The collaboration among swarmed aircraft can provide additional observation to improve the integrity of its onboard navigation systems. But due to the limitation on relative communicating and measuring burdens, adopting all the observations between aircraft in the swarm is inefficient. The geometry of the collaborated partners is a key factor that influences the effectiveness of the navigation integrity augmentation, which needs to be optimized in collaborative integrity augmented navigation. In this paper, the integrity augmented navigation method for aerial swarm based on collaborative partner optimization is proposed. The geometry constructed by the GNSS satellites and the cooperative partners in the aerial swarm are analyzed dynamically, and the augmented integrity protection levels with different collaborative relationships are predicted to distinguish the partner essential for navigation integrity augmentation. Then the collaborative partner makes a key contribution to integrity augmentation adopted in collaborative navigation integrity monitoring, improving the efficiency of the collaborative navigation. The simulation results indicate the effectiveness of the proposed cooperative partnership optimization strategy, as well as the superiority of the proposed method compared with the traditional independent integrity framework in improving the integrity protection level and fault detection capacity.
