The 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…

Some 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…

The 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…

A 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…

This 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…

Factor 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…

This 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…
