    031 - Precise Timing for Indoor Small Cells

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 07/07/2020
    Duration: 12 Months
    GNSS signals are widely used for time synchronization purposes in many different application sectors, including telecom, finance and energy. Telecom service providers, in particular, consider GNSS-based synchronization well adapted to macro-cells whereas alternative synchronization technologies (e.g. wire-based solutions like Precise Time Protocol) are deemed more suitable for indoor small cells,…

    034 - AI-enabled baseband algorithms for high-fidelity measurements

    Element 1 - Innovation in satellite Navigation
    Start date: 15/06/2020
    Duration: 12 Months
    Critical applications such as autonomous vehicles and machine control require high fidelity raw measurements in challenging environments. In spite of significant progress made in recent years, for those applications GNSS performance remains unsatisfactory in terms of reliability in challenging environments, therefore requiring improvement. The main challenges lie in handling transfer functions…

    EPIC

    Element 2 - Competitiveness in PNT
    Start date: 04/05/2020
    Duration: 18 Months
    The project will develop an advanced GNSS receiver combined with an external clock that fulfils the requirements of ITU’s ePRTC standard. The main requirements of ePRTC are a maximum time error of 30 ns in locked mode (i.e., when using GNSS signals in nominal conditions), and a maximum time error of 100 ns after 14 days in holdover mode (i.e., after a total loss of GNSS signals). The potential…

    Element 2 - Competitiveness in PNT
    Start date: 10/04/2020
    Duration: 24 Months
    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…
