Per tests that were ran across China and Europe, the BeiDou system can improve the positioning and accuracy of GNSS receivers, specifically when a number of navigation satellite systems are being tracked concurrently. The system is designed specifically for when signals are partially obstructed.

BeiDou offers a suite of services that include satellite and ground-based augmentation services, precise single-point positioning, precise timing, and global short message services.

GNSS technology leverages all-weather, all-time, tracking, navigation, and timing. The tech is submerging within agriculture, forestry, fishery, power, and energy, making BeiDou an important system.
