Start date: 19/12/2024Duration: 24 MonthsThe proliferation of so-called “mega-constellations” in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) for global telecommunication coverage provides an opportunity for diversifying navigation signals from space without the need for additional dedicated satellites. The concept of Signals of Opportunity (SOOP) Positioning allows a user to determine their position based on signals not designed for navigation. The…Prime contractor

Start date: 17/12/2024Duration: 18 MonthsThe objective of this project is to develop, implement, and demonstrate robust GNSS positioning solutions for autonomous driving using low-cost antenna arrays on low-Size Weight and Power (SWaP) platforms. By leveraging signals from these antenna arrays, subject to multipath and interference, the project aims to enhance PNT solution robustness through innovative techniques. These solutions will be…Subcontractors

Affordable navigation modules bundled with data connectivity and vehicle management software to allow small OEMs make their vehicles autonomous. These vehicles will address needs in delivery, logistics, agriculture, and utility applications -
Start date: 10/12/2024Duration: 24 MonthsPhotonic integrated circuits embed complex optical systems in compact chips manufactured in semiconductor foundries. The availability of high-speed modulation, ultra-low propagation losses, and discovery of the optical microcomb have revolutionized many aspects of integrated photonics in the last 15 years. In particular, new applications in microwave photonics by translating electronic signals to…Prime contractor

The goal of the project is to support highly demanded services, navigation and time distributions, including high accuracy PPP solutions, such as the one provide by Galileo HAS, together with a radio communication channel, by offering an integrated solution, which could fit multiple FPGA end user equipment on the land, airborne and maritime application. This solution delivers combined benefits… -
Start date: 30/11/2024Duration: 18 MonthsThe main objective of this activity is to investigate innovative navigation algorithms exploiting FGO, both for a standalone GNSS unit and in combination with other sensors (INS), and for different receiver grades (including high- and low-quality modules). The activity will benchmark both the potential accuracy improvement and the computational cost of the proposed algorithms (in view of realtime…Subcontractors

Start date: 30/11/2024Duration: 18 MonthsSome of the greatest challenges that connected and automated ground vehicles face are safe path planning, navigation, self-localisation and positioning. This includes the system being able to reason about its environment and decide which path to take or being able to re-plan should the initial path present obstacles or traffic. JLR aims to develop a testbed capable of testing a Factor Graph…Prime contractor

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…Subcontractors

Start date: 30/11/2024Duration: 15 MonthsEnhanced Positioning services on authenticated Enterprise Infrastructure, EPISODE, for the first time, delivers a positioning and navigation-aware, analytical, and business integration-ready platform that can provide GNSS-like capability in ALL GNSS-denied areas globally, allowing legacy and new ‘fixed’ infrastructure that is enabled through the latest, best-of-breed, terrestrial PNT enabled… -
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…Subcontractors
