Abstract
- This article deals with the impact of ionospheric electron density inhomogeneities on the functionality of global navigation satellite systems emphasizing positioning errors. The scintillation characteristics of transmitted signals have been obtained using data gathered in measurement campaigns. The effects on a standard receiver are then presented. Positioning errors due to scintillations were shown to be greater than 10 meters in the worst case.
