The EGNSS MATE project aims to develop a solution for the problem of localising trains in an accurate and safe manner. Positioning information enables moving block operations in the European Traffic Management System, allowing capacity increases and fixed asset reductions on exisiting lines. Within this project, map assisted sensor fusion algorithms will be developed by DLR. The algorithm…

Current GEO and GTO missions already exploit GNSS signals for in-orbit PNT. NASA’s MMS mission has recently demonstrated that tracking of GPS signals is possible up to 150,000 km from Earth surface (half-way the distance to the Moon).  The feasibility of extending the use of GNSS for missions to the Moon has also preliminarily been assessed by ESA via GSP. These preliminary studies have…

GPS has been used in space for more than 20 years and currently it is consistently used in LEO orbit satellites in order to provide position, velocity and time information. Extension of its use to higher altitude missions has been the subject of multiple studies, GEO and GTO orbits currently exploit GNSS signals and the NASA Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission has recently demonstrated that…

DETECTRION is an Interference detection oriented GNSS RF Recording and Playback System able to operate in an autonomous and reliable manner in response to interferences by detecting them and recording a pre-programmed set of GNSS bands upon these events. DETECTRION is a market innovation, since currently there are no standalone products that integrate all features foreseen in this project.…

To address higher requirements from customers, Saphyrion has developed, through an internal project the SY1007A and SY1017A devices, which consist of an RF front-end and an AD/DA-converter ASIC for GNSS applications. The SY1007A is a radiation hardened L-band RF down-converter for GNSS receivers aimed at the professional and space markets. It includes all functional blocks needed to implement the…
