Start date: 09/10/2024Duration: 27 MonthsODYSSEY (Orbits-as-a-Service for Satellite Signals of Opportunity) is funded through Element 2 of the ESA NAVISP programme and is being carried out by GMV-UK. It will develop a precise orbit determination centre for communications satellite constellations. This will be used to provide a new commercial service generating precise orbits for different satellite constellations whose signals can be… -
Start date: 01/10/2024Duration: 36 MonthsDue to the proliferation of jamming sources, localizing the source of RFI is becoming a priority. For GNSS users, especially the ones concerned with safety applications and critical infrastructures, but not limited to, it is imperative to be situationally aware of local GNSS interference. The GINKO-S Phase 2 product encompasses the minimum system configuration necessary to verify the…Subcontractors

Start date: 13/09/2024Duration: 18 MonthsThe EPIC aims to address to develop algorithms and a SW simulator for combined usage of GNSS, LEO-PNT and 5G terrestrial transmitters to achieve high precision PPP-IAR solutions even in urban environments. The drivers for this activity are: ▪ Usage of alternative-PNT (LEO-PNT, 5G) means, in case GNSS is partially or fully not available ▪ Usage of additional-PNT (LEO-PNT, 5G) means…Subcontractors

Start date: 11/09/2024Duration: 12 MonthsReliable Integer Ambiguity Resolution (IAR) of carrier-phase measurements is critical for Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) high accuracy positioning. State-of-the-art IAR strategies employ well-established processes (float estimation, decorrelation and searching) which, however, cannot deem efficient for real-time kinematic applications. Analytically, by virtue of weak models, biases…Prime contractor

The GNSS-R Technology for Water Leaks Detection project aims to engineer an instrument, which can be installed in any vehicle, capable of pre-localizing water losses using the technique of scatterometry. This technique involves driving a vehicle over the water pipe, identifying the sections with different moisture content than the average measurements. In this way, operators can avoid the… -
Start date: 01/09/2024Duration: 18 MonthsThis project aims to develop a novel white-box GNSS receiver with a unique capability: achieving faster-than-real-time operation. This innovation will significantly accelerate development and testing cycles. The project will leverage the high-throughput capabilities of an AMD/Xilinx Versal board to realize this functionality. Furthermore, the project will culminate in the creation of a…Prime contractor

Integer Ambiguity Resolution (IAR) concerns the successful resolution of unknown integer ambiguities present in carrier-phase measurements, which exhibit millimeter-level precision. In the context of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) precise positioning and navigation, the IAR process is fundamental, as once ambiguities are correctly resolved, the phase data acts as ultra-precise…Subcontractors
