Description
Springer GPS Theory Algorithms and Applications by Guochang Xu
This, the second edition of the hugely practical reference and handbook describes kinematic, static and dynamic Global Positioning System theory and applications. It is primarily based upon source-code descriptions of the KSGSoft program developed by the author and his colleagues and used in the AGMASCO project of the EU. This is the first book to report the unified GPS data processing method and algorithm that uses equations for selectively eliminated equivalent observations.
Table of contents : - Coordinate and Time Systems.- Satellite Orbits.- GPS Observables.- Physical Influences of GPS Surveying.- GPS Observation Equations and Equivalence Properties.- Adjustment and Filtering Methods.- Cycle Slip Detection and Ambiguity Resolution.- Parameterisation and Algorithms of GPS Data Processing.- Applications of GPS Theory and Algorithms.- Perturbed Orbit and its Determination.- Discussions.
