GLONASS also consumes a lot more bandwidth. However, this would be an excellent demonstration of an SDR's adaptability, since a working software GPS receiver has all the necessary components that a GLONASS receiver requires. One just rearranges them differently. GALILEO falls into the same category. | * http://www.glonass-ianc.rsa.ru/pls/htmldb/f?p=202:1:12061333542270124939 The Russians added needless complications when they selected a silly time-scale for their system and decided to share the spreading codes between satellites.
