Abstract
An analysis is performed of fluctuations in navigation signals in the Arctic due to the auroral disturbance of September 27, 2019. Anomalous 3D positioning errors over European auroral stations were detected during this event. It is shown that strong positioning errors were caused by the navigation signals crossing intense discrete forms of the aurora.
