Munich Summit 2017: Time for Backup?

7.4.2017 9:29   European GNSS Agency  
Gian-Gherardo Calini of GSA speaking at the Munich summit
Published: 
07 April 2017

The main theme of the 2017 Munich Satellite Navigation Summit was ‘GNSS – is it time for backup?’ The GSA was present to help provide answers to this question and update the global GNSS community on progress and future trends in its programmes, including discussion on possible requirements for a second generation of Galileo satellites.

Following the opening plenary session on 14 March, the main meat of the Munich Satellite Navigation Summit took place on 15 and 16 March and included dedicated sessions on the Galileo Search and Rescue (SAR) service and the Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS).

Free and available virtually anywhere, GNSS timing and location signals have been incorporated into virtually every current technology. This ubiquity and ease of use means that any significant disruption to GNSS services caused by natural events, accidents, equipment malfunctions or malicious acts will have a major impact on our society. So it was timely that the Summit discussed what the options were for backup.

Opening the session Dana Goward, President of the Resilient Navigation and Timing Foundation in Washington, said that “the last thing we want is a loss of confidence in a primary utility like GNSS” but he saw the idea of backup as more than an insurance policy but also “a system that would complement, augment and ensure a robust architecture.”

Why backup?

Prof. Per Høeg of the Danish National Space Institute described some of the natural “space weather” phenomena that can disrupt or degrade GNSS signals. He thought that cooperative wireless positioning receivers were one option for backup.

But space weather is not the only issue. The European Commission (EC) described its plans to draft a European Radio Navigation Plan that aims to develop a comprehensive picture of existing EU navigation and timing infrastructure to help EU Member States decide on future infrastructure strategies. The EC representative believed that “GNSS would remain the core technology but that other technologies would be identified that could help fill gaps and serve as backup in challenging environments.” He also highlighted that GNSS, as the reference system for positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) solutions, must have its radio spectrum protected.

The International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) is very keen to establish GNSS backup as reliance on GNSS increases and there is a decline in ‘traditional’ navigation skills. Francis Zachariae of IALA said any backup must provide “Availability, accuracy, continuity, and integrity. Integrity is the most important factor.”

Guy Buesnel, a PNT Security Technologist from Spirent Communications also highlighted the threat to GNSS with examples of interference from a range of application areas. Recently the Pokemon Go game had accelerated innovation in spoofing as gaming enthusiasts attempted to simulate locations to capture rare Pokemon!

Further examples of GNSS jamming and spoofing equipment were shown by Tony Flavin of Chronos Technology Ltd. He thought that the new multi-constellation environment helped, but as all GNSS effectively use the same signal spectrum jamming was a big problem and any backup must use a different part of the spectrum.

The threats for applications in the timing domain were outlined by John Fischer of Spectracom Orolia. He said that any alternative to GNSS “must be ubiquitous, reliable and dependable, accurate and traceable to coordinated universal time (UTC).”

Harold Martin of the National Coordination Office for Space-Based Positioning, Navigation, and Timing in Washington, DC, agreed that it was time for backup and remarked that what was required was “A machine-to-machine seamless transition; a system that is complementary.” In the US enabling a backup was a long standing policy and he noted that both Russia and China have ground-based backup systems.

Gian-Gherardo Calini, Head of Market Development at the GSA concluded the presentations, arguing that each GNSS market segment required a different situation and therefore there was a need to “assess the user needs in each segment and identify the most appropriate technology mix for each.”

“Everyone wants reliable PNT services,” he continued. “Both existing critical applications, such as aviation and marine timing, and emerging applications, such as rail, road and unmanned autonomous vehicles.” To achieve this requires robust protection of the GNSS frequency spectrum through both interference monitoring and enforcement of the law. “GNSS is becoming intrinsically more robust,” he said, due to multi-constellation interoperability, better and stronger signals, and authentication at the system level and improved antennas and signal processing at the equipment level.

