Abstract:
Precision navigation within a theater of operations is performed by receiving, at each of a plurality of spaced apart known locations, GPS satellite signals from a plurality of GPS satellites, wherein the known locations approximately define the theater of operations. A measure of error in the GPS satellite signal for each of the plurality of GPS satellites is determined. The measures of error in the GPS satellite signals are utilized to correct GPS satellite signals received at an unknown location within the theater of operations. The corrected GPS satellite signals are then used to determine a precise position of the unknown location within the theater of operations.
