Start date: 19/02/2021Envisage Space has developed analytical software which we call RelyMap, which is designed to analyse wide areas (pan-city/region) of a complex urban environment and identify areas where GNSS signal provision is either impacted or blocked due to anomalies such as building shadowing etc.RelyMap Enhance builds upon this technology and understanding to enable improved location accuracy for GNSS…

Start date: 23/11/2020GNSS simulations are an important toolset supporting system engineering trade-offs and decisions. They are used to display and monitor key system performance indicators as well as study system behaviour, both through synthetic scenarios and real data replay. Industry and ESA currently use different tools to simulate GNSS systems, however often constrained to undertake only one of two different…

Start date: 21/03/2021Quantum metrology techniques show great potential to enhance both precision and security of existing PNT techniques. It has been shown that, by probing physical quantities using quantum states of light and/or matter, one can achieve a precision beyond the theoretical limit set by classical mechanics. This effect has been demonstrated in a variety of contexts and is particularly useful in optical…

Start date: 16/12/2020It is long debated whether a relation exists between the tidal stress produced by the Moon and the Sun on the Earth crust and the occurrence of difference geologic events, in particular large earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Clear evidence for this relation has been elusive for a long time. However, the analysis of more complete global earthquake catalogues has shown that a significant…

Start date: 11/01/2021Recent advances in technology have contributed to the deployment of a "de-facto" large GNSS receiver array based on affordable smart devices that are easy to find in the consumer market (dual band smartphones, raw GNSS data recording, new sensors). These devices, evolving fast with each new generation, feature an increasing number of capabilities and sensors able to collect a variety of…

Start date: 07/04/2021Current GEO and GTO missions already exploit GNSS signals for in-orbit PNT. NASA’s MMS mission has recently demonstrated that tracking of GPS signals is possible up to 150,000 km from Earth surface (half-way the distance to the Moon). The feasibility of extending the use of GNSS for missions to the Moon has also preliminarily been assessed by ESA via GSP. These preliminary studies have…

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…
