[IGSMAIL-7407] GNSS Applications in Radio Science session at the URSI GASS 2017

[Matthew Angling]

Dear All,

The next URSI General Assembly & Scientific Symposium wil be held in Montreal, Canada from 19-26 August, 2017. Full details can be found at www.ursi2017.org<http://www.ursi2017.org> .
Seebany Datta-Barua and  Matthew Angling are convening a session in Commission G on GNSS Applications in Radio Science:

####
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), Galileo, and Beidou rely on L band trans-ionospheric radio signals for positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT).  Such signals are susceptible to ionospheric propagation effects (i.e. phase advance, group delay) that can  alter the received signal properties at the receiver.  Thus, the ionosphere can affect PNT services.  Conversely, the variations in signal properties can be used to probe the ionosphere.  This session welcomes papers on: ionospheric science in order to improve future GNSS services; on ionospheric effects on current GNSS services; and on the use of GNSS signals of opportunity for ionospheric remote sensing. Of particular interest are papers on the new GNSS signals that are now available (i.e. Galileo E5a/E5b and GPS L5).

The abstract deadline of January 30, 2017 is approaching quickly and we would encourage you to submit your papers as soon as possible. Please feel free to circulate this email to any of your colleagues that may be interested.

Sincerely

Matt
