If the extended data gaps are not considered, the system is
capable of predicting positions to an accuracy of a few
centimetres over one second. Assuming fixed
ambiguities, this is the expected accuracy of the system
under ideal open sky conditions (i.e. with no data gaps).
In contrast, under signal masking environments, with data
gaps of up to five seconds, the prediction accuracy is
typically better than a few decimetres. For longer time
periods, metre level accuracy is expected. However, if
one considers autonomous driving in fairly benign
environments, such as on freeways or in sub-urban areas,
a data gap of longer than a few seconds is quite unlikely.
It seems therefore, that the proposed system would be
ideal under these circumstances.
