This project aims to develop a RAIM prediction system offering modern APIs and easy integration into any flight planning system as well as introducing new innovative features that will allow an aircraft operator to avoid areas of low GNSS accuracy already during the trajectory creation process.  The product (a…

GNSS technology has demonstrated its capability to provide very good performance in Europe up to LPV 200 based on GPS L1 (single frequency, single constellation) and is expected to reach CAT I Autoland with the future DFMC mode (Dual Frequency, Multi Constellations – GPS & GAL). It is very challenging to improve this performance, more specifically the 6-second Time To Alert (TTA) that seems…

ReSPOnSe will focus on upgrading a snapshot based receiver which will enhance battery lifetime without compromising performance. This will be achieved by focussing on upgrading the acquisition (and to a certain limit the Position & Time (P&T)) algorithms within the existing snapshot receiver.

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…

Intentional and unintentional interference are recognized as major threats to users of GNSS-based positioning. Existing detection and mitigation methods lack the adjustability to deal with the ever- increasing complexity in GNSS interference attacks. Our ANTIFERENCE system will employ artificial intelligence to detect both known and never-before-observed interferences. It operates the…

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…

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…
