	Comparing to GPS system, GLONASS use in civil/commercial applications is rare. One of the main differences between GPS and GLONASS is that the former uses [[CDMA FDMA Techniques\|CDMA technique]] to separate the satellites while the later uses [[CDMA FDMA Techniques\|FDMA technique]]. The main impact at receiver level is that GLONASS receivers are in general more expensive since they require higher IF bandwidths and hence they need more complex hardware.
