spirent GSS9000). The GNSS simulator has been configured to generate the Open Service Signal of GPS L1, Galileo E1, and SBAS (Satellite-Based Augmentation System), in accordance with the specifications given in the eCALL Guidelines Report and with Galileo and EGNOS control documents. The variety and the volume of data lead to the generation of a unique dataset, which was useful to verify that the adoption of Galileo is quite mature, despite its early service provision stage, and provides a substantial contribution to reach the regulation objectives in the interest of EU citizens and in particular providing quality positioning information to enable a safer emergency service in European roads. At the same time, the campaign also allowed the manufacturers to identify margin for improvements in terms of capability to optimally acquire track and use EGNSS signals.","PeriodicalId":381025,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 32nd International Technical Meeting of the Satellite Division of The Institute of Navigation (ION GNSS+ 2019)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121847726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Particularly, in recent two decades, there is incremental work in autonomous surface vessel domain, mainly focusing on the design of maneuver controller. Typically, the proposed controllers are non-linear and involve several parameters need to be carefully tuned, as a consequence, few of the proposed algorithms have been validated in a practical platform. In this paper, an autonomous surface vessel prototype is firstly implemented, based on the practical platform and inspired by the control design in field of autonomous ground vehicle (AGV), a simplified bicycle model is proposed and accordingly an angle-constrained pure pursuit algorithm is tried in ASV, from the linear course and way-point experiments results, it is verified that the proposed model and control algorithm is effective in the ASV with the accuracy up to 40 cm approximately.","PeriodicalId":381025,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 32nd International Technical Meeting of the Satellite Division of The Institute of Navigation (ION GNSS+ 2019)","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130250540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In our previous work, we demonstrated a snap-shot multi-agent collaborative 3D-mapping aided (3DMA) GNSS localization algorithm to reduce the impact of these error sources on the position solution. However, a source of error in snap-shot algorithms is jump discontinuities in the position solution due to fluke noise measurements. Therefore, an approach which takes into account temporal correlation between agent positions will further increase the robustness of the system through jump discontinuity error mitigation. In this paper, we present a multi-epoch decentralized collaborative localization algorithm for urban navigation using 3DMA GNSS and inter-agent ranging. The algorithm is a multi-epoch variant of our previous snap-shot multi-agent collaborative 3DMA localization algorithm and uses Intelligent Urban Positioning (IUP) and ambiguity mitigation by constraining an agents probability distribution using its neighbors. The key additions that extend our prior algorithm to a multi-epoch framework are the inclusion of a velocity estimation framework using banks of Extended Kalman filters and a discretized Bayes filter prediction step to propagate a position probability distribution in time. Furthermore, the methodology is applicable to sparsely connected asynchronous networks, and has limited information exchange. The proposed method is validated on simulated datasets in an urban area of Champaign, Illinois with multiple agents in a variety of scenarios. We demonstrate improved performance in terms of positioning accuracy. We also analyze the impact of network connectivity on positioning accuracy.","PeriodicalId":381025,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 32nd International Technical Meeting of the Satellite Division of The Institute of Navigation (ION GNSS+ 2019)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124557469","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
