Global Navigation Satellite Systems Engineering, Policy, and Design
Thought leaders recently gathered to discuss the growing threats to GPS, the most pressing challenges the industry faces and the best way forward. Here, we’ve put together a comprehensive view of all the critical issues tackled during the PNT Leadership Summit, a venue where the industry’s brightest minds could bring up their concerns, frustrations and recommend solutions.

It is well-understood now that Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are vulnerable to radio frequency interference (RFI) due to the very low power of their received signals. RFI can take the form of jamming, in which the GNSS frequencies are overwhelmed with unwanted power or spoofing, in which “fake” GNSS signals are transmitted.
