Accepted on 16th March 2024.
I received comments from two reviewers in mid-February after revising the manuscript in early January. The decision was pending for a month before finally being accepted by the editor. It seemed slow, but considering the whole process from submission to acceptance took six months, it wasn't too bad overall

Submitted on September 23, 2023
Entered peer review on October 24, 2023
Decision pending on November 26, 2023
Received minor revisions on December 20, 2023, with feedback from the editor-in-chief, editorial board member, and two reviewers. The feedback from the editor-in-chief and editorial board member mainly focused on formatting and was minimal. The feedback from the two reviewers included more than 15 points each, but fortunately they both found the research interesting and recommend publication. One month was given to make the revisions, otherwise the manuscript would be treated as a new submission. Currently working on making the necessary revisions.

Overall, the journal's reputation is good, and feedback from colleagues indicates that it is not considered a low-quality journal. Initial review took three months

The recommended paper for the ION Navigation Annual Conference was submitted to this journal, and it still has a certain influence in the field of satellite navigation. However, the speed of the review process is really not commendable. It took four months for the first review round, and it took two months to receive the major revisions.

The editor-in-chief, the editorial staff, and two anonymous reviewers all provided comments, totaling 25 comments. Among them, both the editor-in-chief and the editorial staff made two suggestions, which were relatively fair. One reviewer considered the paper to be innovative and provided minor revisions along with three minor suggestions. The other reviewer provided major revisions with 19 suggestions, but the comments were objective and did not nitpick. After adding experiments and explanations, they agreed to accept the paper.

Overall, the impression this journal gave me is very professional. The number of papers accepted each year is particularly low, around 40-60, with only a dozen or so per quarter. It is more difficult than some Q1 journals, perhaps because it has a certain recognition in the specialized field of PNT. The editors and reviewers are very professional, and I suggest submitting papers in the fields of satellite navigation, remote sensing, positioning, and timing! But if you are in a hurry to graduate, please don't submit here. Remote sensing, measurement, and even GPS solutions are much faster than this.

August 1, 2022: Submission
December 31, 2022: First-round review comments returned
February 1, 2023: Revision submitted (required to respond to comments and make changes within two months)
April 1, 2023: Received acceptance email on April Fool's Day.

How long will it take to receive news about the pending decision?

The ION conference paper was recommended to this journal. Although the Impact Factor is not high, it is highly recognized in the field of navigation. The submission process is as follows:
SUBMITTED (20-Oct-2021)
Major Revision (29-Dec-2021)
A revision has been submitted (25-Jan-2022)
Major Revision (09-Apr-2022)
A revision has been submitted (20-Apr-2022)
Accept (14-Jul-2022)
I suggest reminding them to expedite the manuscript, as the editor-in-chief seems to not check emails often!

May I ask if any friends have submitted to this journal before? Why is it still pending editor assignment after a month?
