Abstract
The study aims to assess the applicability of the ordinary least squares method, robust estimation, and conditions-binded adjustment in processing the six synchronous coordinate pairs of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers. The research is part of the research project InnoSatTrack, focused on the enhancement of the determination of geometrical parameters of railway tracks using GNSS, inertial, and other sensors. A fixed frame of installation of six receivers is used in the data processing. Due to the limited availability of railway routes for measurements, the stationary campaign was conducted to gather data for the adjustment procedures tests. Six GNSS receivers in the frame-restricted configuration were set up using the tachymetric method for recording 96,729 synchronous static observations. Post-processed coordinates of the receivers were adjusted according to the geometrical conditions of the survey frame. Analysis showed higher applicability of the conditions-binded method than other estimation methods by obtaining superior results in both the precision and the maintenance of the design conditions factors than in the OLS and robust estimators.
