Abstract :
A dual-band receiver can be used in the Global Positioning System (GPS) to cancel the effects of ionospheric perturbation. Moreover, increasing the number of satellites may reduce the positioning time and increase the reliability of GPS. In this work, we introduce a bifilar helical antenna which can support both GPS and GLONASS systems.
