Abstract :
Satellite navigation systems GNSS are used widely for many commercial and military application for a long period. Usually the position measurement accuracy is of a major concern. However in safety critical applications the further qualities as availability, continuity and integrity becomes also important. In this paper the mentioned characteristics of the GNSS are adressed and GPS positioning deficiencies in specific conditions are experimentally tested.
