TSU has created an algorithm for launching satellite navigators

2019-10-03

Evgeny Vaiman, a TSU radiophysicist, has developed an algorithm for quickly launching satellite tracking devices quickly, which improves the operation of navigators, making the search for people and vehicle monitoring more efficient. The researcher defended his master's thesis as part of an exchange program between TSU and the Anhalt University of Applied Sciences (Germany).

Yevgeny Vaiman studied at TSU for the first year, and then went to Anhalt University. He studied satellite tracking devices under the guidance of professors Vladimir Yakubov and Eduard Siemens.

- Modern navigation satellite systems can determine the location of an object in a short time and with high accuracy. According to the data for 2018, the receivers of the Swiss company u-blox provide the shortest time for the first fixation at a cold start - this is the time during which the receiver can determine the first coordinates of its location. They are trying to reduce this time, -said Evgeny Vaiman. - The main problem is that under bad conditions, position determination may take several minutes. The main goal of the work was to analyze the built-in functions and identify the most productive ones during the cold start of the device.
