Abstract:
Embodiments for satellite subset selection for use in monitoring the integrity of computed navigation solutions are disclosed. In one embodiment, a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver comprises: a processing device configured to: group a plurality of satellites in view of the GNSS receiver into a plurality of subsets, wherein a satellite of the plurality of satellites is included in at most one subset of the plurality of subsets, wherein each subset of the plurality of subsets includes at least one satellite of the plurality of satellites and less than all satellites of the plurality of satellites, and wherein at least one subset includes more than one satellite; calculate a plurality of navigation sub-solutions, wherein each navigation sub-solution of the plurality of navigation sub-solutions is calculated with at least one different subset of the plurality of subsets excluded; and calculate a protection level.
