Abstract

A positioning system includes an elevation angle calculator that determines, as a second elevation angle, an inverse cosine of a first value, upon occurrence of a condition in which an absolute value of a first elevation angle is greater than or equal to a second predetermined angle, the second predetermined angle being greater than a first predetermined angle, the first value being obtained by dividing a second value that is obtained by correcting, with a correction value, an altitude measured by an altitude measurement unit, by a distance measured by a distance measurement unit. The elevation angle calculator selects any one of the first elevation angle and the second elevation angle, based on a value of the first elevation angle.
