EGNOS Signal Distorsion Technology
Start date: 01/03/2018Duration: 22 MonthsActivity Code: H2020-019
Category: EGNOS
Theme: Space Segment
This activity defines and validates advanced techniques for the monitoring of nominal and non-nominal signal distortions. The activity is analyzing, very thoroughly, potential advanced monitors that rely on prior assumptions on the characteristics of the non-nominal distortion (amongst these, a "Chip-Domain-Observable (CDO)" monitor, and a “Beta-Metrics (BM)” monitor), for which a…G2G Test User Receiver Technologies Framework - WO3: Open service bread-board emulating professional platforms
Start date: 01/06/2018Duration: 34 MonthsActivity Code: H2020-008.03
Category: Technology
Theme: User Technology
This activity targets the design, implementation, integration and test of a Bread Board (BB) emulating current and future performances of a number of positioning mid-end/high-end platforms (where robust high-accuracy is a driving factor) relying on Galileo 2nd Generation OS SIS, multi-constellation, multi-frequency and sensor hybridisation/fusion. In particular, the BB focuses on the Autonomous…Prime contractor

Flexible Payload and Signal Generation Technology Framework WO1: Augmented Reconfigurable payload
Start date: 01/04/2019Duration: 99 MonthsActivity Code: H2020-011.01
Category: Galileo
Theme: System
The objective of this WO is to study an Augmented Reconfigurable payload (AURE-PL), by considering novel architectures for flexibility and configurability. The AURE-PL is conceived as a small fully (in-orbit) reconfigurable navigation payload. It shall broadcast a subset of Galileo signal components/ channels, which can be reconfigured during the satellite lifetime to cover different…Prime contractor
