Work Experience
Engineer at INRETS-LEOST Laboratory during PhD program
2005-2009
The position consisted in creating new algorithms to
enhance the position accuracy in urban environments using
only GNSS signals. The method is applied to the receiver
filtering process and is based on particle filtering
techniques. New error models in urban environment have
been realised and are related to the reception state of
every satellite signal.
