Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method and system for providing and enhanced navigation solution of a device within a platform (such as for example person, vehicle, or vessel of any type), wherein the device is within the platform and may be strapped or non-strapped to the platform, wherein in case of non-strapped the mobility of the device may be constrained or unconstrained within the platform, wherein the enhancement of the navigation solution is through multiple sensor assemblies, wherein the multiple sensors assemblies are not necessarily all on the device, and wherein the multiple sensors assemblies are within the platform. This method works for a navigation solution utilizing measurements from sensors (such as for example, accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers etc.) whether in the presence or in the absence of absolute navigational information (such as, for example, GNSS or WiFi positioning).
