One major challenge to the widespread adoption and progress of autonomous vehicles relies on answering the simple question - where am I? Vehicles operating in an urban canyon, such as a city, must be able to trust their sensors, especially for localization in the dense urban environment. The use of LiDAR and high definition maps requires effort in advance to develop the high definition map. Also, the high definition map may not be able to account for the seasonal changes in the environment like changing foliage or accumulated snow. Other localization methods require additional fixed infrastructure such as base stations in the case of Real-Time Kinematic solutions. GPS is one common sensor used for localization that suffers from noise and inaccuracies in the urban canyon, due to increased horizontal dilution of precision, multipathing, and non-line-of-sight signals. This research serves to identify when the sensor is unreliable and how much error is in the measurement. This is accomplished using a fuzzy inference system and metadata about the GPS measurement and the measurement itself. The use of two GPS sensors allows for the measured relative position of the sensors to be compared to the known relative position of the sensors for one input. Then, the reported horizontal position error for each sensor are the other inputs. The membership functions and rulebase were generated using heuristic knowledge of the GPS sensors' measurements in the urban canyon. Testing this system required the operation of an uncrewed ground vehicle in an urban canyon and a motion capture camera system to measure ground truth. After this was tested successfully, the fuzzy inference system was applied to estimate the position of the uncrewed vehicle in an urban canyon. The position was estimated using a fuzzy adaptive Kalman filter, as the fuzzy inference system estimated the measurement noise covariance matrix.