However, Calini agreed that “GNSS cannot be the sole means of PNT solutions” for our critical applications. He emphasised the importance of awareness and training and said that “GNSS must be complemented by alternative means including but not limited to alternative radio navigation systems.”

Galileo: the next gen

On 15 March Prof. Vidal Ashkenazi of Nottingham Scientific Ltd led a debate on Galileo beyond 2020 that attempted to sketch out the requirements for a second generation E-GNSS. Setting the scene, Prof Ashkenazi said that “By 2020 users with multi frequency receivers would have 100 or more GNSS satellites at their disposal.”

Miguel Manteiga Bautista from ESA thought that the design and selection of technologies of the next generation would benefit enormously from the range of user profiles now available. “For the first generation only a handful of user profiles were used in the design,” he said. Ubiquitous location for all was the goal. Cost was also a big issue, he thought. “Already there were eight cost models available to guide the second generation,” he stated.

“It is really important to listen to users,” agreed Richard Balden of Qinetiq Group plc. He thought it was very important that the first generation of Galileo delivers its core mission fantastically well and that Generation two builds on that. “From a user perspective continuity is key,” he said.

“The next generation system must do the same cheaper or add more,” stated Dr. Kristian Pauly, of Galileo satellite manufacturers, OHB System AG. “Route one is save money wherever you can, route two is add more services.”

The European Commission speaker examined the potential user base including emerging new applications such as autonomous vehicles. He thought that the ongoing market analysis of the GSA is very useful “to help understand the whole span of applications.” He noted that the earliest that any second generation satellite might be launched was 2023 and that cost would be a very important factor.

John Hanley of CGI considered that any new system needed to be more flexible and able to react to the needs of programmes and markets.

The final view was given by Miguel Romay Merino from Spanish firm GMV. He thought it was important to make the system simple and easier to evolve. In particular he looked to simplify the ground segment. Key success factors for the user included centimetre-level accuracy combined with improved levels of integrity and authentication.

GNSS update

The summit’s main sessions had kicked off on the morning of 15 March with programme updates from all the worldwide global, regional and augmentation satellite navigation systems.

Paul Flament, from the European Commission had given the update on the status of Galileo and commenced by showing the audience his Galileo-enabled smartphone saying: “It is in my phone, it is working.” He emphasised that it was important for Europe to now reap the benefits of our investments in space systems saying “Galileo is there, use it!” He also underlined that the EU institutions would continue to support Galileo into the future.

Flament reported that Galileo Initial Services launched in December 2016 and were performing very well. He reminded the audience that Galileo was the first open service GNSS operating on multiple frequencies and looked forward to the promotion of the Galileo Search and Rescue (SAR) service in early April. Two off-orbit Galileo satellites were already contributing to the SAR signal and were likely to be included in the Open Service at some point due to their SAR performance.

The status of EGNOS was given by Jean-Marc Piéplu, GSA Head of EGNOS exploitation Department. He described the current configuration a new geostationary satellite coming into play and increased coverage through the system of 39 ranging and integrity monitoring stations (RIMS) sites. Further RIMS were being planned to extend coverage. Already some 327 EGNOS-enabled runway approach procedures had been published in Europe and a further 519 were planned by 2018. Looking to the future, he said that EGNOS V3 mission requirements had been established. The GEO-3 payload services contract had been signed with a launch date at the end of 2018 and he anticipated that system qualification would be achieved during 2022.

Summit participants also got updates on the American GPS, Chinese BeiDou, Japanese QZSS and Russian GLONASS programmes.

Hexagon Safety & Infrastructure and Frequentis Upgrade South Tyrol’s Command and Control Center

6.4.2017 9:30   Hexagon Safety & Infrastructure  

The South Tyrolean Civil Protection Agency has gone live with a system upgrade and expansion to its integrated command and control center. A Hexagon Safety & Infrastructure customer since 1999, the agency worked with Hexagon and Frequentis to upgrade and integrate its Frequentis 3020 LifeX communications platform with Hexagon’s Intergraph Computer-Aided Dispatch (I/CAD) system.

