Accurate positioning is a key factor for enabling innovative applications to properly perform their tasks in various areas including: Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET). Vehicle positioning accuracy depends heavily on positioning techniques and the measurements condition in its surroundings. Several approaches which can be used for improving vehicle positioning accuracy have been reported in literature. Although some positioning techniques have achieved high accuracy in a controlled environment, they suffer from dynamic measurement noises in real environments leading to low accuracy and integrity for some VANET applications. To solve this issue, some existing positioning approaches assume the availability of prior knowledge concerning measurement noises, which is not practical for VANET. The aim of this paper is to propose an algorithm for improving …
