Abstract
A method for computing and applying alternative uncertainty limits is provided. The method includes generating a main solution from a plurality of received measurement signals. A solution separation is applied using a filter bank to generate sub-solutions from the received plurality of measurement signals. Each sub-solution uses all of the measurement signals from the plurality of measurement signals except one measurement signal to generate the associated sub-solution. Each sub-solution excludes a different measurement signal. One sub-solution is selected as fault free. A difference between the main solution and the selected sub-solution is determined. The determined difference is added to a rare normal protection limit to create a solution with improved integrity bounding. The solution with improved integrity bounding is then implemented.
