Start date: 16/04/2021Duration: 18 MonthsThe Hybrid Overlay Positioning with 5G and GNSS (HOP-5G) project targets the demonstration of a 5G local overlay testbed for enhanced user positioning, in combination with GNSS and sensor technologies. Within this project, the HOP-5G consortium focuses on the exploitation of 5G innovative positioning enablers and their hybridisation with GNSS and sensors. This is based on the dedicated…Prime contractor

Start date: 07/04/2021Duration: 17 MonthsCurrent 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…Subcontractors

Quantum 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: 02/03/2021Duration: 18 MonthsRecent 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…Subcontractors

A great number of civilian and military applications relies on GNSS for PNT, however its availability could be put at risk by threats such as local interference, amongst others. GNSS spectrum monitoring is essential for: detecting, characterising and localising interference sources, which could endanger the adequate reception and processing of GNSS signals; initiating a justified…Prime contractor

Start date: 04/01/2021Duration: 12 MonthsThe fast evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT), commercial Cloud platforms, and the future 5G standards are boosting development of new applications and technologies in the PNT field. Devices are expected to be increasingly connected to Internet in the next few years, storage and processing of data in the Cloud is already a reality, with 5G expected to bring very soon higher data rates and… -
Start date: 01/01/2021Duration: 12 MonthsIntentional and unintentional interference are recognized as major threats to users of GNSS-based positioning. Existing detection and mitigation methods lack the adjustability to deal with the ever- increasing complexity in GNSS interference attacks. Our ANTIFERENCE system will employ artificial intelligence to detect both known and never-before-observed interferences. It operates the…Prime contractor

Start date: 16/12/2020Duration: 15 MonthsIt 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…Subcontractors

GNSS 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…Subcontractors
