Results of simulation are compared with the published experimental data. Simulation results are satisfactory close to experimentally obtained characteristics of gas species. The results show how to identify different gas species by using dielectric properties of thin polymer film. This is possible because every gas species have different resonant frequency.

In an attempt to at least partially improve the GPS positioning process, a global ionospheric correction model is introduced within the standard GPS positioning service. Referred to as the Klobuchar model after its inventor, this model appeared as a compromise between computation complexity and correction accuracy. Unfortunately, the Klobuchar model is capable of correcting up to 70% of ionospheric errors, with particularly poor performance during severe ionospheric disturbances. Wide implementations of satellite navigation systems (GPS in particular) in modern technical systems call for better corrections of the ionospheric influence.
