Abstract

The paper presents the results of obtained research defining the accuracy of determining the position of a specific object (aircraft, UAV), equipped with a mobile receiver operating the navigation system A-GNSS. The Assisted GNSS technology is designed to improve the performance of the GNSS receiver by reducing the time needed for the receiver to calculate its location. It also increases the sensitivity of the received signal by the receiver, as a result, the accuracy of the determined position of a specific object can be improved. Thanks to its application, the radio-navigation receiver becomes compatible with the requirements of current standards, and what is associated with it this kind of technology has become an important part of the cellular industry. The aim of the article is to examine the solution of A-GPS system and to demonstrate its effectiveness in the process of determining the position of the UAV object. The paper presents aspects of the functionality of the A-GPS system solution work, mathematical model of object position determination using A-GNSS system and discusses the technology that is used for the integration of navigation systems with cellular network. In the final part of the work, based on the analysis of the research literature, the presented mathematical model and simulations, conclusions were formulated, which are reflected in practical applications.
