We research on absolute positioning using Beidou pseudo-range measurements collected in Ho Chi Minh City. Positional accuracy achieved is 2.3m, 4.5m and 3.9m for the North, East and height components compared to (0.8, 0.9, 1.7) of GPS and (2.0, 1.9, 4.1) of GLONASS. This result shows that in Vietnam we can use only BEIDOU system for positioning and also opens the possibility of incorporating positioning satellite systems to improve accuracy.
