Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals are extremely weak when they reach the Earth's surface. As a result, they are highly vulnerable to Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).
Interference can come from unintentional electromagnetic emissions or from deliberate jamming and spoofing attacks. These threats may prevent a receiver from locking onto satellite signals or even cause it to output incorrect positioning data.
In 2026, selecting the right anti-jamming receiver has become a critical task for engineers and procurement professionals, whether protecting critical infrastructure or ensuring reliable operation of personal devices.
GNSS interference generally falls into two categories:
Today, GNSS interference is no longer limited to military environments. It has increasingly affected civilian sectors as well. Signal disruptions and positioning errors have been reported in maritime, aviation, and other safety-critical industries. As a result, deploying anti-jamming technology has become an urgent requirement.
