GNSS Carrier Phase-Based Attitude Determination

The GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) are a valid aid in support of the aeronautic science. GNSS technology has been successfully implemented in aircraft design, in order to provide accurate position, velocity and heading estimations. Although it does not yet comply with aviation integrity requirements, GNSS-based aircraft navigation is one of the alternative means to traditional dead-reckoning systems. It can provide fast, accurate, and driftless positioning solutions. Additionally, ground-based GNSS receivers may be employed to aid navigation in critical applications, such as precision approaches and landings.
