Commercial and non-commercial aircrafts, and emerging Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) of the future, highly rely on GNSS for positioning, navigation and tracking. However, GNSS is more and more affected by various sources of radiofrequency interference, as pointed out annually by the Eurocontrol voluntary ATM incident report and in the International Air Transport Association (IATA) safety reports. Jamming, spoofing, meaconing, and harmonics from other wireless systems using frequency bands close to GNSS bands, and other types of in-band and adjacent band emissions, are a few examples of possible interferences in GNSS-based localization, navigation, and tracking of aircrafts. Such interferences might threaten drone functionality, with severe concerns for navigation systems, and, as a consequence, in some cases for the safety of users, as well as for the reliability of applications. This call invites original contributions and comprehensive survey papers in research areas related to how to detect, localize, classify and mitigate interference in GNSS signals used in aviation, as well as proposals of alternative or complementary solutions to deal with GNSS interference.
The main themes and keywords to guide potential authors are as follows:
Interference detection, classification, mitigation, and localization in GNSS
Authentication mechanisms in GNSS
Novel navigation solutions for aerial vehicles
Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website.
