The electronic warfare against drones of would-be terrorists and spies, which is gaining momentum in Russia, threatens to disrupt the operation of car navigation systems. Portal “AutoVzglyad” tells
Disturbances in the reception of signals from satellite navigation systems in densely populated areas have until recently been rare, sometimes sensational and deserved everyone’s attention in social networks and the media. But now such incidents will apparently become a daily routine. The new era of “GPS jamming” began with a loud (by all accounts) arrival of a pair of drones on the Kremlin’s buildings on the night of May 3. The audience unanimously decided that these were the tricks of Bandera.
After that, problems arose with car navigation systems and car-sharing services in the center of the capital. The jammers of the Russian special services, suddenly turned on, began to replace the GPS / GLONASS signal in this area – to shoot down the “sight” of all unmanned “flyers” who decide to repeat the night attack of early May . If you do not believe your eyes, looking at the brick walls of the Kremlin, but concentrate on the screen of the smartphone with the navigator turned on, it may seem that you are somewhere in the near suburbs of Moscow.
The situation is likely to worsen as the government of the Russian Federation seriously discusses the idea of legally allowing large private and state-owned companies to use electronic warfare systems to protect their facilities from drones.
This means that navigational disturbances related to satellite signal reception failures will soon be felt near major oil refineries, energy, defense companies, organizations and other strategic facilities. It is clear that with the help of a household smartphone it is unlikely that it will be possible to completely defeat an industrial electronic warfare station.
But there is a chance to neutralize the negative effect of her work on her personal navigation. We do make a reservation that it is quite possible to implement this in a large city. And in a small settlement or far from housing, it is not necessary. Because, as a rule, there is nowhere to get lost. And in a metropolis in the coverage area of jammers, a motorist has to find another “coordinate system” for his navigation gadget. And it really exists. Location-based service (LBS) technology has been around for quite some time – determining the user’s geolocation based on the signals from mobile base stations and Wi-Fi routers with a known location.
To remove interference in determining your true coordinates, in the settings of your personal gadget, you must forcibly disable the reception of GPS signals and activate the LBS function – if it is not already enabled. Calculating your location with its help does not provide such high accuracy as when orienting using GPS / GLONASS signals. However, in the conditions of the city, when there are enough other landmarks nearby, with the help of LBS it is quite possible to get where you need to go.
