  • 012 - High-Altitude Pseudo-Satellites for PNT

    012 - High-Altitude Pseudo-Satellites for PNT

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 15/10/2018
    High-Altitude Pseudo-Satellites (HAPS) are airships “quasi-”stationed at a height of 20-30 km, in an altitude range where atmospheric winds are milder. HAPS are normally solar powered, unmanned, large, helium filled and semi-rigid; they can be operational for several years. HAPS have been studied in the telecom domain (ESA GSP HAPPIEST study), where they were briefly considered as: An…

    045 - Multi-layer PNT for SAR

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 05/11/2020
    Satellite Search and Rescue (SAR) standards are set and overseen by COSPASSARSAT. SAR instruments are currently flying on board MEO satellites in several GNSS constellations. These platforms complement the existing LEOSAR and GEOSAR satellites. Existing LEO/GEOSAR are slow in detecting an active beacon due to several limitations in design (limited satellites, fast orbits, no independent location…

    040 - Next Generation network-assisted PNT assurance

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 27/10/2021
    The demand for accurate, reliable and secure Position, Navigation and Time (PNT) solution, from a number of different applications include the National Critical Infrastructures (CNI), is increasing. GNSS is a key technology for high-performance PNT, due to its high levels of accuracy, global coverage and its lack of service cost. On the other hand, the spoofing of GNSS is an evolving threat,…
