Global Navigation Satellite Systems Engineering, Policy, and Design
A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) aims to provide Earth-based position and navigation. Spaceborne GNSS receivers have become universal sensors for spacecraft navigation, especially in low Earth orbits (LEOs), often also supporting science endeavors or acting as dedicated science payloads.

A: Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) and Advanced RAIM (ARAIM; known more generally as Solution Separation RAIM, or SS-RAIM) were originally designed to detect, alert and (where possible) exclude faulty measurements caused by Signal-in-Space (SIS) failures.

A novel approach for GPS M-code pull-in. Signal acquisition and tracking are two essential functions of a satellite navigation (satnav) receiver that allow it to form a position, velocity and time (PVT) solution.

Q: What do we know about recent observations of GNSS interference and spoofing in Eastern Europe? What lessons can we learn regarding civil user mitigation of these threats? What can we learn from recent incidents and their impact on civil aviation?

This year’s European Space Policy Conference in Brussels saw familiar faces talking about new and unfamiliar things. While Galileo continues to perform well, delivering an ever-widening range of services, the problem of how to get Galileo satellites into space has forced the Union to take unprecedented, forward-thinking and, for some, uncomfortable steps.
