	To receive EGNOS signals an EGNOS compatible receiver is required. There are many receivers available on the market from a variety of manufacturers.<ref name=" ESA Web site on EGNOS receivers">[//www.egnos-pro.esa.int/SBAS_receivers.pdf ESA Web site on EGNOS receivers ]</ref>Serving as an augmentation, or overlay, to a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) message, the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) improves the accuracy and reliability of GNSS positioning information, and provides a crucial integrity message regarding the continuity and availability of the signal.

	An EGNOS receiver is like a GNSS receiver but with special software inside that allows the receiver to lock onto the code used by the EGNOS satellites and ~~compute~~ the EGNOS corrections to the ~~GPS~~ signals. Apart from this, an EGNOS receiver is just like a ~~GPS~~ receiver. This means that it can pick up ~~GPS~~ signals as well. An EGNOS receiver is the same size as a GNSS receiver and uses the same type of antenna. The next EGNOS generation (EGNOS V3) is going to include a multi frequency and multi constellation configuration and is currently being assessed with the objective to have them operational by 2025.

	According to the European GNSS Agency<ref name=" EGNOS Portal-Receivers">[http://egnos-portal.gsa.europa.eu/developer-platform/developer-toolkit/receiver-list EGNOS Portal on EGNOS receivers ]</ref>, the selection of the EGNOS receiver to use will depend on the specific application, the functionalities needed, and the integration constraints. In particular, it is necessary to check whether the receiver processes EGNOS correctly, and if its interfaces allow the application to retrieve the required data.

	As EGNOS is [[SBAS Interoperability\|interoperable]] with other SBAS, those receivers implementing the SBAS standards will take benefit of it. In practice, many receivers indicate its compatibility with SBAS with the tags "WAAS Capable" or "WAAS Enabled", after the [[WAAS General Introduction\|first operational SBAS]], deployed by the US government. "WAAS Capable" usually means that the SBAS functions are switched off in the default receiver configuration; the user would have to turn them on at least once. On the contrary, "WAAS Enabled" usually indicates that the SBAS features are set in the initial configuration.~~<ref name=" EGNOS Portal-Receivers"/>~~		As EGNOS is [[SBAS Interoperability\|interoperable]] with other SBAS, those receivers implementing the SBAS standards will take benefit of it.
