DESCRIPTION:
“No doubt, this handbook will become in a short time the reference manual in satellite navigation – it contains all facets of this high-tech field. Editors and the many authors have put together an exhaustive book – hard to find something missing. I can only congratulate them for such a fine handbook!” (Günter W. Hein, Former Head of ESA’s EGNOS and Galileo Evolution Department & Scientific Consultant of the European Space Agency)
His pioneering contributions to the field include statistical and numerical methods of integer inference theory, innovative algorithms for multi-GNSS precise parameter estimation, and the early characterization and utilization of the Chinese BeiDou, the Indian IRNSS and the Russian GLONASS CDMA system. His r
All global and regional satellite navigation systems, both those currently in operation and those under development (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, IRNSS/NAVIC, SBAS), are examined in detail. The functional principles of receivers and antennas, as well as the advanced algorithms and models for GNSS parameter estimation, are rigorously discussed. The book covers the broad and diverse range of land, marine, air and space applications, from everyday GNSS to high-precision scientific applications and provides detailed descriptions of the most widely used GNSS format standards, covering receiver formats as well as IGS product and meta-data formats. This Handbook presents a complete and rigorous overview of the fundamentals
