Start date: 07/01/2019Autonomous driving is seen by many as a coming technology disruption that will have profound impacts on industry, society and the economy. One of the great hopes of autonomous driving proponents is the realisation of huge safety improvements. According to the World Health Organization, road accidents account for 3,400 deaths every day around the world. This is more deaths than those caused, for…

Start date: 03/12/2019The exploitation of GNSS time as a reference source for timing and synchronisation processes is becoming fundamental for critical infrastructures like telecommunication networks, energy distribution grids, financial markets, and commercial aviation systems and networks. In the case of commercial aviation, GNSS time is used for: Positioning and timing for on-board navigation…

Start date: 09/01/2020GPS has been used in space for more than 20 years and currently it is consistently used in LEO orbit satellites in order to provide position, velocity and time information. Extension of its use to higher altitude missions has been the subject of multiple studies, GEO and GTO orbits currently exploit GNSS signals and the NASA Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission has recently demonstrated that…

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: 03/05/2021The need for a robust Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) system to complement or back up GNSS in critical infrastructure/critical applications is widely acknowledged. This translates into actions taken by stakeholders to further raise awareness (e.g. radio navigation plans in the US and Europe) and for some, pave the way towards some deployment (e.g. recent Request for Information initiated by…

Start date: 23/06/2021Funded under NAVISP Element 2, the headline goal of this 11-month project is to demonstrate a proof-of-concept implementation of a hybrid 5G/GNSS-based positioning system. The project will research, develop and draft the preliminary architecture definition, use cases and requirements for the eventual end-to-end system drawing upon the relevant expertise across the consortium. Once concluded the…

Start date: 15/12/2023Albora's product is a cloud solution that provides low-power receivers with high-precision positioning from GNSS observables. This is a one-of-a-kind system where snapshots of GNSS observable samples are transmitted from a receiver to a cloud server for processing. The device only needs to provide certain GNSS observables and have connectivity to the internet. Our technology enables…
