GNSS signals are widely used for time synchronization purposes in many different application sectors, including telecom, finance and energy. Telecom service providers, in particular, consider GNSS-based synchronization well adapted to macro-cells whereas alternative synchronization technologies (e.g. wire-based solutions like Precise Time Protocol) are deemed more suitable for indoor small cells,…

The goal of the proposed project is to develop a modem for Two-Way Satellite Time and Frequency Transfer (TWSTFT), based on a fully digital implementation, challenging the current state-of-art performance, and finished to allow small series industrial production and operation requirements. The technique of TWSTFT is known for decades. The main usage nowadays is in the field of world-wide…

The objective of the project is to perform an In-Orbit-Demonstration of Precise Point Positioning technology on-board Norsat-TD. Norsat-TD is a technology demonstration mission coordinated by the Norwegian Space Agency to demonstrate key space-based technologies relevant to Norwegian industry.

Critical applications such as autonomous vehicles and machine control require high fidelity raw measurements in challenging environments. In spite of significant progress made in recent years, for those applications GNSS performance remains unsatisfactory in terms of reliability in challenging environments, therefore requiring improvement. The main challenges lie in handling transfer functions…

The VaGAD project is aiming at developing a new product for calibration and for validation of GNSS receivers in the automotive industry for levels 3/4 of automation and under real world conditions. The system will use airborne high-resolution image data  which are precisely georeferenced with Ground Control Points derived from satellite Radar measurements. This system will provide a reference…
