This portion provides the details regarding the work performed in the project named “VGPS a
visually augmented approach to improving GPS repeatability”. I performed this work as a
leader of the project team. While undertaking the task, I was studying Master degree in Electronics
Engineering from La Trobe University situated in Melbourne Australia. The working of the project
started from …………and continued up to ……………..
B. BACKGROUND
CE 1.2
Global positioning system provides the tracking of the time as well as GPS receiver’s location on
the earth within the line of sight generated with the help of 4 GPS satellites within the constellation.
This project mainly deals with the improvement work in the repeatability of the GPS using a
technique VGPS, i.e., visually Augmented Technique for GPS repeatability. Here, the robot would
be using the VGPS technique along with the capability of the machine vision for the purpose of
performing the pose estimation on the ground floor for the GPS calibration of the fixed objects. In
this project, the technique would not use any of the hardware on the ground along with power but
would use the GPS receiver with it.
CE 1.3
It is an important step to define the deliverables of the project which would be accomplished step
by step in an appropriate way. I have mentioned the defined deliverables below.
To experiment with the static repeatability of the GPS receiver for drift measurement.
To experiment with the VGPS repeatability to validate the efficacy of the technique.
To perform the comparison of the VGPS and static repeatability for analyzing the
improvement in the GPS repeatability.
CE 1.4
I got involved in this project during my college. I solely performed this project in order to
understand the VGPS technique enrollment in the improvement in the GPS repeatability. I was
involved in selecting the points for recording the data for different locations for the different
atmospheric condition. More, I collected the data and compared the working of the VGPS
technique. Also, I analyzed the time taken for this technique for improving the repeatability.
CE 1.5
To perform the project work for the achievement of the certification it is important to follow the
hierarchical order of the particular organization. During the work, I followed the hierarchy of the
college being in the highlighted position.
