Using multi-frequency measurements is a way to improve accuracy of attitude parameters estimation using by GLONASS and GPS multi-frequency receiver. An optimal method attitude parameters estimation are presented at this paper. This method uses two or more vector measurements. Algorithm for solving this problem is based on singular value decomposition. Results of numerical simula- tion and experiments are presented.
