From aviation and safety critical applications to personal navigation; Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) technology has found a place in everyday civilian life and will only become more intertwined as the technology continues to improve. One of the issues with GNSSs is that they are susceptible to interference in the forms of intentional (i.e., jamming) or unintentional sources. As this interference is a threat to civil applications, this thesis focuses on providing the framework to understand the performance degradation of GNSS receivers in the presence of interference. More specifically, this paper focuses on the high accuracy user, and how interference affects a commercially available differential GNSS (DGNSS) receiver system. A comparison was done to investigate differences between two commercially available DGNSS receivers’ performances as well as analyze the different approaches manufactures take in the integration of multi-constellation GNSS signals. After testing two DGNSS receivers, two things were clear when analyzing the data. First, there is a significant benefit when using multi-constellation GNSS signals. Not only does this help improve position accuracies; it also allows for a more robust system in the presence of GNSS interference. Second, both of the receivers tested performed worse in the presence of a GPS L1 interference signal compared against a GPS L2 interference signal when in either a GPS only or all GNSS receiver configuration.
