GNSS 101: An IntroductionDate: Monday, September 24, 2018Time: 1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.

A broad overview of the principles of satellite navigation, and the technologies that matured in the second-half of the 20th century, leading to thedevelopment of Transit, which became operational in 1964, followed by GPS in 1995. The principal technologies required for a global navigation satellitesystem are: stable space platforms in predictable orbits; global coordinate frames; spread spectrum signals; and ultra-stable clocks. These technologiesmade GNSS possible, but it’s the revolution in integrated circuits that led to a receiver chip, which adds about $1 to the cost of a smartphone, and candetermine virtually instantaneously your position within a couple of meters, velocity within 5 cm/s, and time within 50 ns. These innovations have allbrought about a transformation in how we move about, do commerce, and fight wars.

Dr. Pratap Misra, an ION Fellow and Kepler Award recipient, has been active in the GNSS field for over 25 years, starting with a projectat MIT Lincoln Laboratory aimed at combining measurements from GPS and GLONASS to improve navigation for civil aviation.

ION GNSS+ 2018 • September 24-28, 2018• Miami, Florida 4



Using a Sextant: Celestial NavigationDate: Monday, September 24, 2018Time: 1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.

How do modern navigators use a sextant, chronometer, stars, and almanac information to solve for ship or aircraft position? The fundamentals are likelymore straightforward than you realize! Today’s mariner typically uses six tools to solve for vessel position:

1. An almanac (or computer) that predicts precise location of celestial bodies as a function of time,2. A reasonably accurate timepiece,3. A device to measure elevation angle of a celestial body (e.g., sextant),4. A “star finder,”5. A navigational chart, and6. A mathematical or tabular method to convert observations to contours (lines) of position.

This short course will cover some theory; however, the primary focus will be on the practice of using these six tools to solve for vessel position. Finaldiscussions will focus on experiences with celestial navigation, with topics to include best times to shoot stars, horizon challenges, sources of error, andtypical accuracy.

Dr. Richard J. Hartnett is a professor of Electrical Engineering at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy in New London, CT, having retired in2009 from the USCG as a Captain (O-6). His current research interests include the mathematics of positioning, statistical signalprocessing methods in electronic navigation, and autonomous vehicle design.





Sensor Integration for Personal NavigationDate: Monday, September 24, 2018Time: 1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.

A review of the state-of-the-art navigation sensors and techniques suitable for personal and pedestrian navigation, with an extension to the unmannedaerial systems (UAS) navigation. Personal navigation (PN) is defined as navigation for military and emergency personnel, while pedestrian navigationrefers to location/navigation/tracking of all other types of mobile users. An emphasis will be on navigation sensors and techniques in GNSS-challengedenvironments, such as, inertial measurement unit (IMU), wireless local area network, IR and RF transponders, and ultra-wideband (UWB) networks, as wellas 2D and 3D active and passive imaging sensors. Following the technology overview, example implementations and performance assessment ofselected navigation system prototypes will be presented. System design, as well as a summary of the performance analysis in the mixed indoor-outdoorenvironments, with the special emphasis on dead-reckoning (DR) performance, will be discussed.

Dr. Dorota A. Grejner-Brzezinska is the Lowber B. Strange Endowed Chair and the associate dean for research in the College ofEngineering at The Ohio State University (OSU) and a director of the Satellite Positioning and Inertial Navigation (SPIN) Laboratory. Herresearch interests cover GPS/GNSS algorithms, GPS/inertial and other sensor integration for navigation in GPS-challengedenvironments, sensors and algorithms for indoor and personal navigation, and mobile mapping. She is a Fellow of the ION, RIN andIAG; recipient of the ION’s Kepler and Thurlow awards; and a past ION president.

Approaches for Resilient and Robust Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT)Date: Monday, September 24, 2018Time: 3:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

Diverse elements of the international infrastructure are critically reliant on GNSS for precise location and time, often in ways that are not obvious. Thistutorial provides a high-level perspective on the effects of interference on GNSS receivers and offers some possible threat mitigation approaches andpolicy recommendations. The tutorial starts with a discussion of potential GNSS threats and vulnerabilities. Then, after a quick review of how receiversdetermine position, the focus is on the effects of various interference types on select signals. The effects of ground mobile propagation in limitingeffective jammer range are examined. Mitigations such as adaptive arrays, and IMU aiding are discussed. Civil jamming examples and incidents arecovered along with methods to detect, identify and militate against their effects. In particular, the importance of maintaining situational awareness forestablishing environmental context is examined. Techniques for detecting civil spoofing and authenticating signals will be discussed.

