| Implementation | Description | Methods of instruction | Implementation |
| This course is a perfect combination of putting theory into practice. First, we learn the details of satellite navigation receiver technology and its operation. Next, we practically implement a Simulink/Matlab-based GNSS receiver, including the entire baseband signal processing unit. |
