Why Does GNSS Require at Least 4 Satellites for Positioning?

Why Does GNSS Require at Least 4 Satellites for Positioning?

Have you ever wondered this: when using satellite navigation, we notice that the receiver can pick up signals from dozens of satellites. Yet, geometrically, only three satellites should be enough...

Do I Really Need Centimeter-Level GNSS Accuracy?

Do I Really Need Centimeter-Level GNSS Accuracy?

When exploring GNSS solutions, “centimeter-level accuracy” is often presented as the gold standard. Precision agriculture, surveying, and automation all seem to point in one direction: higher accuracy is better. But a...

How Geomagnetic Storms and Ionospheric Activity Affect GNSS Performance

How Geomagnetic Storms and Ionospheric Activity Affect GNSS Performance

GNSS positioning accuracy depends not only on receiver performance and algorithms, but also on space weather conditions. During periods of strong solar activity—especially geomagnetic storms—GNSS users may experience reduced accuracy,...
