Hybrid system and apparatus for calculating the position and monitoring the integrity
DRIVE
March 23, 2011
The system (1) has an extended Kalman filter (KE1) comprising an extended state vector with a part representing a gap between a first elementary hybrid solution (PPVl 1) and a second elementary hybrid solution. An extended calculation module (100) receives an extended variance/covariance matrix (MHYPE1). The module determines a protection radius (RHG1) of the system from the matrix, based on probability of preset false alarm, preset non-integrity level and preset probability of appearance of a non-detected hardware failure of primary and secondary satellite positioning receivers (10, 80).
