An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code; the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: receive (600) an indication indicating that positioning accuracy information associated with at least one potential future position of a terminal is to be provided to; and provide (604) the positioning accuracy information associated with the at least one potential future position of the terminal.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may determine its position by receiving locations from one or more other UEs capable of network-based positioning. For example, a second UE may determine its location using network-based positioning and may transmit its location information to the first UE. The first UE may determine its location based on the received location information (e.g., by calculating a weighted average of different locations, by setting its location to be the same as the received location). In some cases, the first UE may receive location information from other UEs during or after a discovery process with other UEs. In some other cases, the first UE may receive messages (e.g., periodic safety messages) from the other UEs, and the messages may each include location information of the respective other UEs.

Disclosed is representing distant objects for analysis of satellite line-of-sight visibility from a grid of points by constructing a first 3D model of foreground objects that obscure line-of-sight visibility of satellites from a grid of points, wherein the first 3D model is at a first resolution, where spacing of grid points denotes obstruction edges, constructing a second 3D model of background objects that are more than a threshold distance away and that object obscure line-of-sight visibility of satellites from the grid of points, wherein the second 3D model is at a second resolution that is different from and coarser than the first resolution, calculating a line-of-sight visibility of the satellites from the grid of points using a combination of the first and second 3D models, and responding to a query for an area by providing the calculated line-of-sight visibility of the satellites for points of the grid within the area.

There has been a problem that because in a section where a road forks from a main lane or merges the main lane, the number of lanes increases or decreases, breakage of a lane line and existence of other vehicles hinder the lane line from being read and hence generation of a target course becomes unstable. A course generation apparatus according to the present disclosure is provided with a prohibition-section determination unit that determines, in the case of forking from a main lane or merging with the main lane, that a present section is an environmental-information-course usage prohibition section, until a time when a vehicle position passes through a forking completion point or a merging completion point, and with a course selection unit that selects an environmental information course or a route-information course in a normal time and selects the route-information course in the environmental-information-course usage prohibition section.

Methods and systems are provided for geocoding. An example method encompasses receiving, from a delivery data corpus, a delivery data comprising one or more addresses. The method thereafter comprises identifying, one or more tokens from said one or more addresses. Further the method leads to calculating, for each of said one or more tokens, an end token score and a sub-sequence token score. The method thereafter encompasses chunking, said one or more addresses based on said end token score and said sub-sequence token score to generate one or more address chunks. Further the method comprises generating, one or more polygon regions for each generated address chunks based on said chunking. Thereafter the method comprises merging, one or more generated polygon regions for each of the generated address chunks.

A PVT calculation device includes a memory; and one or more processors in communication with the memory configured to perform operations including: receiving observations and ephemerides from satellites to obtain PVT data of the satellites and predicted PVT results of the receiver; setting up observation functions respectively corresponding to the satellites; calculating by a least square solution first estimated PVT results of the receiver based on the observation functions; iteratively eliminating by a Random-Sampling Iterative Kalman Filter (RSIKF) algorithm fault observation functions from the observation functions in an inner cluster until no fault observation functions detected in the inner cluster; calculating by the RSIKF algorithm a second estimated PVT results of the receiver using the observation functions in the inner cluster; and outputting final estimated PVT results of the receiver. The PVT calculation device may calculate the PVT results of the receiver with improved accuracy and stability.

One or more computer processors encode a plurality of time sequenced global position system (GPS) datapoints onto a grided dimensional area; determine a general trajectory between each time sequenced GPS datapoint in the plurality of encoded time sequenced GPS datapoints and a subsequent encoded time sequenced GPS datapoint; cluster the encoded time sequenced GPS datapoints based on a respective determined trajectory with a plurality of encoded historical GPS datapoints; calculate an azimuth for each encoded time sequenced GPS datapoint in the plurality of time sequenced GPS datapoints utilizing a plurality of adjacent historical GPS datapoints contained within a respective cluster; generate a plurality of interpolated GPS datapoints utilizing calculated azimuths, determined general trajectories, and historical GPS datapoints; and aggregate the generated interpolated GPS datapoints with the plurality of time sequenced GPS datapoints into an interpolated route, wherein each GPS datapoint in the interpolated route is within respective azimuth thresholds.

System, computer program products, and methods for detecting and compensating for sensor interference. Sensor interference may result from environmental interference or from electronic signal interference. Sensor location input may be adapted or rejected when interference is detected. The system can monitor the accuracy, as well as the integrity, of all navigation sensors. The system can also automatically eliminate the faulty or compromised data from a final navigation solution.

There is provided mechanisms for AD, or at least ADAS, aided manoeuvring of a vehicle. A method includes selecting between using a CRLS based positioning system and a GNSS based positioning system for aiding manoeuvring of the vehicle. Which positioning system to select is based on comparing a first error determined for the CRLS based positioning system to a second error determined for the GNSS based positioning system. The positioning system with smallest error is selected. The method comprises aiding the manoeuvring of the vehicle using the selected positioning system. The manoeuvring pertains to reversing of the vehicle.

A device implementing a system for estimating device position includes at least one processor configured to receive a first sensor measurement of a device at a first time, the first sensor measurement having a first variance in measurement error, and to receive a second sensor measurement of the device at a second time, the second sensor measurement having a second variance in measurement error. The at least one processor is further configured to determine a speed of the device based on at least one of the first or second sensor measurements, and adjust the second variance in measurement error based on the determined speed. The at least one processor is further configured to estimate a device position based at least in part on the first variance in measurement error and the adjusted second variance in measurement error.
