[from "Introduction"] The dissertation is divided into four chapters: Chapter I. "Terminological synthesis of concepts: availability, reliability and continuity in literature on navigation" - covers the study of literature in the field of navigation with regard to the three concepts discussed. They will be characterized with respect to both their nature, and methods of determination navigational purposes. As a result of the analysis, drawn will be conclusions related to the existing differences in perception of the terms, narrowing down of their meaning in navigation, as well as constraints of the models recommended. Chapter II. "General model of the availability, reliability and continuity" - here the definition of navigational structure will be constructed. This definition is indispensable for the process of system modeling. The mathematical model of alternative process with restoration will be worked out, based on the mathematical description of navigational systems’ states. As a result, mathematical relations of availability, reliability and continuity will be formulated, describing them on a general level. The same model will enable the transposition to time-related formulas, typical of a number navigation processes, i.e. processes - where distributions of lifetimes and times of failures are expressed by exponential equations. Chapter III. "Classical differential GPS systems"- the main thesis will be considered here and include structural models of differential DGPS transmission, providing, in this way, for making a separate individual navigational structure - differential GPS transmission. Consequently, models and measures of reliability, availability and continuity will be proposed for transmission of the RTCM messages (type 1 or 9-3) commonly used in navigation. Chapter IV. "Differential GPS system network" - presents the validation method of DGPS systems in the areas where multiple coverage of several radiobeacons and reference stations exists. An analogous method of modelling as in the classic systems is proposed. A general validation of transmission methods for differential GPS will also be proposed in this chapter. The issues considered in this dissertation, will exemplify a group of single element models - GPS telemetric transmission - within the complex structure of differential GPS. We can assume that a new scientific area will be opened for future deliberations in the fields related to: 1. Optimisation of decision making process when deploying maritime reference stations (DGPS) or land based (permanent GPS/RTK), taking into account: user reliability features, minimum requirements for the basin (area), maximization of task effectiveness and many others. 2. Advantages of multistation system nets in the aspect of position accuracy and operation reliability, also other typical features influencing exploitation. The mathematical model proposed in this dissertation, fills the gap concerning methodology used to determine the magnitude of reliability, continuity and transmission availability in differential GPS systems on surveying level. Thus, more effective way of use in navigation has been provided. General and particular theory introduced to describe navigation systems by means of reliability characteristics enables theoretical considerations over individual elements and easy integration into more complex structures.
