Abstract
A method and system for leveraging available navigation frequencies for determining position by creating a flexible navigation signal architecture is disclosed. Such an architecture is designed for customizing a navigation system by combining, adding, replacing or removing one or more removable RF section modules. At least one of the RF section modules has a mutually complementary frequency set with respect to a frequency set of one or more of the other RF section modules in the system.
Claims97
A method for determining a position, said method comprising:
- a) providing a plurality of RF section modules in a system for defining said position;
- and
- b) combining phase measurement data from said plurality of RF section modules wherein:
- (i) at least one RF section module is removable from said system;
- and
- (ii) said at least one removable RF section module has a mutually complementary frequency set with respect to a frequency set of one or more other RF section modules in said system.
A system for determining a position, said system comprising:
- a plurality of RF section modules, wherein said plurality of RF section modules includes at least one removable RF section module having a mutually complementary frequency set with respect to a frequency set of one or more other RF section modules in said system;
- and
- a combining means for combining phase measurement data from said plurality of RF section modules.
