A modified between‐receiver single‐difference‐based fault detection and exclusion algorithm for real‐time kinematic positioning
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract With the increasing number of available satellites from multi‐global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) and their applications in complicated environments, an increased number of faults in measurements are inevitable. Fault detection and exclusion (FDE) is an effective way to reject observation faults in order to guarantee the integrity of a GNSS positioning and navigation system. We propose a modified between‐receiver single‐differencing (SD)‐based FDE algorithm for real‐time kinematic (RTK) positioning. First, a modified between‐receiver SD model‐based FDE is proposed for testing the estimated float ambiguities. This is helpful in rejecting observations with unreliable float ambiguities and obtaining reliable double‐differencing (DD) integer ambiguities, denoted as the SD float model in the sequel. Second, DD ambiguities are resolved by the DD model and used to update the previous SD float ambiguity. After that, a modified SD fix model, taking the DD ambiguities as the known parameters, is further developed to detect any unreliable or fault‐resolved ambiguities. To verify the modified SD model‐based FDE algorithm, a kinematic vehicle test is conducted. The fault detection test statistics of the SD float model and the SD fix model, time‐to‐first‐fix, ambiguity‐fix rate, SD residuals, and positioning performances are examined. The results show that the modified FDE method can detect and exclude fault satellites accurately and effectively, which is verified by the SD residuals of fault satellites. The ambiguity‐fix rate of the proposed modified FDE algorithm is improved by approximately 3% with 70 more epochs of fixes. Regarding the 3D positioning performance, the modified proposed SD‐based FDE algorithm can achieve 54.11%, 57.78%, and 73.11% improvements for standard deviation, root mean square, and mean bias, respectively, when compared with the processing strategy without the use of the proposed FDE.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
