    222 - MAPS - Maritime Alternative PNT Solution

    Element 2 - Competitiveness in PNT
    Start date: 03/03/2025
    Duration: 48 Months
    Maritime shipping has embraced GNSS to improve safety and efficiency, but the availability and reliability of such systems have in recent years declined. The Maritime Alternative PNT Solution (MAPS) activity aims to demonstrate an Alternative PNT (APNT) solution based on the maritime VHF Data Exchange System (VDES) and the maritime Medium Frequency R-Mode service. The ambition in phase 1 of…

    082 - Low noise frequency tunable microwave generation using photonic integrated microcombs

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 10/12/2024
    Duration: 24 Months
    Photonic integrated circuits embed complex optical systems in compact chips manufactured in semiconductor foundries. The availability of high-speed modulation, ultra-low propagation losses, and discovery of the optical microcomb have revolutionized many aspects of integrated photonics in the last 15 years. In particular, new applications in microwave photonics by translating electronic signals to…

  • 151 - Miniaturized Power Effective SBAS C-Band LNA

    151 - Miniaturized Power Effective SBAS C-Band LNA

    Element 2 - Competitiveness in PNT
    Start date: 21/03/2023
    Duration: 16 Months
    The activity is a development of a space segment compact C-Band LNA for use in Geostationary and Non-Geostationary Orbits. Its primary target is SBAS applications, but the Product will be capable to cover the full C-Band. The key function of the unit is to receive a signal at Uplink C-Band to feed the signal into the C-to L-Band downconverter for L-Band signal processing. Typical input signals…
