Techniques are provided which may be implemented using various methods and/or apparatuses in a vehicle to determine location relative to a roadside unit (RSU) or other nearby point of reference. Vehicles within a pre-designated range or within broadcast distance or otherwise geographically proximate to a roadside unit, through the use of broadcast or other messages sent by the vehicles and/or the RSU may share carrier GNSS phase measurement data, wherein the shared GNSS carrier phase measurement data may be utilized to control and coordinate vehicle movements, velocity and/or position by the RSU and/or to determine location of each vehicle relative to the RSU and/or to other vehicles or determine the absolute location of each vehicle. An RSU may coordinate vehicle access to an intersection, manage vehicle speeds and coordinate or control vehicle actions such as slowing, stopping, and changing lanes or sending a vehicle to a particular location.

Provided is an information processing method including: acquiring position information associated with installation points of a plurality of observation apparatuses based on signals received from a GNSS satellite by the plurality of observation apparatuses that has executed simultaneous observation, and position information associated with known control points; and generating, by a processor, a check network based on a first automatic generation algorithm by using the position information associated with the installation points of the plurality of observation apparatuses acquired and the position information associated with the known control points.

Described are methods, systems, and devices for determining position using Differential Global Navigation Satellite (DGNSS) measurements. Techniques described herein involve taking carrier phase measurements at a reference station or other GNSS receiver at a known location, and combining the carrier phase measurements with pseudorange measurements taken at the reference station to resolve carrier phase ambiguity and to, in combination with pseudorange measurements taken at a mobile device, obtain a differentially corrected measurement that can be used to estimate a position of the mobile device. The differentially corrected measurement can be a double differential measurement based on signals from a pair of GNSS satellites.

A method for reduced-outlier satellite positioning includes receiving a set of satellite positioning observations at a receiver; generating a first receiver position estimate; generating a set of posterior observation residual values from the set of satellite positioning observations and the first receiver position estimate; based on the set of posterior observation residual values, identifying a subset of the satellite positioning observations as statistical outliers; and after mitigating an effect of the statistical outliers, generating a second receiver position estimate having higher accuracy than the first receiver position estimate.

A determination device according to one embodiment includes an acquiring unit (231) and a determination unit (233). The acquiring unit (231) acquires positional information that is related to a terminal device installed at an arbitrary location serving as a reference for a path of an air vehicle and that is calculated on the basis of correction information that includes information on coordinates of a reference station associated with an area in which the terminal device is positioned and information based on a satellite signal received by the reference station. The determination unit (233) determines a flight path of the air vehicle on the basis of the positional information acquired by the acquiring unit.

Binary-phase-shift-key, phase-modulated waveforms with gigahertz bandwidths, suitable for kilowatt-class fiber amplifiers, can be narrowed back to the source laser’s linewidth via second-harmonic, sum-frequency, or difference-frequency generation in a second-order nonlinear crystal. The spectrum of an optical signal phase-modulated with a pseudo-random bit sequence (PRBS) waveform recovers its original optical spectrum when frequency-doubled using second-harmonic generation (SHG). Conceptually, the PRBS waveform is cancelled by the SHG process, and the underlying laser spectrum is converted to the second-harmonic wavelength as though the PRBS modulation were not present. The same cancellation is possible with sum-frequency generation (SFG) and difference frequency generation (DFG), making it possible to construct high-power, narrow-linewidth lasers at wavelengths from the visible to the long-wave infrared. Using ytterbium-, erbium-, thulium-, and neodymium-doped fibers with SHG, SFG and DFG processes allows generation of high-power beams with very narrowband optical spectra and wavelengths from below 400 nm to beyond 5 .Math.m.

According to certain embodiments, a method by a wireless device includes receiving, from a network node, a first indication of a system information data and broadcast status associated with on-demand delivery of the system information data. The wireless device transmits a request for the system information data to the network node while the wireless device is in Radio Resource Control, RRC, Connected Mode. Based on the broadcast status, the wireless device receives the on-demand delivery of the system information data from the network node.

A device may use Precise Point Positioning (PPP) correction information to generate Real Time Kinematic (RTK) correction information that can be sent to other devices for RTK-based positioning. In particular, according to some embodiments, the first device having access to PPP correction information may obtain the PPP correction information and generate RTK correction information by determining a virtual RTK base station location and generating, based on the PPP correction information, a virtual Multi-Constellation Multi-Frequency (MCMF) measurement corresponding to the determined virtual RTK base station location. This virtual MCMF measurement (and/or data derived therefrom) can then be sent to other devices as RTK correction information.

Disclosed are systems and methods for a power management framework that can computationally minimize the power consumption of a device with Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) enabled. The disclosed framework can analyze the operating characteristics of a device (e.g., applications executing, movement, battery level, signal strength and current battery consumption of the device, and the like), which can provide an indication of the device's need for updated location information, and determine a frequency for updating RTK. Thus, the disclosed framework provides computerized mechanisms for the automatic optimization between the need for an RTK power update and the device's capabilities for actually performing the update.
