MLAMBDA: A Modified LAMBDA Method for Integer Ambiguity Determination

Abstract

The celebrated LAMBDA method has been widely used in GNSS for fixing integer ambiguities. For real time kinematic GNSS applications with high dimensions, the computational speed is crucial. In this paper a modified LAMBDA method (MLAMBDA) is presented. Several strategies are proposed to reduce the computational complexity. Numerical simulations show that MLAMBDA is (much) faster than LAMBDA.
