The first results of the short baseline single-epoch kinematic positioning based on dual-frequency real BeiDou/GPS data are presented. The performance of the BeiDou/GPS single-epoch positioning is demonstrated in both static and kinematic modes and compared with corresponding GPS-only performance. It is shown that the availability and reliability of the single-frequency BeiDou/GPS and dual-frequency BeiDou single-epoch kinematic positioning are comparable to those of the dual-frequency GPS. The fixed rate and reliability of ambiguity resolution for the single- and dual-frequency BeiDou/GPS are remarkably improved as compared to that of GPS-only, especially in case of high cutoff elevations. For positioning accuracy with fixed ambiguities, the BeiDou/GPS single-epoch solutions are improved by 23 and 4 % relative to the GPS-only case for two short baseline tests of 8 km, respectively. These results reveal that dual-frequency BeiDou real-time kinematic (RTK) is already applicable in Asia-Pacific areas and that single-frequency BeiDou/GPS RTK is also achievable but only with initialization of several seconds. More promisingly, the dual-frequency BeiDou/GPS RTK can overcome the difficulties with GPS-only RTK under the challenging conditions assuming, of course, that the additional BeiDou satellites are visible.
