Abstract
We describe a hybridized receiver architecture tightly coupled with different sensors, namely MEMS accelorometers and gyroscopes, Wi-Fi engine and a barometer, allowing significant increase of positioning performance for indoor GNSS signal reception. Expected overall navigation performance increase is described and the benefits of using such external sensors are quantified.
