Abstract

A large number of facts prove that Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has certain security risks and is threatened by attacks. In particular, GNSS civilian signal receivers have some vulnerability in responding to spoofing attack and jamming attack, because the format and modulation of GNSS civilian signals are public. Based on the concerns of existing GNSS spoofing scenarios, this article reviews the research on GNSS anti-spoofing technologies from two aspects. In this article, the strategies of spoofing attacks discovered at this stage are classified in detail, the protection effect and scheme implementation complexity of various anti-spoofing techniques against spoofing attacks are analyzed from the perspective of signal-level and data-level. More specifically, we comprehensively analyze the ability for the combined anti-spoofing methods at the signal-level and the data-level to protect from combinations of different spoofing attack. Finally, the future development trend and potential research direction of GNSS anti-spoofing technology are summarized and predicted.
