Overview
Receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM) is a technology developed to assess the integrity of GNSS signals in a GNSS receiver system. It is of special importance in safety-critical GNSS applications, such as in marine navigation.
RAIM detects faults with redundant GNSS pseudorange measurements. That is, when more satellites are available than needed to produce a position fix, the extra pseudoranges should all be consistent with the computed position. A pseudorange that differs significantly from the expected value (i.e., an outlier) may indicate a fault of the associated satellite or another signal integrity problem (e.g., ionospheric dispersion).
