5. CONCLUSIONS
The purpose of this paper was to present a method that has been
developed at the University of Calgary for high precision
kinematic positioning using a single dual-frequency GPS
receiver. P), the software developed at the University of
Calgary, was also described. Since the PPP approach does not
require the deployment of base stations, errors associated with
reference station coordinates as well as error de-correlation
with increasing rover-reference receiver distance do not apply.
Aside from globally consistent accuracy (rivaling DGPS
accuracy in many instances), the PPP approach offers a
significant cost saving since base stations do not need to be
deployed.
Two airborne kinematic data sets have been analyzed and
compared with other available solutions. It was found that the
P^ solution agrees well with the GIPSY/OASIS II solution
provided by JPL, with differences at the centimetre level in the
horizontal, and up to a couple of decimetres in the vertical.
About half of the height discrepancy between these two
solutions can be attributed to different precise clock product
resolutions — 5 minutes for P?, and 1 second for JPL.
The second data set presented in this paper showed that the PPP
approach would be more accurate than the DGPS approach in
some instances especially over long baselines since it does not
depend on error de-correlation between the rover and reference
receivers or the coordinates of the reference receivers. As such,
it is capable of providing a globally consistent solution with
reduced logistical complexity in the field.
