Start date: 08/12/2022In conventional Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) receivers, tracking is performed in several independent tracking loops that provide measurements (pseudo ranges, pseudo range rates, carrier Doppler) to a navigation algorithm (Kalman filter), controlling the Position, Velocity, Time (PVT) solution. In Vector Tracking Loop (VTL) , the two tasks of signal tracking and PVT estimations are…

Start date: 13/12/2022Moon exploration is emerging as the next global strategic priority in space exploration. Several dozens of commercial and institutional missions to the Moon are planned for the coming decades, with a major contribution also expected from ESA (e.g. Orion service module, ESA participation in Gateway lunar station and contribution to multiple lunar robotic missions). In spite of the wide variety of…

Start date: 23/01/2023There is an abundance of GNSS receivers deployed around the world providing measurements and PNT information, which are currently combined into networks for a variety of GNSS processing and monitoring applications. However, these receivers remain vulnerable and cannot be used to isolate all sources of error on all GNSS signals and constellations due to the processed nature of the receiver output,…

Start date: 15/01/2023The world economic trade has continuously increased over the past decades. For the maritime business, this had led to larger and larger ships and denser traffic. Examples of famous waterways are the Suez Channel, the Kiel Channel, and the Malakka Strait near Singapore. The latter one is passed by 200 to 250 container ships daily that transport 25 % of the global maritime transportation…

Start date: 20/12/2022The European Air Transportation Systems as well as the Space Missions ground segments are large and complex “systems of systems” based on legacy and state-of-the-art technology. Like other industrial control systems, they have unique performance, reliability, and safety requirements. UAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems) are well on the way to becoming a major player in the field aviation and a…

Start date: 15/02/2023The OpSTAR Phase 0 study is a first step in the development of an in-orbit Testbed for payloads enabling bi-directional Optical Links for time-transfer and ranging. The Testbed product comprises two identical satellites, each carrying a payload hosting the core technologies, as well as two ground stations, the ground processing facility and equipment. It will be designed to execute a number…

Start date: 23/01/2023The EGNSS MATE project aims to develop a solution for the problem of localising trains in an accurate and safe manner. Positioning information enables moving block operations in the European Traffic Management System, allowing capacity increases and fixed asset reductions on exisiting lines. Within this project, map assisted sensor fusion algorithms will be developed by DLR. The algorithm…

Start date: 21/02/2023Location has become an essential component of everyone’s life, particularly when it comes to travel, navigation, and mobility. Initially through the incorporation of GNSS and GNSS-enabled applications on the Smartphone; more and more it has been integrated into other everyday items, such as the Smart Car (Tesla etc.), real-time delivery tracking, bus route information, etc. In parallel with…

Start date: 28/03/2023MEOSAR is the new reference for Cospas-Sarsat system, relying on SAR payloads deployed on all GNSS constellations and MEOLUTs deployed worldwide. The first two MEOLUTs (Florida, France) have been officially approved in 2016. However, first operational results have rapidly shown a performance degradation compared to LEOSAR when the beacon was moving. Since then, it evolved to take into account…
