Reliable navigation and positioning are becoming imperative in more and more
applications for safety-critical purposes, public services and consumer products. A
robust localization solution, which will be available continuously is needed regardless of
the specific environment, i.e., outdoors and indoors, and on different platforms such as
stand-alone navigators and mobile devices. ICL-GNSS addresses the latest research on
wireless and satellite-based positioning techniques to provide reliable and accurate
position information with low latency. The emphasis is on the design of mass- market
navigation receivers and related tools and methodologies. The scope includes (but is
not limited to) the following topics:
 Antennas and RF front-end for GNSS receivers
 Design, prototyping and testing of positioning devices
 Acquisition, tracking and navigation algorithms
 Detection and mitigation techniques for adverse propagation conditions Wireless
and sensor-based localization
 GNSS applications for remote sensing, ionospheric sounding and space weather
 Precise timing for GNSS and terrestrial systems
 Security and privacy in joint communication and navigation systems
 Authentication and privacy aspects of positioning
 Spoofing countermeasures
 Cooperative and peer-to-peer positioning
 Positioning based on signals-of-opportunity
 Multi-GNSS receivers and emerging navigation satellite systems
 Indoor positioning and localisation in densely populated urban areas
 Hybrid NAV/COM positioning
 Cognitive positioning architectures
 Positioning for autonomous systems (robots, planes, land and marine vehicles)
 Crowd-sourced and swarm localisation
 Location-based mobility models, services and applications
We invite you to submit your original full papers on the most recent results and
technology trends in the fields of positioning. Accepted and presented papers will be
published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other
Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases.
