Abstract:
The objective of this work is the evaluation of the performances of EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay System) augmentation system in maritime navigation by comparing them with those obtained by other positioning methods as Single Point Positioning (SPP) and Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS). Preliminarily, EGNOS performances in an open-sky context were evaluated through static data downloaded by EGNOS RIMS (Ranging and Integrity Monitoring Stations) located in Rome. Then, for the maritime test carried out onboard a boat in the Gulf of Naples, two dual-frequency receivers were used: Xiaomi Mi 8 smartphone and u-blox ZED-F9P multi-band GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiver, both in kinematic mode. At last, IMO (International Maritime Organization) requirements, established in IMO Resolution A.1046 (27), that a SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System) system in particular scenarios (coastal, inland-water, harbor navigation and ocean waters) must respect, were verified.
