Domestic orbital development can significantly “add” in the calculation accuracy of data. This is sure to say experts from TsNIIMASH. According to their information, the Federal Space Agency, in collaboration with the Ministry of Defence is preparing a program of modernization of the system by replacing the existing satellites with new generation devices “GLONASS-M».
especially new probes become innovative equipment from the company “Russian Space system “. These on-board instruments will be able to greatly improve the speed and accuracy of the inter-satellite measurements. Equipment will work in cooperation with ground stations computation.
However, all of these improvements will still not allow GLONASS catch up, let alone get ahead of American counterpart – GPS. Increase the accuracy of calculating the coordinates twice implemented before the end of this year. Thanks to the new satellites will increase the speed of bookmarks ephemeris-time information directly on board the orbital probes. This will achieve the accuracy of 1.4 meters.
For comparison we present recent data operation of the two systems. GLONASS now shows the calculation accuracy of 2.7 meters, and its Western rivals in one meter. By the end of the year, if the project will implement successfully, the system “squeeze out” of 1.4 meters. As you can see GLONASS can not even be compared with the current capabilities GPS.
