Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The global navigation satellite system (GNSS) comprises four primary global systems—GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BDS—as well as two regional systems, QZSS and IRNSS. The fusion of Multi-GNSS into various devices and services unlocks new opportunities and challenges, necessitating the adoption of advanced methodologies from the fields of high-precision navigation and geoscience. This integration enhances signal geometry, ensures redundancy, and extends coverage, especially in challenging environments. Algorithmic progress is crucial for leveraging these opportunities and overcoming challenges to improve the precision, availability, interoperability, and integrity of practical GNSS applications. Multi-GNSS plays a vital role in facilitating cutting-edge applications that demand high-precision navigation, such as autonomous vehicles and disaster management, and for maintaining reliable services essential to safety-critical operations. Moreover, it promotes international cooperation, aids in establishing global standards, and propels the evolution of satellite navigation technology, leading to a more interconnected and informed world.
This Special Issue of Remote Sensing (ISSN 2072-4292), 'Advances in Multi-GNSS Technology and Applications (2nd Edition)', focuses on the expanding realm of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), which present both opportunities and challenges in delivering reliable position, navigation, and timing solutions crucial for modern human endeavors. We welcome submissions covering GNSS receivers, positioning algorithms, contemporary applications, and the development of software tools for data collection and processing, along with their applications in diverse fields. This Special Issue seeks to foster dialog and collaboration in advancing the understanding and utilization of Multi-GNSS technology across disciplines.
Contributions may include original research articles, reviews, case studies, and technical notes that provide insights into the current state of the art and future directions in the field of Multi-GNSS technology and its diverse applications.
Articles may address, but are not limited, to the following topics:
- Multi-GNSS techniques, algorithms, and methodologies;
- High-precision GNSS methods;
- New methods for atmospheric modeling and their applications;
- Advances in GNSS signal processing and theoretical modeling;
- Multi-sensor application;
- Next-generation signal design for navigation purposes;
- GNSS signal processing, positioning, navigation, and timing;
- GNSS integrity monitoring, interference mitigation, and novel applications.
