  • 057 - Development of advanced VDES-R user technologies for alternative PNT

    057 - Development of advanced VDES-R user technologies for alternative PNT

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 01/09/2022
    Date of Completion: 28/02/2024
    Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) have become the primary marine aid-to-navigation and source of Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) information. Yet, all GNSS are vulnerable to natural interference, deliberate and accidental jamming and spoofing. Trials have demonstrated that degraded GNSS produce hazardously misleading information and erroneous vessel positions without an alarm being…

    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…

    020 bis - Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning Sensor Fusion for Autonomous Vessel Navigation

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 08/01/2020
    Maritime transport is currently facing new challenges such as significant increases in transport volumes, more stringent environmental requirements and a shortage of seafarers in the future. One of the many new concepts having the potential to overcome these challenges is autonomous ship navigation. In particular, the concept is expected to allow for more efficient and competitive ship operations…

    010 - Independent Critical Navigation - ICING

    Element 3 - Support to Member States
    Start date: 17/08/2020
    Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) information is widely used for a range of critical services. The main sources for PNT information are GNSS satellites. The RF signals provided by the GNSS satellites covers wide areas but are quite weak and vulnerable to unintentional or intentional interference. This has been experienced in Norway. In this project, the novel concept of utilizing the…
