The societal dependency on GNSS is increasing rapidly year after year. Adaptation of GNSS is in many cases done unnoticed by users and is often part of critical business processes.  The main objectives of this project includes the assessment of the current vulnerability of (Dutch) applications in vital infrastructures and sensitive applications as a result of GNSS outages and the potential…

The objective of this project is to demonstrate that crowd-sensed GNSS signals can be effectively used as the sole (or main) data source for an integrity service. Integrity will be provided by allowing the user to assess his guaranteed positioning performance. This is achieved by providing statistical bounds to the residual error components (after applying potential corrections and removing…

GNSS simulations are an important toolset supporting system engineering trade-offs and decisions. They are used to display and monitor key system performance indicators as well as study system behaviour, both through synthetic scenarios and real data replay. Industry and ESA currently use different tools to simulate GNSS systems, however often constrained to undertake only one of two different…

There's huge untapped potential from wind power at high altitudes. The Airborne Wind Energy System (AWES) provides access to these higher and powerful winds using a compact tethered aircraft. One of the problems of the AWES is to have a reliable navigation solution that functions even in case of GNSS outages. DroneHome project aims to tackle that problem by developing a very low cost and…
