There has been an increasing demand for positioning technology and services in many emerging applications. A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) can provide highly accurate positioning solution in a typical clear-sky outdoor environment. Many applications, however, operate in indoor and other challenging environments, where GNSS signals undergo detrimental effects from natural and man-made sources. Although other positioning technologies can alleviate some of the difficulties suffered by GNSS positioning, they do not provide comparable accuracy and they have their own issues.

Enabling reliable navigation and positioning in challenging environments can be met by designing specialized algorithms that address the requirements of the target applications, which should be accomplished through maximum utilization of the available resources and with minimum cost and deployment overhead. Innovative algorithms should aim at creating novel processing methods, applying sophisticated filtering techniques, and adapting concepts from other engineering fields to create advanced functionality. Such algorithms must be optimized for processing power and memory usage to make them feasible solutions for limited-resources applications.
