Improving European rail traffic management

The objective of the activity is to study GNSS carrier phase integrity techniques for application in railway safety of life applications, and in particular, the evolution of the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) with virtual Balise detection using GNSS.

System Suitability Study for Train Positioning Using GNSS in ERTMS in 2020

ERTMS is an EU initiative with the aim of improving safety and increasing interoperability of rail transport through a Europe-wide standard for train control and command systems, replacing existing national systems. ERTMS consists of two parts: the European Train Control System (ETCS), an automatic train protection system providing in-car train control; and GSM-R, a radio system based on GSM for voice and data communications between the train and trackside.

Resilient GNSS modules for industrial use

Time distribution service improving financial markets

Improve safety and security in public gatherings

AGORA is a project aiming to leverage GNSS positioning in order to improve security and help organizing large public events. It is developed by Romanian InSpace Engineering (RISE) as part of the ESA NAVISP Element 2 Programme.

Improved asset tracking and device management

The MISSATO project will develop 5 distinct GNSS antennas operating on L1/L2/L5 bands on the GPS and Galileo GNSS networks. The products will able to receive L1/L2/L5 GPS/Galileo frequency bands required for vehicular/asset tracking and device management. The antennas are being specifically designed for applications requiring cm-level positioning unavailable with older GNSS antennas.

Interference immunity for navigation services

A multi-constellation antenna for transport and agricultural use

This activity aims to develop a high performance, low profile multi-constellation antenna targeting survey, Precision Agriculture, Marine and Aviation market segments.

Improving aircraft landing performance with GNSS

The proposed product consists of a GNSS receiver antenna with extremely high performance that would address the suppression of the multipath from ground reflection. It shall integrate the Indra Navia GBAS ground station for landing aircraft in zero visibility conditions.  

Resilient and informed smartgrids for efficient electricity distributioun 

The project is the development of a new type of smartgrid distribution automation sensor platform which uses high speed waveform analysis and high accuracy time stamping to provide electricity Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) with detailed high fidelity information about the operation of their distribution network.
