Abstract

Global Navigation Satellite System carrier phase ambiguity resolution is the key to high precision positioning and navigation. In this contribution a brief review is given of the probabilistic theory of integer carrier phase ambiguity estimation. Various ambiguity estimators are discussed. Among them are the estimators of integer rounding, integer bootstrapping, integer least-squares and the Bayesian solution. We also discuss the various relationships that exist between these estimators
