IPNL at IEEE/ION PLANS 2025 Salt Lake City + Stanford visit (April 2025)

In April 2025, PolyU’s Intelligent Positioning and Navigation Laboratory (IPNL) had a strong presence at the 2025 IEEE/ION Position, Location, and Navigation Symposium (PLANS) in Salt Lake City, Utah (28 April – 1 May 2025), with three lab papers in the technical program. The trip included a Stanford University visit on the way to Utah.

Three IPNL papers at PLANS 2025:

Li Z., Yan P., Wen W., Hsu L.T. — Paired Cauchy-Gaussian overbound for not symmetric unimodal heavy-tailed distributions (PLANS 2025 pp. 214–225)
Song B., Wen W., Hsu L.T. — Certifiably Optimal Satellite Orbit Determination Based on Doppler Measurements for Low-Earth-Orbit Satellites (PLANS 2025 pp. 410–416)
Zhong Y., Ng H.F., Hsu L.T., Wen W. — GNSS/Map Integration with Batch Factor Graph Optimization for Reliable Trajectory Estimation in Urban Canyon (PLANS 2025 pp. 1411–1416)

PLANS is the IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society’s biennial navigation flagship, jointly organized with the Institute of Navigation; the 2025 edition drew 340 participants. The Stanford leg of the trip extended the lab’s ongoing engagement with the Stanford GPS Lab following Prof. Hsu’s first invited talk there in April 2023.
