Abstract

The global positioning system (GPS) is a satellite navigation system currently under development by the Department of Defense. This correspondence describes a new position fix algorithm for a low-cost GPS receiver. The algorithm uses Hotelling's method to iteratively update the inverse of the measurement matrix for correction of the
