초록

This study presents a comprehensive performance evaluation of hybrid global navigation satellite system (GNSS) configurations in urban canyon environments across South Korea, focusing on the integration of Global Positioning System (GPS) with the BeiDou, GLONASS, Galileo, Quasi Zenith Satellite System (QZSS), and Navigation with Indian Constellation (NavIC) constellations. Simulation scenarios representing pedestrian, vehicular, and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) movements are used to analyze the positioning accuracy and reliability of each hybrid system. The results indicate that GPS–BeiDou and GPS–QZSS combinations consistently provide superior accuracy and continuous satellite visibility, with GPS–BeiDou achieving centimeter-level precision in the UAV scenario. In contrast, GPS–GLONASS and GPS–NavIC systems exhibit higher error rates and less stable performance. These findings emphasize the critical role of satellite availability, receiver altitude, and signal compatibility in achieving robust positioning. Although the results are specific to South Korea, the proposed evaluation framework is broadly applicable and can help other countries assess hybrid GNSS performance to guide the design and optimization of their regional navigation satellite systems. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
