Edited by Professor Shuanggen Jin
Professor Shuanggen Jin is a Professor at Shanghai Astronomical
Observatory at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He received
his BSc degree in Geomatics from Wuhan University in 1999 and
earned his PhD in Geodesy from the Chinese Academy of Sciences
in 2003. His main interests include satellite navigation and positioning, remote
sensing and climate change, and aspects of space and planetary sensing dynamics.
He has authored over 80 peer-reviewed journal papers and more than 10 books
and chapters. Since 2011 he has been President of IAG Sub-Commission 2.6 , he
has been Editor-in-Chief of International Journal of Geosciences since 2010, and is
the editor of several international journals. He received the Special Prize of Korea
Astronomy and Space Science Institute in 2006, took part in the Chinese Academy
of Sciences 100-Talent Program in 2010, was a Fellow of the International Associa-
tion of Geodesy (IAG) in 2011, and in that year was also involved in the Shanghai
Pujiang Talent Program.
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) plays a key role in high precision navi-
gation, positioning, timing, and scientific questions related to precise position-
ing. This is a highly precise, continuous, all-weather, and real-time technique. The
book is devoted to presenting recent results and developments in GNSS theory,
system, signal, receiver, method, and errors sources, such as multipath effects
and atmospheric delays. Furthermore, varied GNSS applications are demonstrat-
ed and evaluated in hybrid positioning, multi-sensor integration, height system,
Network Real Time Kinematic (NRTK), wheeled robots, and status and engineering
surveying. This book provides a good reference for GNSS designers, engineers,
and scientists, as well as the user market.
