First, the barycenter of the triangle of reference stations for ambiguity resolution is taken as a reference point. The satellite which has the largest elevation angle with the reference point is selected as a reference satellite. The parameters for constructing the weight matrix of carrier phase observation and the criteria for checking the correctness of integer ambiguity resolution of a network are obtained. Then, the wide ambiguity is calculated by a linear combination method of dualband observation. And the LI ambiguity is obtained by a nonionosphere combination method. The Kalman filter is introduced to refine the floating-point solution of ambiguity and estimate the real-time tropospheric delay. Finally, the cofactor matrix of ambiguity is de-correlated by Z-transformation to reduce the searching space of the integer ambiguity solution and improve the efficiency of the least-squares ambiguity decorrelation adjustment (LAMBDA) algorithm. The experimental results show that this method can reliably obtain the integer ambiguity solution among multi-reference stations with 40 epochs.展开更多

Various location-centric routing protocols have been suggested in literature for road safety ITS applications considering urban and highway traffic environment. This paper characterizes vehicular environments based on real traffic data and investigates the evolution of location-centric data dissemination. The current study is carded out with three main objectives: (i) to analyze the impact of dynamic traffic environment on the design of data dissemination techniques, (ii) to characterize location-centric data dissemination in terms of functional and qualitative behavior of protocols, properties, and strengths and weaknesses, and (iii) to find some future research directions in information dissemination based on location. Vehicular traffic environments have been classified into three categories based on physical characteristics such as speed, inter-vehicular distance, neighborhood stability, traffic volume, etc. Real traffic data is considered to analyze on-road traffic environments based on the measurement of physical parameters and weather conditions. Design issues are identified in incorporating physical parameters and weather conditions into data dissemination. Functional and qualitative characteristics of location-centric techniques are explored considering urban and highway environments. Comparative analysis of location-centric techniques is carded out for both urban and highway environments individually based on some unique and common characteristics of the environments. Finally, some future research directions are identified in the area based on the detailed investigation of traffic environments and location-centric data dissemination techniques.展开更多
