The development of Precise GPS Positioning
What is Precise GPS Positioning? Carrier-phase measurement Relative positioning
Ambiguity Resolution: The process to convert ambiguity-free to ambiguity-fixed. What about the ‘dead time’?
Single-epoch AR & single- epoch/cm-level (‘carrier range’) GPS positioning is a very powerful technique, which when carried out in real-time.
The baseline issue Distance-dependent biases grows Reliable ambiguity resolution
Decimeter-level positioning accuracy has been possible even when the baseline has been up to hundreds of kilometers in length via, e.g. the implementation of network GPS carrier phase-based positioning techniques.

Instrumentation Developments Dual-frequency GPS receivers, measuring CPH and PR Advances in receiver electronics, antennas and data processing algorithms Improved multipath mitigation within the GPS receivers/antennas Use GLONASS as a complementary system
The development for precise GPS positioning main in receiver hardware, operational procedures, the Internet and mobile communications and the combination of GPS with GLONASS, the development of the Galileo system.