Logan Scott has over 40 years of military and civil GPS systems engineering experience. He specializes in radio frequency signalprocessing and waveform design. He has pioneered approaches for building jamming-resistant digital receivers and has longadvocated for hardening civil infrastructure. Logan is an ION Fellow and holds 41 U.S. patents.

Kalman Filter Applications to Integrated Navigation 1Date: Tuesday, September 25, 2018Time: 9:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

Registration Fee: $400 if paid on or before August 24$450 if paid after August 24

The focus of this course is on the basic theory, an intuitive understanding as well as practical considerations, for the design and implementation ofKalman filters. Although many new types of filters are published in the literature, the Kalman filter is still the optimal and most efficient solution for themajority of integrated navigation systems. The course starts with a review of statistics and detailed insights into the most important noise processes,including random walk and Gauss-Markov processes. This is followed by a review of state variables and an overview of Kalman filters, including linear,linearized and extended filters. Matlab®-based examples are provided to facilitate hands-on experience with Kalman filters for integrated navigationapplications.

For those having no previous experience with modern estimation, a review of fundamentals is included. Linear systems are characterized in terms of (1) avector containing the minimum number of independent quantities required to define its state at any instant of time and (2) a matrix expression capableof propagating that state from one time to another. In combination with expressions relating measurements to states, a standard cycle is formedwhereby a system's entire time history is continuously produced, with the best accuracies achievable from any combination of sensors, extravagant oraustere, providing any sequence of measurements that can be incomplete, intermittent and indirect, as well as imprecise. That already wide versatility isbroadened further by straightforward extension to systems with nonlinearities (Extended Kalman Filter; EKF) which has proved adequate for a host ofapplications (including some to be discussed in this tutorial). The relation between Kalman (sequential) and block (weighted least squares) estimation isillustrated, and a number of important subtleties that often go unrecognized will be uncovered.

Course Level: The course is at the beginner-level and will enhance understanding of the principles of filtering at the beginner and intermediate levels.

Hands-on Introduction to GNSS Software Receivers and Signal ProcessingDate: Tuesday, September 25, 2018Time: 9:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.


This course provides a “hands-on” approach in providing attendees with a solid understanding of the fundamentals of GNSS software receivers andassociated signal processing. The course is divided into multiple modules; each is comprised of a short lecture followed by the completion of a softwareproject that reinforces the concepts and techniques taught. By the end of the course, attendees will have a functional GNSS software receiver running ontheir laptop that takes a sampled GNSS data file, acquires visible GNSS signals, tracks a specified signal, and outputs signal observables (i.e., carrier-to-noise-density ratio(C/N0) , accumulated Doppler range, uninitialized pseudorange). This baseline open-source code may be further developed to yield afully-functional GNSS software receiver that is ideal for research.

Topics covered:

Precise modeling and simulation of GNSS signals, including C/N0, dynamics and code-carrier divergenceFFT-based GNSS signal acquisitionCorrelation across satellite-referenced 1ms epochs on data blocks referenced to receiver 1ms epochs: the split-sum correlatorBit synchronizationCarrier tracking loops: FLL, PLL and FLL-aided-PLLCode tracking loops: DLL, non-coherent vs. coherent tracking, correlator spacing and carrier aidingTracking channel state machinesMeasurement computation

Pre-requisites and equipment: Basic understanding of digital signal processing, object-oriented programming concepts and the Pythonprogramming language are required to work on the partially complete software projects provided. Attendees must supply their own laptop computerswith adequate battery power. The instructor will be providing information and software to registered attendees in advance of the course.

Kalman Filter Applications to Integrated Navigation 2Date: Tuesday, September 25, 2018Time: 1:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.


Integration of GPS with an Inertial Measurement Unit (GPS/IMU) is used to illustrate the application of Kalman Filtering to integrated navigation. Thecourse starts with a brief summary of the Kalman Filter followed by the steps required to implement the filter, including the selection of the statevariables, observability, error sources, sensor bandwidth, update rate, time synchronization, lever arm, and identification of the noise processes. At theconclusion of the course, participants should be able to understand the underlying principles that lead to the successful design and implementation ofKalman filters for integrated navigation applications.

The approach presented offers a major benefit of departure from other IMU/satnav integrations. Precise carrier phase observations one second apartprovide streaming velocity for dead reckoning, yielding huge improvement in multiple aspects of performance (robustness, integrity, interoperability,immunity to belowmask ionospheric and tropospheric degradations, etc.). Flight-verified cm/sec velocity performance, including an instance of zeroelevation above horizon, is shown. Of crucial significance, integration with a low-cost IMU is shown to be sufficiently dramatic to conclude that there islittle reason not to use it.

