GNSS Interoperability, or Can’t We All Just Get Along Together?

GNSS Interoperability, or Can’t We All Just Get Along Together?

Simple harmonic motion

Return to "GNSS Year in Review"

At first glance, interoperability and its implication of at least some degree of cooperation seem at odds with the idea of competing GNSS systems.

Yet the mantra of compatibility, interoperability, and even — in the terminology of GPS pioneer Brad Parkinson —interchangeability has taken on a nearly unanimous harmony in the pronouncements and deliberations of GNSS leaders.

GNSS Year in Review: Three Trends That Matter

GNSS Year in Review: Three Trends That Matter

Yes, it’s that time — when we try to anticipate what 2011 holds for GNSS by analyzing (or just trying to remember) the highlights of the past 12 months in our global navigation satellite system industry.

First, 2010 was a busy year. Successful launches of 13 new satellites brought the number of GNSS spacecraft in orbit to more than 60. The highest level yet for both numbers launched and in the collective GNSS constellation.

Horses racing by Margret Hofheinz-Doering 1956

Return to "GNSS Year in Review"

We’ve come a long ways from the attitudes of the Cold War environment in which the Global Positioning System and GLONASS programs arose.

But that doesn’t mean that GNSS competition is a thing of the past. Indeed, the second most-read item on the Inside GNSS website during this year was a March 2009 article entired “GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Compass: What GNSS Race? What Competition?”
