EGNOS: key points

Advantages of EGNOS

EGNOS is European service augmenting GPS accuracy

It is a FREE service

The service is provided by GEO satellites (providing GPS-like structure and frequency signal)

Metre-accuracy provided

9

How to acess EGNOS SIS

To receive the EGNOS signal, an EGNOS compatible receiver (also called SBAS receiver or WAAS receiver) is required. It is like a GPS receiver but with special software enabling the receiver to lock onto the EGNOS satellites and apply the EGNOS corrections to the GPS signal. Today, most of the commercial GPS receivers provide EGNOS capability.

EGNOS in Mapping

12

EGNOS in mapping, why choosing it?

• Surveyors and mappers can mount GPS +EGNOS on vehicles to allow rapid, accurate data collection. Some of these systems communicate wirelessly with reference receivers to deliver continuous, real-time, centimeter-level accuracy and unprecedented productivity gains

• GPS +EGNOS supports the accurate mapping and modeling of the physical world — from mountains and rivers to streets and buildings to utility lines and other resources.

• Features measured with GPS +EGNOS can be displayed on maps and in geographic information systems (GIS) that store, manipulate, and display geographically referenced data.

95% accuracy using the SIS

EGNOS Open Service provides an improved GPS accuracy. In this performance assessment, accuracy for surveying/ mapping is reported as the 95th percentile of the Horizontal Navigation System Error (HNSE) and Vertical Navigations System Error (VNSE) over the month.

Galileo implementation plan

Galileo is implemented in a step-wise approach

By 2020 Galileo will be:• fully deployed and recognised • adopted by the widest user

communities • an independent civilian infrastructure

delivering robust positioning and timing services with high degree of performances

2015:

2 satellites added (27/03)

4 more planned

Open Service: Key points

Advantages of Galileo OS signalsE1/E5 bands

(some starting with Early Services)

Easier mitigation of multipath errors

Higher SNR (signal-to-noise ratio)

Improved coverage at high latitudes

Multi GNSS : provides additional advantages Increase availability, continuity and reliability Improved geometry

Better results in harsh environement (urban canyons, tree canopy, etc.)

17

Agenda

Commercial Service (CS)

18

Commercial Service*:Key points

Advantages of Galileo CS signals

High Accuracy (CS-HA): receiver positioning accuracy with an error below one decimetre.

Key feature: broadcast external data in real time across the globe (PPP – Precise Point Positioning);

Triple frequency – faster convergence time

Authentication (CS-Auth): ability to provide a level of trust to users in that they are utilising signals and data from actual satellites and not from any other source (anti-spoofing).

• CS aims to provide service which go above and beyond that of the Open Service

• CS to offer added-value service that can be exploited via a revenue-sharing mechanism with private sector

• Based on GALILEO E6 CS signal & the encryption feature • Provides better navigation performances• Used in combination with the existing Galileo Open Service signals

• Ideal for professional market and for critical infrastructure (with higher robustness requirements)

* Extracts from the Galileo Regulation on CS ,,REGULATION (EU) No 1285/2013 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 11 December 2013 on the implementation and exploitation of European satellite navigation systems and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 876/2002 and Regulation (EC) No 683/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council’’

nor additional investment for ground infrastructure

• Enables affordable and simple solutions

• Wide coverage area around Europe

signal availability in harsh environment

• Cadastral and Construction related applications remain the leading actors of the sustained growth of GNSS shipments

• Property-related activities stimulated GNSS growth in shipments of GNSS devices

• UAV market is taking off

Technology trends in Galileo• Dual frequency and multi-constellation expected by Galileo and GPSIII (L1/L5 resp. E1/E5)
