Abstract
A method of detecting an operation to spoof a first positioning device carried by a first vehicle moving in a zone in which at least one second vehicle carrying a second positioning device is also moving, the method comprising the step of causing at least one first positioning value to be calculated for each vehicle from initial satellite signals received by each device; the method being characterized in that it further comprises the steps of: causing the second device to initiate a latching stage in order to make a new search for satellite signals and using the new satellite signals received by the second device to calculate a second positioning value for the second vehicle at the same instant as the first value; comparing the first and second values relating to the second vehicle; and issuing a warning when the two values do not coincide.
