Abstract

A navigational apparatus includes a receiver, two antennas, and a computational unit to receive satellite positional signals and provides corrected position, azimuth, and pitch readings. The computational unit: determines differences in the signal carrier measurements output by the receiver; rejects or accepts carrier ambiguity candidates based on predefined criteria; and estimates multipath on successive pairs of carrier observations to obtain the corrected readings.
