Introduction to GNSS. A Short Explanation
The “Introduction to GNSS” explanation lesson provides a comprehensive overview of the evolution of satellite navigation systems, focusing on the development of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) technology. Beginning with the launch of the Sputnik satellite in 1957, the lesson traces the progression from the Navy Navigational Satellite System to the establishment of the Global Positioning System (GPS) in 1983. The presentation delves into the global expansion of GNSS, including GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS, each offering unique orbital configurations and services. The lesson emphasizes the importance of combining signals from different constellations for precision, with a spotlight on the European Galileo system. RTK is introduced as a key technology for achieving centimeter-level accuracy in drone navigation. The presentation details the process involving a stationary GNSS base station and its implications for applications like precision agriculture.
