  2. GNSS applications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNSS_applications

    A GPS receiver in civilian automobile use. Air navigation systems usually have a moving map display and are often connected to the autopilot for en-route navigation. Cockpit-mounted GNSS receivers and glass cockpits are appearing in general aviation aircraft of all sizes, using technologies such as SBAS or DGPS to increase accuracy.

  3. Precise Point Positioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precise_Point_Positioning

    Precise positioning is increasingly used in the fields including robotics, autonomous navigation, agriculture, construction, and mining. [2]The major weaknesses of PPP, compared with conventional consumer GNSS methods, are that it takes more processing power, it requires an outside ephemeris correction stream, and it takes some time (up to tens of minutes) to converge to full accuracy.

  4. Satellite navigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_navigation

    GNSS systems that provide enhanced accuracy and integrity monitoring usable for civil navigation are classified as follows: [5] GNSS-1 is the first generation system and is the combination of existing satellite navigation systems (GPS and GLONASS), with Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) or Ground Based Augmentation Systems (GBAS). [5]

    Screenshot of GPSTest application showing GPS and other GNSS satellites usage in South Tangerang, Indonesia (2025) Many civilian applications use one or more of GPS's three basic components: absolute location, relative movement, and time transfer.

  6. GNSS software-defined receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNSS_software-defined_receiver

    A software GNSS receiver is a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver that has been designed and implemented using software-defined radio.. A GNSS receiver, in general, is an electronic device that receives and digitally processes the signals from a navigation satellite constellation in order to provide position, velocity and time (of the receiver).

  7. GPS signals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_signals

    Each subframe begins with a Telemetry Word (TLM), which enables the receiver to detect the beginning of a subframe and determine the receiver clock time at which the navigation subframe begins. Next is the handover word (HOW) giving the GPS time (as the time for when the first bit of the next subframe will be transmitted) and identifies the ...

  8. Real-time kinematic positioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_kinematic...

    A surveyor uses a GNSS receiver with an RTK solution to accurately locate a parking stripe for a topographic survey. Real-time kinematic positioning (RTK) is the application of surveying to correct for common errors in current satellite navigation (GNSS) systems. [1]

  9. GNSS augmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNSS_augmentation

    The US Nationwide Differential GPS System (NDGPS) was an augmentation system for users on U.S. land and waterways. It was replaced by [dubious – discuss] NASA's Global Differential GPS (GDGPS) system, which supports a wide range of GNSS networks beyond GPS. The same GDGPS system underlies WAAS and A-GNSS implementation in the US. [11]
