Start date: 15/01/2018GNSS is the only global, free, comprehensive technology providing absolute PNT data to users worldwide. Its limitations are known, including long life cycle and replenishment schedule, affecting their ability to adapt easily to short-term market needs and to some extent, resilience. Considering the above, alternative PNT methods and solutions have been developed or are being investigated,…

Start date: 21/02/2018Current IMO work on guidelines for shipborne PNT data processing will define a high level framework for the processing and combination of data of multiple systems and sensors in a maritime PNT receiver. The definition of IMO guidelines are expected to significantly progress in the course of 2017. Therefore, it is considered of paramount importance to complement this work with further studies on…

Start date: 23/01/2018The Galileo System Time (GST) timescale is the cornerstone for the operations and performance of the Galileo System. It should be stable, traceable and always available. The current system time is provided via a physical on-ground clock which limits the performance. A time scale built with pulsar measurements, i.e. measurements from celestial objects emitting radiation in pulses, would typically…

Start date: 01/06/2019Precise relative positioning in MEO (Medium Earth Orbit, at altitudes ranging between 2,000 and 36,000 km) exploiting GNSS is a subject that has been little explored while having high potential for enabling an interesting set of applications based on space-to-space interferometry. Establishing accurate inter-satellite baselines based on GNSS measurements would open the door to new missions at…

Start date: 04/01/2021The fast evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT), commercial Cloud platforms, and the future 5G standards are boosting development of new applications and technologies in the PNT field. Devices are expected to be increasingly connected to Internet in the next few years, storage and processing of data in the Cloud is already a reality, with 5G expected to bring very soon higher data rates and…

Start date: 05/03/2021The project aims to develop a Cloud-based Snapshot GNSS solution that provides augmented levels of sensitivity, potentially extending the use of GNSS PNT services to degraded, or even currently denied scenarios, such as urban canyons or mild indoor facilities. Within the project, Albora is developing a disruptive technology, ALCORE, based on the combination of high sensitivity techniques and…
