Autonomous driving represents one of the emerging applications that require both high-precision positions and highly critical timeliness to reach stringent safety standards. We develop a method to potentially achieve global instantaneous decimeter-level positioning by virtue of tightly coupled multi-GNSS triple-frequency observations contributing to precise point positioning (PPP). Inter-system phase biases (ISPBs) for two wide-lane observables are first computed for each station to form inter-GNSS resolvable ambiguities, and then correspondingly two wide-lane fractional-cycle biases (FCBs) are computed for each satellite to recover the integer property of single-station ambiguities. With both ISPB and FCB products, we can accomplish tightly coupled multi-GNSS PPP wide-lane ambiguity resolution (PPP-WAR) using only a single epoch of triple-frequency observations on a global scale. To verify this method, we used 1 month of GPS/BeiDou/Galileo/QZSS data from 107 globally distributed stations and 1 h of such multi-GNSS data collected on a vehicle moving in an urban area. We found that both ISPB and FCB products could be estimated every 24h with high precisions of around or below 0.1 cycles; 83–98% of their day-to-day variations fell within 0.1 cycles, facilitating their precise predictions for real-time applications. Using these corrections, we achieved both instantly and reliably ambiguity-fixed solutions at 91.2% of all epochs at the 107 stations on average; the resultant single-epoch positions reached a mean accuracy of 0.22m, 0.18m and 0.63m for the east, north and up components, respectively, in case of abundant triple-frequency observations from over 15 satellites. Similarly, for the vehicle-borne test, we obtained instantaneous PPP-WAR solutions at 99.31% of all epochs and achieved a positioning accuracy of 0.29, 0.35 and 0.77m for the east, north and up components, respectively, which improved significantly the identification of road lanes as opposed to other single-epoch solutions. Finally, we expect that the prospect of instantaneous PPP-WAR in aiding driverless vehicles can be more promising if, whenever possible, integrated with inertial sensors and/or smoothed through multi-epoch data.
