The paper focuses on using GLONASS in state-of-the-art combined GNSS (GPS/GLONASS) receivers in the light of the GPS and GLONASS current status. The launch of GLONASS-M satellite is an important event that opens new horizons for satellite navigation. Correspondingly, the description of advantages associated with new hardware and new navigation data of GLONASS-M satellites is given. Also, current status of GLONASS and plans of its modernization are considered. For combined use of GPS and GLONASS, interoperability issues that originate from differences in initial designing of both systems need to be resolved.
