Springer Handbook of Global Navigation Satellite Systems

Peter Teunissen is a Professor of Geodesy and Satellite Navigation at Curtin University, Australia, and Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), the Netherlands. His research is focused on developing theory, models and algorithms for high-accuracy geospatial applications of new global and regional satellite navigation systems. His pioneering contributions to the field include statistical and numerical methods of integer inference theory, innovative algorithms for multi-GNSS precise parameter estimation, and the early characterization and utilization of the Chinese BeiDou, the Indian IRNSS and the Russian GLONASS CDMA system. His scientific contributions have been recognized through various awards including the Bomford Prize, the Steven Hoogendijk Prize and the Alexander von Humboldt Award. He holds an Honorary Degree from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and is a Fellow of the International Association of Geodesy (IAG), the UK Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN), the US Institute of Navigation (ION) and the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences (KNAW). Oliver Montenbruck is Head of the GNSS Technology and Navigation Group at the DLR's German Space Operations Center, Oberpfaffenhofen and Chair of the Multi-GNSS Working Group of the International GNSS Service. His research activities comprise space borne GNSS receiver technology, autonomous navigation systems, spacecraft formation flying and precise orbit determination. More recently, he has focused on the characterization of new satellite navigation systems and multi-GNSS processing. Pioneering contributions in this field included GIOVE and GPS signal investigations based on high-gain antenna measurements, the establishment of the Cooperative Network for GNSS Observation (CONGO), and the evaluation of triple-frequency signals, as well as the early characterization and utilization of the Chinese BeiDou navigation system. His scientific contributions have been recognized through various awards including the DLR Senior Scientist Award, the Institute of Navigation's (ION) Tycho Brahe Award, and the GPS World Leadership Award.

“The book can be used as a textbook and reference book in communication engineering courses at the undergraduate to doctorate levels. … it provides a huge amount of mathematical details related to GNSS. GNSS-related computer program developers can use it as a good reference book.” (Maulik A. Dave, Computing Reviews, April, 2018)
