Abstract

Space-based navigation was not only the first method of long-distance navigation but is the most advanced today. It proved superior to any other guidance system as it is all weather, immune to precipitation static and propagates predictably through the atmosphere. GPS (Global Positioning System), GLONASS (Global Navigation Satellite System), Galileo are the systems that are now harbinger of navigation. In the field of navigation achieving reliability is one of the most concerns of any system. Reliability is the consistency of the solutions. A study of the satellite navigation system reliability is carried out in this paper in the context of Bangladesh. A frequency analysis has been done and shown that how multiple number of frequency reduce biases hence improve reliability.
