Preface to GNSS Systems and Engineering PDF

The contemporary satellite navigation system has become an important infrastructure in the main developed countries.

The US Global Positioning System (GPS) and the Russian Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS), established in the middle 1990s, are not only important military equipment but also widely used in the fields of global navigation and positioning, high precision time transfer, spacecraft tracking telemetry and control, and so on.

The European Union started building the Galileo Satellite Navigation System at the end of the twentieth century. China has started building the China Compass Navigation Satellite System since the mid-1990s.

The Compass Satellite Navigation and Positioning Reporting System were successfully built on December 27, 2012, realizing the service capability in the Asia-Pacific Region.

The author, starting from the Compass Satellite Navigation and Positioning Reporting System and engineering practice, taking the Radio Determination Satellite System (RDSS) and Radio Navigation Satellite Service (RNSS) as the important content, wrote GNSS Systems and Engineering: The China Compass Navigation and Position Location Satellite. This book consists of three parts, 15 chapters in total.

The first part includes four chapters introducing the theory and engineering design of Radio Determination Satellite Service (RDSS) mainly including basic concepts, fundamental principles, engineering design, user equipment technology, and so on.

Chapter 5, Theory and Engineering Design of Navigation and Determination Satellite Service, links the previous and following chapters by introducing the theory and design of Radio Navigation and Determination Satellite Service integrating RDSS and RNSS.

The third part includes the next nine chapters that introduce the theory and engineering design of Radio Navigation Satellite Service (RNSS), mainly including basic concepts, fundamental principles, engineering design, application examples, user equipment testing, and so on.

While writing and compiling this book, departments at all levels and relevant experts provided care and support.

I want to thank Xu Qifeng and Xie Youcai for their valuable revision comments; Wang Gang, researcher, for providing the analog computation result of the relative motion features of the static-state user; and to thank the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) for providing the GLONASS document.
