Abstract:A largescale normal equation is often demanded in modern geodetic data processing, whereas the traditional algorithm performs very slowly in parameter estimation and accuracy assessment. This paper presents an improved algorithm of largescale normal equations by using Cholesky decomposition and the OpenMP parallel library. The simulation experiments show that the improved algorithm can obtain the same results as the traditional algorithm do,but have a better performance in parameter estimation and accuracy assessment compared with traditional algorithm, and the OpenMP parallel library is more suitable for solving largescale normal equations.
