GPS, which has been opened to the public since the 1980's, uses the C/A code time of arrival to estimate the position, and measures the carrier doppler frequency to estimate the velocity. In development from the 1990's, DGPS has improved position accuracy by eliminating common errors and CDGPS has achieved cm-level position accuracy using carrier phase. In this paper, a modified LSAST ambiguity resolution method for CDGPS is proposed to improve reliability and computational efficiency. Also the test results of cm level relative positioning of a moving vehicle using single frequency GPS receivers are compared to INS position. This research result can be widely used for the development of high precision INS, unmanned autonomous driving, survey and mapping, etc.

It is well-known that positioning accuracy can be improved by the use of carrier phase of GPS up to the centimeter level. In order to obtain good accuracy, we need to know integer ambiguity in the carrier phase accurately. In this paper, we propose a fast ambiguity determination method(FADM) which combines Kalman filtering and the search method, and show the improvement of the positioning performance by static and kinematic simulation compared with known methods such as Kalman filtering, LSAST (Least Squares Ambiguity Search Technique), ARCE(Ambiguity Resolution with Constratint Equation), LLL(Lenstra, Lenstra, and Lovasz) algorithms.
