A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) consists of a group of satellites that transmit signals to and from Earth. Major examples such as Beidou (China), GPS (USA), GLONASS (Russia), and QZSS (Japan) have increased the quality of lives of their respective regions and offering services to third-party users, making transportation, agriculture, security, and other data acquisition more convenient and reliable.
