Abstract
With the development of Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS),multi-GNSS positioning has been shown to provide a more effective solution for accurate localization,benefiting from an increased number of available satellites and improved geo-metric distribution. Recent research indicates that Factor Graph Optimization (FGO)based multi-GNSS positioning outperforms traditional algorithms. However,the refinement of the stochastic model and the adaptive weighting of FGO-based multi-GNSS positioning remain underexplored. We propose a robust Helmert Variance Component Estimation(HVCE)method to further enhance the performance of multi-GNSS positioning in challenging urban scenarios by adaptive weighting for multi-GNSS. Additionally,the robust algorithm IGG-III is applied to improve both the robustness of the HVCE method and the state estimation within the FGO framework. The results of vehicle-borne tests show that compared with the single FGO scheme,the proposed algorithm improves positioning accuracy by 35. 4%,8. 7%,and 25. 1% in the north,east,and vertical directions,respectively. Overall,the pro- posed algorithm is validated to be an effective approach to improving multi-GNSS performance in complex urban envi- ronments by refining the stochastic model and adaptively weighting the measurements.
