It cannot go on forever… We have to find a solution!
Durk van Willigen
GPS and telecom networks are essential parts of today’s economies. GPS might shrink their spectrum needs and the GPS industry/providers/users could start paying for the spectrum. Both solutions, at present, are most likely just wishful thinking. So, the only remaining solution is to improve GPS receivers so that they can withstand the new powerful neighbours...

PPP using combined GPS/ GLONASS measurements
Mohamed Azab, Dr Ahmed El-Rabbany, Dr M Nabil Aly Shoukry, Dr Ramadan Khalil
This study investigates the effect of combining GPS and GLONASS dual-frequency measurements on the static PPP solution and its sensitivity to different processing strategies. It has been shown that the addition of GLONASS constellation improved the satellite availability and geometry over 30%...

“The compatibility between the EU system and other GNSS systems is our main concern”
Antonio Tajani, Vice President, European Commission
Galileo shares resources with other global or regional satellite navigation programmes be they GPS, Glonass, Beidou and others. The compatibility between the EU system and these systems is our main concern.To this end, the Commission consults regularly with its international partners, bilaterally as well as in multilateral fora. We have to live under one roof, which we achieve through consultation...
