Abstract
A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver for performing GNSS outlier detection and rejection is provided. When the GNSS receiver receives GNSS signals from satellites in the GNSS, the GNSS receiver processes the GNSS signals to perform positioning. Then, the GNSS receiver sequentially performs a Doppler-pseudorange comparison, a Random Sampling Consensus (RANSAC) check for selected subsets of the satellites, and a history-based check for the satellites to determine a status of each satellites as an outlier or an inlier. Specifically, in the RANSAC check, the subsets of the satellites are selected using results of the Doppler-pseudorange comparison as inputs to filter the satellites, thus reducing the number of subsets needed for computation in the RANSAC check. The status of the satellites are recorded for the history-based check, which further exploits the correlations of outliers across time.
