Abstract: Over the past decade, more global navigation satellite system (GNSS) satellites have led to the development of receivers that support multiple constellations. Advances in receiver technology to support multi-GNSS constellations require more power and resources, making them unsuitable for budget-friendly wearables and smartphones. For multi-GNSS constellations, geometric dilution of precision (GDOP) is a key measurement unit selection parameter. Identifying the optimal subset requires an exhaustive search since the GDOP performance criterion is both non-linear and non-separable, making direct analytical solutions impractical. Traditional matrix inverse GDOP calculation requires several operations that use more resources and power. This paper revisits GDOP parameterization in multi-GNSS constellations and proposes an efficient swarm-based meta-heuristic approach to filter satellites using GDOP without compromising receiver performance accuracy. The proposed method optimizes computation by selecting the best satellites for position calculation. Multi-GNSS (GPS and NAVIC) cases show that the proposed method is 4–7 times faster and 72–87% more efficient than the traditional traversal method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
