description Abstract: The article presents the results of research on determining the UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) position using the SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System) positioning method for the EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) support system. The experiment used a single-frequency AsteRx-m2 UAS receiver, which recorded GPS (Global Positioning System) satellite observations and EGNOS corrections. The test flight was performed in 2020 near Warsaw. Navigational calculations for determining the position of the UAV during the flight were made in the gLAB v.5.5.1 software. Based on the performed calculations, the following were determined: BSP coordinates in the ellipsoidal system BLh, mean errors of BSP coordinates, and values of DOP (Dilution of Precision) geometric coefficients. In addition, during the calculations, it was found that the mean error values of the determined BSP coordinates do not exceed 3.6 m, and the maximum value of the geometric coefficient GDOP (Geometric DOP) is less than 3.5. Keywords: SBAS, EGNOS, BSP, mean errors, DOP
