TY - JOUR PY - 2019// TI - Low-cost receiver and network real-time kinematic positioning for use in connected and autonomous vehicles JO - Journal of navigation A1 - Ning, Fang-Shii A1 - Meng, Xiaolin A1 - Wang, Yi-Ting SP - 917 EP - 930 VL - 72 IS - 4 N2 - Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) have been researched extensively for solving traffic issues and for realising the concept of an intelligent transport system. A well-developed positioning system is critical for CAVs to achieve these aims. The system should provide high accuracy, mobility, continuity, flexibility and scalability. However, high-performance equipment is too expensive for the commercial use of CAVs; therefore, the use of a low-cost Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver to achieve real-time, high-accuracy and ubiquitous positioning performance will be a future trend. This research used RTKLIB software to develop a low-cost GNSS receiver positioning system and assessed the developed positioning system according to the requirements of CAV applications. Kinematic tests were conducted to evaluate the positioning performance of the low-cost receiver in a CAV driving environment based on the accuracy requirements of CAVs. The results showed that the low-cost receiver satisfied the "Where in Lane" accuracy level (0ยท5 m) and achieved a similar positioning performance in rural, interurban, urban and motorway areas.