Course Level: : The course is designed to follow Kalman Filter Applications to Integrated Navigation 1 and Inertial Navigation, and will also be of benefitto intermediate-level attendees who are familiar with filtering concepts and inertial navigation principles.

Introduction to BeiDou (BDS)Date: Tuesday, September 25, 2018Time: 1:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.


This course will provide a comprehensive and in-depth introduction to the Chinese BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS). As a member of the world’sGNSS family, BDS has many similarities with other GNSSs, such as GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo. However, BDS also possesses many unique features. Itsuniqueness is not only reflected in the constellation structure, the control segment configuration, and the user terminals, but also in its signal structures,ranging and positioning methods, services, and applications. BDS even created a completely different development model from other GNSSs. Thesedifferences made BDS a unique and distinctive GNSS.

This course will begin with a brief overview and uniqueness analysis of many aspects of BDS, followed by a detailed introduction to BDS systemarchitecture and service performance, signal structures and receiving schemes, and compatibility and interoperability with other GNSSs. While the coursecovers historic development in BDS, including BDS I, II and III, the focus will be on the emerging BDS III, especially on the new generation navigationsignals and the latest experimental results. The course will conclude with a discussion on the status and future development and direction of BDS.

This course is designed for beginners who are not familiar with BDS, and GNSS experts seeking a deeper understanding of BDS. The target audiences aregraduate students, R&D, systems and manufacturing engineers, managers and executives, and government agency staff in the fields of PNT and satellitenavigation.

This short course will explore the concepts and technology associated with developing and testing navigation systems for autonomousvehicles, both using traditional multi-sensor fusion techniques and via artificial neural networks (i.e., deep learning).

The course begins with an overview of sensors commonly used for autonomous systems including inertial sensors, GNSS, laser scanners, and image-based sensors. The associated error models are developed for each sensor and examples are presented regarding performance using experimental data.Next, sensor integration approaches are developed including traditional Kalman filtering and proceeding to nonlinear filtering techniques. Comparisonsare made regarding performance trade-offs for the various approaches.

Finally, an overview of deep learning approaches for autonomous system navigation and associated performance capabilities is presented. The tutorialwill begin with an overview of artificial neural network frameworks including convolutional neural networks (CNN) and recurrent neural networks (RNN).The development will include both a theoretical and algorithmic perspective along with a review of hardware requirements for real-time implementation.Emphasis will be placed on designing a deep learning-based approach for navigation using a monocular camera sensor using open-source data.

Emergency Location Service in Android

Mr. Steve MalkosGoogle

When emergency services get a call, they need to know the caller’s location to send help and save lives. Today, over 80% of calls to emergency servicescome from mobile phones, but locating these mobile callers can be a major issue. Current emergency solutions rely on cell tower location (which canhave a radius of several kilometers) and, in some countries (like the US and Japan), on A-GNSS. A-GNSS can fail with weak signal reception, in urbancanyons, and especially indoors. In this presentation we will cover how Emergency Location Service in Android is delivering more accurate location(computed from fusion of WiFi, cell, GPS and sensors) to emergency services when an emergency call is detected.

Preview of Mr. Malkos talking about Emergency Location Service in Android at Google IO 2017: https://youtu.be/5MIBNOTD_mM?t=2018

Mr. Steve Malkos is the Technical Program Manager in the Android Location and Context Group at Google. He manages all engineering aspects forAndroid’s Location and Context programs. Mr. Malkos is responsible for defining these initiatives within Google which includes everything fromEmergency Location Service (ELS), GPS, Fused Location Provider (FLP), Android Sensor Hub, Sensors, and more. Mr. Malkos has been involved in the fieldof location for over 15 years. Prior to his role at Google, he worked as an Associate Program Management Director at Broadcom, where he managedengineering teams within Broadcom’s GNSS software. He holds a B.S. in Computer Science from Purdue University and currently holds eight patents inthe field of location.

A Lidar History: From Ship to Air to Space

Dr. Paul E. LaRocqueTeledyne Optech, Canada

Teledyne Optech has been active in laser radar systems for a very long time. This history first began with marine lidars and later moved to airbornesystems and spaceborne lidars. Navigation has been an important subsystem in these developments and its role will be described as part of this story.

Dr. Paul LaRocque is Vice President of Special Projects at Teledyne Optech. He has been involved in the development of Optech’s lidar systems since thelate 1980s. Dr. LaRocque was instrumental in the design of Optech's airborne lidar bathymeters, airborne lidar terrain mappers (ALTM), and waveformdigitizers, as well as other special lidars.
