Abstract
The most recent contributions to ambiguity resolution techniques have mainly focused on resolution in the ambiguity domain. Two techniques utilizing a decorrelation approach are compared. These techniques are the least-squares ambiguity decorrelation adjustment method and the lattice basis reduction. The latter is also known as the LLL method. The main focus in this article is on the decorrelation performance of these state-of-the-art techniques, which are aiming at ambiguity space decorrelation through unimodular transformations. The performances of the two-decorrelation techniques are compared through their ability in making the ambiguity space as orthogonal as possible.
