Abstract

Interferences on GNSS can be categorized into two types: intentional interference and unintentional interference. Jamming and spoofing, mainly discussed in Chaps.  2 and  4 in this book, belong to the category of intentional interference. Multipath interference studied in this chapter, and pulse interference that will be studied in Chap.  6 both belong to unintentional interference.
