Automated vehicles (AVs) have gained increasing interest over the past few years. A crucial feature of these vehicles is an accurate and robust positioning system. Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) precise point positioning (PPP) can achieve decimeter-level accuracy without the need for local reference stations. Nevertheless, the solution availability is affected by GNSS signal outages, which frequently occur in AVs driving scenarios. The integration with an inertial navigation system (INS) provides a continuous positioning solution; however, high-end inertial sensors are bulky and expensive. The recent improvements to the low-cost micro-electro-mechanical (MEMS) sensors opened the way to utilize these sensors in high-precision applications. The objective of this work is to investigate the performance of integrating dual-frequency PPP with low-cost MEMS sensors for land vehicles on highways and suburban areas. Furthermore, the Reduced Inertial Sensor System (RISS) is used instead of the traditional INS system. RISS uses two horizontal accelerometers and one vertical gyroscope in addition to the vehicle odometer, eliminating two gyroscopes and one accelerometer compared to the full IMU system. The lower number of sensors contributes to reducing the error growth over time and reducing the system cost and complexity. A road test was performed that included suburban areas and highway driving with multiple overpasses. The result showed that the developed PPP/RISS system was able to achieve decimeter-level rms positioning errors and a maximum of one meter horizontal positioning error.
