  • 025 - Multi-Sensor, Multi-System for Space PNT Applications

    025 - Multi-Sensor, Multi-System for Space PNT Applications

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 19/05/2021
    Date of Completion: 21/05/2021
    Position uncertainty during autonomous manoeuvres such as orbit-raising/de-orbiting requires that the local knowledge during low thrust (i.e. with electric propulsion) is accurately determined. Current orbit-raising assumes semi-autonomous control assisted by GNSS, with a long time integral to measure increasing altitude and trajectory of the satellite. The use of a hybrid GNSS unit that…

    Element 2 - Competitiveness in PNT
    Start date: 27/07/2018
    The main objective of the activity is to design and develop a prototype of a GNSS sensor that will support automotive applications. Our strategy is to develop such device in the form of a “software radio” design that can be configured to allow its implementation in COTS system-on-a chip devices. This device is aimed to support multiple GNSS constellation with a multi-frequency…

    To find a presentation summarizing the now completed activity, click here. To find the abstract, click here. The DRACONAV project developed an industrial version of a secure GNSS module able to detect GNSS signal spoofing, replay and jamming attacks and provide an estimated PVT (Dead Reckoning) when an attack is detected. The module integrates in a unique casing a multi-constellation GNSS…

    022 - Low-cost multi-frequency multi-constellation GNSS antenna for CubeSats

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 03/09/2018
    Satellites flying in LEO are relying more and more on Precise Orbit Determination (POD) through GNSS and in particular the computation of real time on-board POD with accuracy at centimetre level. Receivers for in-orbit demonstration of Precise Point Positioning (PPP) currently under development under NAVISP (NAVISP-EL1-009: ‘Space GNSS Receiver for Un-Orbit Demonstration of PPP’) and the…

    013 bis - Quantum-based sensing for PNT

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 11/02/2020
    The exploitation of quantum physics has already enabled revolutionary technical applications and industries of enormous economic scale. The semiconductor industry alone is currently a €500 billion market, giving rise to industries on an even larger scale (smartphones, computing, software, etc.). Quantum physics is now again set to radically change several industries, including communications,…

    036 - Precise positioning for mass-market: optimal data dissemination demonstrator

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 04/11/2019
    Until recently, RTK and PPP technologies have been developed for professional applications, the price not being affordable for mass-market users. Over the last couple of years, however, impressive breakthroughs have been witnessed for mass-market applications. While multi-band GNSS will provide an improved user experience in many consumer settings, the solution alone cannot deliver sufficiently…

    034 - AI-enabled baseband algorithms for high-fidelity measurements

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 15/06/2020
    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…
