To improve the performance of GNSS receivers in hostile environments, we consider a Cooperative Positioning approach, where receivers exchange data and information with their neighbors. We focus on unstructured P2P networks, without a control or fusion center. We show that a significant reduction of the acquisition time can indeed by achieved when GNSS aiding quantities like Doppler, satellite Carrierto-Noise ratio and secondary code delay are provided by some aiding peers. The approach is clearly similar to that of Assisted GNSS, but does not require a fixed infrastructure and may better take into account the local environment. Since, in the near future, multi-standard devices will be more and more inter-connected, GNSS Cooperative Positioning may soon become an alternative or a complement to fixed augmentation systems

Abstract

To improve the performance of GNSS receivers in hostile environments, we consider a Cooperative Positioning approach, where receivers exchange data and information with their neighbors. We focus on unstructured P2P networks, without a control or fusion center. We show that a significant reduction of the acquisition time can indeed by achieved when GNSS aiding quantities like Doppler, satellite Carrierto-Noise ratio and secondary code delay are provided by some aiding peers. The approach is clearly similar to that of Assisted GNSS, but does not require a fixed infrastructure and may better take into account the local environment. Since, in the near future, multi-standard devices will be more and more inter-connected, GNSS Cooperative Positioning may soon become an alternative or a complement to fixed augmentation systems
