Abstract

GNSS performance is examined under both extreme and dangerous solar radio bursts and strong magnetic storms during the period from 2001 till 2020. Our experimental observations corroborate a negative effect of space weather factors on GNSS operation in the stand-alone and differential navigation modes. It was proved that the main causes of that are: (1) GNSS signal direct suppression from solar L-band radio bursts with a >10³ s.f.u.; (2) signal ionospheric scintillations in the regions and time when higher values for the electron density gradients are registered (auroral oval south border, equatorial super-bubbles distribution area, main phase of magnetic storm at mid latitudes).
