Start date: 01/09/2022Date of Completion: 28/02/2024Global 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…Prime contractor

Start date: 19/05/2021Date of Completion: 21/05/2021Position 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…Prime contractor

Start date: 07/12/2023This project will deliver a system upgrade to the THERE Maps, a smart mapping, addressing and navigation system, developed during the NAVISP EL2-148 project DNA. The project will add enterprise management and user privacy features to the existing prototype, as well as develop accompanying APIs to enable system integration with 3rd party enterprise systems for patient appointments and delivery… -
Start date: 09/01/2019The activity is now completed. To find a copy of the project abstract with the main conclusions and recommendations, click here. The MarRINav (Maritime Resilience and Integrity of Navigation) project proposes activities in the UK national interest to lay the foundations for the UK’s future CNI for maritime and wider sectors in respect of Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) resilience and…Subcontractors

Start date: 14/01/2019There exist a number of applications requiring reliable and accurate navigation services in environments difficult to access where available commercial products struggle to satisfy the variety of user demands. Such applications include very deep indoor applications, for which navigation accuracy and timely operations are critical to users, as for example in emergencies or underwater/urban-canyon…Subcontractors

Start date: 31/03/2020With the aid of co-funding from a previous NAVISP program, Cobham have started the research and development of a GNSS signal protection system using beamforming techniques implemented on a software define digital signal processing board. This previous activity, ‘Project VANTIGE’, has resulted in a number of study reports documenting the best implementation of such a system. Additionally, a… -
Start date: 10/04/2020There'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…Subcontractors

Start date: 23/07/2021The proposed project will build on the existing capabilities offered by the Spire constellation and develop the tools needed for geolocation signal processing, and to apply these toward the specific task of geolocating GNSS interferences coming from the Earth surface. The project will identify geographic areas for likely detection, develop the detection and geolocation algorithms, plan and execute… -
Start date: 21/10/2021As the world moves towards greater levels of autonomy and automation, it is expected that wide-area safety systems and services will become the norm including both terrestrial and GNSS-based safety services. Other major developed economies in the United States/Canada (WAAS), Europe (EGNOS), Japan (MSAS), India (GAGAN), South Korea (KASS), and Australasia (SouthPAN) have now or will soon have…Subcontractors
