Abstract

In GPS (Global Positioning System) positioning, various measures can be used to select satellites or to evaluate the positioning results. Among these, GDOP (Geometric Dilution of Precision) and RGDOP (Relative GDOP) are the most frequently used. Although these measures are frequently used, the relationship between them is not clearly known. Moreover, the condition number is used as a traditional measure of numerical stability in solving linear equations. Sometimes, the volume of a tetrahedon made by the line of sight vector is used for simplicity. All of these measures share some common properties as well as differences. The relationships between these measures are analyzed in this paper.
