GNSS antenna calibration of car navigation antennas to optimise vehicle navigation

Objectives of the programme

The aim of "Accurauto" is to predict the performance of GNSS vehicle antennas. For the first time, a combination of real antenna measurements and a simulation is being used for this purpose. The advantage of real measurements is that the error can be determined directly. However, these measurements are time-consuming and cost-intensive. Simulations, on the other hand, can be performed quickly and cost-effectively, but they only approximate the reality. The combination of these methods promises to utilise the advantages of both methods - accuracy and scalability.

In this project, a vehicle will be measured and simulated as an example. The antenna errors determined will be compared and combined into a joint calibration. At the end of the project, test drives will be carried out to demonstrate the improvements resulting from the calibrations.
