  • Global Navigation Satellite System eller Satnav är ett satellit system i omloppsbana runt planeten Jorden.
  • Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is the standard generic term for satellite navigation systems that provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning with global coverage. A GNSS allows small electronic receivers to determine their location (longitude, latitude, and altitude) to within a few metres using time signals transmitted along a line of sight by radio from satellites. Receivers on the ground with a fixed position can also be used to calculate the precise time as a reference for scientific experiments.
  • Russia has operated the Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) since the 1980s. It is similar in design to GPS, but based on different technical standards. Like GPS, GLONASS offers a civilian service for peaceful worldwide use, free of direct user charges, and an encrypted military service.

abstract
  • Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is the standard generic term for satellite navigation systems that provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning with global coverage. A GNSS allows small electronic receivers to determine their location (longitude, latitude, and altitude) to within a few metres using time signals transmitted along a line of sight by radio from satellites. Receivers on the ground with a fixed position can also be used to calculate the precise time as a reference for scientific experiments. As of 2007, the United States NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS) is the only fully operational GNSS. The Russian GLONASS is a GNSS in the process of being restored to full operation. The European Union's Galileo positioning system is a next generation GNSS in the initial deployment phase, scheduled to be operational in 2010. China has indicated it may expand its regional Beidou navigation system into a global system. India's IRNSS, a next generation GNSS is in developmental phase and is scheduled to be operational around 2012.

  • Russia has operated the Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) since the 1980s. It is similar in design to GPS, but based on different technical standards. Like GPS, GLONASS offers a civilian service for peaceful worldwide use, free of direct user charges, and an encrypted military service. In the 1990s, the GLONASS constellation deteriorated, making the system less popular among users. Russia has prioritized the modernization of GLONASS and restored it to a 24-satellite constellation in 2011. The United States is cooperating with Russia towards GPS-GLONASS interoperability, both for enhanced PNT and combined search and rescue capabilities.
