Start date: 30/11/2024Duration: 18 MonthsThe main objective of the project is to assess the utilization of Factor Graph Optimization (FGO) for GNSS-based (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) determination. This picks up on recent research suggesting that the results from FGO are superior to those of conventional Bayes filters. As the basis for the evaluation, an FGO-based navigation engine and a…

Start date: 28/11/2024Duration: 12 MonthsA concept for precise Time Transfer via Viasat’s Global Xpress (GX) satellites in GEO, ultimately independent of any GNSS, has been developed and referred to as Global Xpress Time Transfer. The concept uses enhanced orbit determination data and will make use of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) signals in the global beam of the satellite adjacent to the global signalling channel. In the first…

Start date: 27/11/2024Duration: 18 MonthsThis project is motivated by the introduction of regulatory requirements relating to the transport of dangerous or controlled materials, safely, securely, and affordably. Hazardous materials are defined under the Transport of Dangerous Goods acts, while controlled materials are defined under the Supply-Chain Due Diligence acts. The intention is to offer a service to large scale enterprises…

Start date: 07/11/2024Duration: 18 MonthsFactor graphs are widely used in robotics, especially for simultaneous localization and mapping, but also in filtering and smoothing, model-based signal processing, artificial intelligence, coding and decoding. They serve as probabilistic models where variable nodes are associated with system states, and factors are associated with measurements. The factor graphs techniques have been applied to…

Start date: 04/11/2024Duration: 31 MonthsThis project aims to develop vehicular antennas for PNT and 5G/6G SatCom/Cellular applications, which are integrated into the glass roof of a car. Antennas will be designed, prototyped and benchmarked towards current state-of-the-art. By using transparent (or hidden) glass integrated vehicular antenna systems, Volvo Cars not only improves car design and carbon footprint, but also strengthens…

Start date: 31/10/2024Duration: 15 MonthsFactor graph optimization is gaining attention from the community as is outperforming traditional positioning algorithms. Factor graph optimization may be used to replace the traditional Weighted Least Square (WLS) or Kalman Filter (KF)-based solutions, both in stand-alone and hybrid positioning solutions in combination with sensors. Thus, its application may be of interest for the derivation of…

Start date: 31/10/2024Duration: 18 MonthsPositioning, Navigation, and Timing are essential for modern infrastructure, including transportation, agriculture, and space applications. Thanks to developments in GNSS, particularly the European Galileo system, navigation devices are now ubiquitous, with smartphones serving as multi-sensor platforms. However, high-quality positioning solutions are not always guaranteed due to weak GNSS signals,…
