NAVIGATION SYSTEM WITH APPARATUS FOR DETECTING ACCURACY FAILURES
First Claim
1. A navigation system for a vehicle having a receiver operable to receive a plurality of signals from a plurality of transmitters, the navigation system comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory device having stored thereon machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, enable the processor to;
determine a set of error estimates corresponding to pseudo-range measurements derived from the plurality of signals,determine an error covariance matrix for a main navigation solution using ionospheric-delay data, andusing a solution separation technique, determine at least one protection level value based on the error covariance matrix.

Abstract
A navigation system for a vehicle having a receiver operable to receive a plurality of signals from a plurality of transmitters includes a processor and a memory device. The memory device has stored thereon machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, enable the processor to determine a set of error estimates corresponding to pseudo-range measurements derived from the plurality of signals, determine an error covariance matrix for a main navigation solution using ionospheric-delay data, and, using a solution separation technique, determine at least one protection level value based on the error covariance matrix.
