Abstract
An efficient covariance matrix computation method is disclosed in connection with certain GNSS applications, including Advanced Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (ARAIM) and geometry screening. The system and method of the present application enable computation of multiple covariance matrices with substantially greater efficiency than previous approaches, including the rank-one update formula. For example, the system and method of the present application advantageously involves substantially fewer and simpler arithmetic operations than previous approaches. In addition, unlike the rank-one update formula, the system and method of the present application can be used to compute the subsolution in which all the satellites of a given constellation are removed.
