  • 091 - Proof-of-concept of SOOP with broadband satcom signals in Ku/Ka-band

    091 - Proof-of-concept of SOOP with broadband satcom signals in Ku/Ka-band

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 28/01/2025
    Duration: 24 Months
    Currently, satellite navigation mainly relies on dedicated GNSS constellations in Medium Earth Orbit (MEO).  With the increasing demand for resilient and ubiquitous Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT), several initiatives are underway to diversify the orbits and frequencies for GNSS.  However, the rise of mega-constellations in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) for global telecommunication…

    088 bis - Proof-of-concept of advanced navigation algorithms based on factor graph optimization

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 31/10/2024
    Duration: 15 Months
    Factor graph optimization is gaining attention from the community as is outperforming traditional positioning algorithms. Factor graph optimization may be used to replace the traditional Weighted Least Square (WLS) or Kalman Filter (KF)-based solutions, both in stand-alone and hybrid positioning solutions in combination with sensors. Thus, its application may be of interest for the derivation of…

    Element 2 - Competitiveness in PNT
    Start date: 25/01/2024
    Duration: 18 Months
    Industrial players face significant difficulties in assessing the vulnerability of their GNSS solutions against interference threats. They are unable to make informed decisions to protect themselves against the feared risks. The effects vary considerably from one type of jamming to another, and from one GNSS receiver to another. As far as spoofing attacks are concerned, countermeasure devices are…
