Start date: 28/01/2025Duration: 24 MonthsCurrently, 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…

MEDEA is an EGNSS/INMARSAT Rx multiband digital array antenna that covers the two bandwidths from 1150 up to 1290 MHz and from 1539 to 1610 MHz. MEDEA can be considered a sort of “applique equipment” for any standard GNSS receivers because of, in addition to gather RF signal from the outside space, it embeds a few features to improve the integrity of the receiver operations to which it is…

Start date: 01/10/2024Duration: 36 MonthsDue to the proliferation of jamming sources, localizing the source of RFI is becoming a priority. For GNSS users, especially the ones concerned with safety applications and critical infrastructures, but not limited to, it is imperative to be situationally aware of local GNSS interference. The GINKO-S Phase 2 product encompasses the minimum system configuration necessary to verify the…
