GNSS spoofing is a technique used to deceive Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) receivers by broadcasting fake signals that appear to be genuine. To detect GNSS spoofing, a receiver can use various techniques such as monitoring signal strength, cross-checking data from multiple satellites, comparing the signal characteristics with the expected patterns, and analyzing the timing and location information. Advanced detection methods may use machine learning algorithms to identify anomalies and patterns in the signal data. In addition, the use of encrypted signals and multiple frequency bands can make spoofing more difficult, and the implementation of spoofing-resistant hardware and software can further enhance detection capabilities. In this article various techniques of manipulation and detection of spoofing and experiments are described. There is no 100% method for spoofing detection.
