Abstract
Modern infrastructure increasingly relies on the positioning and timing capabilities provided by the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) in particular GPS, making GNSS itself a critical infrastructure. Given their low received signal power levels, GNSS signals are vulnerable to unintentional and intentional interference, hence the detection, localization and elimination of interference to GNSS is of paramount importance. The GNSS Environmental Monitoring System (GEMS) II provides the capability to detect and localize interferers in real time in a given area. The system consists of a number of spatially distributed sensor nodes incorporating antenna arrays connected to a central processing unit. Interference is localized using hybrid Angle-of-Arrival (AOA) and Time-Difference-of-Arrival (TDOA) techniques. In this paper we provide a system update and report on the latest field test trials, detailing and evaluating the performance of the GEMS II system in detecting and localizing different types and powers of interferers in real time.
