WISDOM (Wise Integration of Satellites PNT tracking Data using OWL for collision avoidance Management) is an ESA NAVISP-supported project that develops and demonstrates technologies for autonomous satellite collision avoidance. The mission will be carried out with a 6U CubeSat that separates into two 3U CubeSats, each equipped with GNSS and the OWL (Orbital Whereabout Locator) system for…Subcontractors

In the last years there has been a growing interest in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations to provide telecommunication and navigation PNT services, both from commercial and governmental entities. ESA’s LEO PNT constellation proposes an augmented-PNT service compared to the classical MEO or GEO satellites in current GNSS systems. In this context, GMV proposes the development of an Engineering… -
Start date: 15/12/2023Duration: 24 MonthsThe scope of the project is the design of an IC integrated circuit (single die) that implements the front-end receiver section of GNSS multi-band signal receiver space-born platforms. The frontend receiver includes all the circuits from the antenna to the ADC output and provides the digitalised output to the GNSS units base-band processors or SW receivers. The target applications are all GNSS… -
Currently, most of the launchers rely on inertial navigation, which introduces fundamental limitations both at performance and economical levels. In this scenario, hybrid solutions making use of GNSS capabilities emerge as an interesting alternative. One of the most mature initiatives within Europe, promoted by ESA and AVIO, consists of the development of a hybrid navigation unit for the future…Subcontractors

Start date: 11/08/2023Duration: 36 MonthsGMV’s end-to-end Safe HA solution comprises a complete E2E chain of elements from GNSS sensor stations and SSR corrections to the end user on-board Positioning Engine. The scope of the ENGINE project is to design, develop, validate and incorporate into an already operational service a set of new features and evolutions. The final goal will be to improve the positioning solution performance,… -
Start date: 25/05/2023Duration: 30 MonthsThe Voliera (overall) project has been conceived to develop a stand-alone localization platform independent from the current on-board subsystem with the aim to minimize the wayside components linked to the localization. Voliera project foresees different phases by following an engineering development. In the phase 2 there are 2 main goals: -develop the tools needed to verify the properties…Subcontractors

CHARLI project aims to offer a new localization service to make rescue workers safer during an intervention. Today, no commercialized solution meets the requirements of precise and reliable tracking of emrgency agents: agents still die due to a lack of positioning solution. CHARLI solution is based on a foot-mounted localization device and innovative alogorithms that allow the poitionSubcontractors

The objective of the activity is to develop a manufactor a prototype of an intgerated multi band and multi constellation GNSS antenna for high precision on ground applications. -
The activity is a development of a space segment compact C-Band LNA for use in Geostationary and Non-Geostationary Orbits. Its primary target is SBAS applications, but the Product will be capable to cover the full C-Band. The key function of the unit is to receive a signal at Uplink C-Band to feed the signal into the C-to L-Band downconverter for L-Band signal processing. Typical input signals…Prime contractor

To address higher requirements in the GNSS market, in particular the reception of signals with higher bandwidth and poor amplitude levels, Saphyrion has developed, through an ESA contract the next generation of GNSS RF-Front-end ASICs, called SY1009 and the SY2001. The SY1009 is a radiation hardened L-band RF down-converter for GNSS receivers. The SY2001 is a radiation hardened fractional-N…
