The RHEA DOVER-Pathfinder (DOVER) mission aims to demonstrate a novel resilient GNSS capability from Low Earth Orbit (LEO). The DOVER-Pathfinder (DOVER) mission consists of an innovative PNT waveform designed by RHEA-UK; the RHEA DOVER satellite utilising the expertise, integration and test, and rapid time to space of the Open-Cosmos bus, MAIT, and flight control systems; a DOVER ground receiver… -
UK Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) is at significant risk from the loss of access to GNSS for PNT. LF systems such as eLoran can provide a highly robust complement to GNSS. An eLoran transmitter can serve applications hundreds of miles away but the accuracy of the time transfer depends on the radio propagation (at ground level) between the transmitter and the receiver. At levels of… -
The G3ISTAR is a small GPS/Galileo dual-frequency GNSS receiver designed for use by micro-launchers, based on existing GNSS Receiver solution from DEIMOS and a flight-proven platform for CubeSats. The reliability and integrity of the receiver’s navigation solution will be ensured through the development of the Galileo Open Service Navigation Message Authentication (OSNMA) and Failure Detection…Prime contractor

Start date: 20/03/2021Duration: 18 MonthsThe PLATONIC project is to develop cooperative positioning and integrity concepts and algorithms for vehicle platooning. The innovative positioning and integrity concept and algorithms for the vehicle platooning would be based on GNSS (e.g. PPP or moving based RTK), V2X communication, IMU/odometer and V2V relative ranges. In order to demonstrate the developed concepts and to gather…Subcontractors

A great number of civilian and military applications relies on GNSS for PNT, however its availability could be put at risk by threats such as local interference, amongst others. GNSS spectrum monitoring is essential for: detecting, characterising and localising interference sources, which could endanger the adequate reception and processing of GNSS signals; initiating a justified…Prime contractor

Covert Antenna Systems (CAS) in conjunction with The University of Nottingham, are developing a clip-on antenna system with coupler for mobile phones. This system will provide enhanced GNSS reception, enabling improved position estimation from mobile phones. In addition we will also take advantage of the opening of the Android GNSS interface to access the raw GNSS data to enable developers to…Subcontractors

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,… -
Start date: 27/02/2020Duration: 15 MonthsGPS 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…Subcontractors
