Abstract

This paper questions whether satellite navigation systems (SatNav) in their current form will be useful in future automated vehicles. We highlight the current challenges to the design of SatNav systems and point out how aspects of these may no longer be essential during the transition towards more highly automated vehicles. Finally we pose a number of research questions that may be helpful to understand the evolution of SatNav systems in automated vehicles.
