The decade belongs to GNSS
Boris Kennes and Justyna Redelkiewicz Musial
According to the 2010 GNSS Market Monitoring report published by The European GNSS Agency (GSA), the global market for GNSS will grow significantly over the next decade, reaching some €244 billion for the enabled GNSS market in 2020. Delivery of GNSS devices will exceed one billion per year by 2020. Mobile location based services (LBS) and Road will be the market sectors with the highest revenue generation.…

  GNSS spoofing analysis by VIAS
Jyh-Ching Juang
A metric, Vulnerability Index Against Spoofing (VIAS), is proposed and used to assess the effectiveness of a spoofer. The use of VIAS is of benefit in assessing the use of GNSS navigation in resisting spoofing. The VIAS which depends on both time and location may also shed light on the design...

Mass market receiver for static positioning
Marco Piras, Gianluca Marucco and Alberto Cina
There are differences between GPS receivers that have a important impact on accuracy and performance in static positioning. Carrier phase contribute is fundamental in static positioning in order to obtain the best PVT solution, but this is true if the carrier phase measurement quality is good…
