Zusammenfassung:	The present invention is a method for dynamically determining a blended navigation solution for a mobile platform (ex.-aircraft) via a receiver implemented on-board the platform. In the method disclosed herein, the receiver concurrently utilizes data from satellite signals obtained from a plurality of independent satellite constellations in calculating its (the receiver's) navigation solution (ex.-Position, Velocity, Time (PVT) solution), thereby overcoming weaknesses inherent in currently available systems and methods, which rely on only a single satellite constellation.
