Zusammenfassung:An apparatus and a method for providing a global localization output are provided. When the apparatus receives navigation signals, the apparatus processes the signals to determine, based on a fixed earth-centered, earth-fixed (ECEF) reference pose of a reference point in an ECEF coordinate, a new ECEF pose, and to convert the fixed ECEF reference pose to an east-north-up (ENU) reference pose in an ENU coordinate. When the apparatus determines that a jump occurs in the new ECEF pose based on a pose change between the new ECEF pose and a previous ECEF pose, the apparatus calculates a reference shift of the ENU reference pose based on the pose change to absorb the jump in the ENU coordinate, and updates the ENU reference pose based on the reference shift. Thus, a new ENU local pose may be obtained using the ENU reference pose.
