Abstract :
A kinematic differential GPS algorithm is presented. Specifically, the accurate relative and absolute positioning of a team, or formation, of mobile vehicles is considered. The measurement situation on hand is correctly modeled, a stochastic framework is developed, and a centralized estimation algorithm is rigorously derived
