1. A method of resolving a navigation solution of a global positioning system (GPS) enabled receiver, the method comprising:

  • receiving direct navigation signals transmitted from one or more GPS platforms;

    determining receiver range measurements from the direct navigation signals received via direct signal paths from the one or more GPS platforms;

    resolving a navigation solution of the GPS-enabled receiver from the receiver range measurements to determine a position of the GPS-enabled receiver;

    determining reflector range measurements from the reflected navigation signals received via reflected signal paths from isotropic reflector; and

    resolving a longitudinal, lateral, and vertical position of the isotropic reflector from the reflector range measurements.
