    • A satellite navigation system using multiple antennas for providing the position of multiple fiduciary points on an object even when fewer than four satellites are visible to some or all the antennas. Satellite signals from the multiple antennas are fed into at least one receiver. The receiver or receivers utilize constraint information, which is independent of the satellite signals. These external constraints are used to augment the signals received from the satellites, to obtain the position solution for each antenna. In a preferred embodiment, a common reference clock is used to provide an external constraint. Examples of other external constraints that can be used in the current invention are distance between the antennas, inertial measurement of attitude, rotational or linear position sensors, etc.
    • 一种使用多个天线的卫星导航系统,用于在物体上提供多个受信点的位置,即使对于一些或所有天线可见少于四颗卫星。 来自多个天线的卫星信号被馈送到至少一个接收机。 接收机或接收机利用独立于卫星信号的约束信息。 这些外部约束用于增加从卫星接收的信号,以获得每个天线的位置解。 在优选实施例中,使用公共参考时钟来提供外部约束。 可以在本发明中使用的其他外部约束的示例是天线之间的距离,姿态的惯性测量,旋转或线性位置传感器等。

    • A Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellite is used for broadcasting differential navigation corrections. Using LEO satellites, the “footprint” of the beam is much smaller than for geosynchronous satellites. Datalink bandwidth requirements are reduced to sufficiently cover an entire footprint area. With a LEO satellite transmitting in multiple beams, these footprints become even smaller. Corrections targeted to such a small area provide local area corrections broadcast from the LEO satellites. Payment, discounts, subsidies or charges are arranged to encourage different entities to own or host base stations, resulting in wide distribution of the network of base stations for use with satellite communications.

    • A system and method provide for precision guiding of agricultural vehicles along a series of adjacent paths to form rows for cultivating a field. In one aspect of the invention the vehicle is moved along a first path while receiving positioning information from a navigational system (e.g., RTK GPS). This positioning information is stored in a processor and is used by the processor to compute a second path adjacent to said first path by calculating piecewise perpendicular offsets from the first path at multiple locations along the first path. The process is repeated to compute a third and subsequent paths so as to cover the field. Because of the offset process, the field may be covered with paths that have varying curvature along their length, while providing substantially no gaps or overlaps in the coverage of the field. In another aspect of the invention, the system may propose alternative paths and the user can intervene by steering the vehicle or using a graphical user interface to select among the alternative paths. A still further aspect of the invention allows for the recording of the paths that provide coverage of a field in the form of a template. This template can then be used to cause the vehicle to automatically steer along a previously calculated path in subsequent operations on the field, and in subsequent years.
    • 一种系统和方法提供沿着一系列相邻路径的农用车辆的精确引导,以形成用于培养场的行。 在本发明的一个方面,车辆沿着第一路径移动,同时从导航系统(例如,RTK GPS)接收定位信息。 该定位信息被存储在处理器中,由处理器用来通过沿着第一路径在多个位置处计算来自第一路径的分段垂直偏移来计算与所述第一路径相邻的第二路径。 重复该过程以计算第三和随后的路径以覆盖该场。 由于偏移过程,该场可能被沿其长度具有变化曲率的路径覆盖,同时在场的覆盖范围内基本上没有间隙或重叠。 在本发明的另一方面,系统可以提出替代路径,并且用户可以通过转向车辆或使用图形用户界面在备选路径中进行选择来进行干预。 本发明的另一方面允许记录以模板形式提供场的覆盖的路径。 然后,该模板可以用于使得车辆在现场的后续操作中以及随后的年份中沿着先前计算的路径自动转向。

    • A system and methods for reducing navigation satellite receiver power usage are presented. A wireless signal is received at a portable electronic device in a signal environment. At signal characteristic of the wireless signal at the portable electronic device is measured in the signal environment. An estimated signal strength of the wireless signal in the signal environment is estimated based on the signal characteristic. The estimated signal strength is compared to an expected signal strength of the wireless signal to calculate an estimated signal-strength-change relative to the expected signal strength. A GNSS signal is tracked at the portable electronic device, if the estimated signal-strength-change indicates an expected GNSS signal attenuation is lower than a signal attenuation threshold. The tracking of the GNSS signal is reconfigured at the portable electronic device, if the expected GNSS signal-strength-change indicates the expected GNSS signal attenuation is greater than the signal attenuation threshold.
    • 介绍了减少导航卫星接收机功率使用的系统和方法。 在信号环境中的便携式电子设备处接收无线信号。 在信号环境中测量在便携式电子设备处的无线信号的信号特性。 基于信号特性来估计信号环境中的无线信号的估计信号强度。 将估计的信号强度与无线信号的预期信号强度进行比较,以计算相对于预期信号强度的估计信号强度变化。 如果估计的信号强度变化指示预期的GNSS信号衰减低于信号衰减阈值,则在便携式电子设备处跟踪GNSS信号。 如果预期的GNSS信号强度变化指示预期的GNSS信号衰减大于信号衰减阈值,则在便携式电子设备处重新配置GNSS信号的跟踪。
