RECEIVER AUTONOMOUS INTEGRITY MONITORING (RAIM)

Definition

RECEIVER AUTONOMOUS INTEGRITY MONITORING (RAIM)

A technique whereby a civil GNSS receiver/processor determines the integrity of the GNSS navigation signals without reference to sensors or non‐DoD integrity systems other than the receiver itself. This determination is achieved by a consistency check among redundant pseudorange measurements.