The upgrade and extension of the core system features state-of-the-art IP technology that supports, for example, existing capabilities for emergency calls and analog radio communication, while also exploiting the full potential of digital radio. A modern, intuitive user interface enables staff in the command and control center to operate all communication channels via a touch screen or through the integrated dispatching system. The voice recording takes place within Frequentis’ DIVOS 3 log solution. The bilingual user interface permits dispatchers to work in either German or Italian. The entire range of fully integrated software from Hexagon and Frequentis is implemented on a virtual platform to reduce hardware requirements and optimally support all business-related functions.

Commenting on the project’s success and the capabilities of the integrated system, Markus Rauch, project manager of the Regional Department of Fire and Civil Protection at the Civil Protection Agency, said, “The new solution’s innovative operation facilitates easier handling of emergency calls and radio communications, simplifying and enhancing coordination and cooperation between three organizations. Systems security and availability are particularly important to us, constituting the fundamental requirement for our day-to-day responsibilities in the safety-critical area.”

Located in the provincial capital, Bolzano, the command and control center supports the three departments of the Civil Protection Agency: Professional Fire Brigade of Bolzano, Traffic Information Center and Regional Emergency Call Center. The new solution equips the province’s emergency services with the tools needed to face future challenges. By following the TETRA standard using Frequentis’ Unified Radio Gateway, the solution will allow personnel to take full advantage of digital trunked radio following the launch of TETRA operations in the summer of 2017. In addition, the common European 112 emergency number is currently being adopted as a national standard throughout Italy. The systems are also flexible and extensible to adapt to operational changes within the command center.

Maximilian Weber, senior vice president for EMEA at Hexagon Safety & Infrastructure, states, “We are excited to have our long-standing customer, the Autonomous Province of South Tyrol, joining us in our endeavors to enhance and shape the future. Along with Frequentis, Hexagon’s state-of-the-art technologies are optimizing the command center’s communications and operational management – to the great benefit of the local citizens and millions of tourists in South Tyrol.”

The global leader in public safety and security, Hexagon Safety & Infrastructure helps protect 1 in 12 people worldwide. Hexagon’s public safety and security solutions improve the quality, accuracy and availability of critical information, increasing performance and productivity, while reducing the total cost of ownership for mission-critical IT investments.

<i>Going Digital</i>: Bentley Systems Advances Reality Modeling to Extend the Scope of Engineering and Surveying Value

5.4.2017 17:31   Bentley Systems  

Combination of New ContextCapture Services and ProjectWise ContextShare Comprehensively Deliver Fidelity, Accessibility, Scalability, and Shareability

Houston, TX – SPAR 3D Expo & Conference – Bentley Systems, Incorporated, a leading global provider of comprehensive software solutions for advancing infrastructure, demonstrated at SPAR 3D Expo & Conference (SPAR) new ContextCapture offerings for reality modeling that increase joint opportunities in surveying and engineering. ContextCapture capabilities now include cloud processing services, a mobile app, and photo planning for Bentley’s applications. ContextShare extends Bentley’s ProjectWise connected data environment to securely manage, share, and stream reality meshes, and their input sources, across project teams and applications. Navigator Web is a new web application that delivers high-performance streaming of very large reality meshes through the browser to desktop or mobile devices.

For infrastructure project delivery, reality modeling captures the actual context of infrastructure projects through photos and/or scans, creating engineering-ready reality meshes for design modeling, analytical modeling, and construction modeling. During asset performance, as-operated reality meshes can serve to immersively geo-coordinate the alignment of these digital engineering models with right-time inputs from connected IoT technologies. Accordingly, reality modeling extends the scope for engineers to add value to include “conceptioneering” and “constructioneering” for capital projects, and “inspectioneering” and “productioneering” for operating assets. These use-case benefits of “continuous surveying” in turn provide new value opportunities for surveyors throughout the infrastructure lifecycle.

Bureau Veritas, with 66,000 employees around the globe, is a world leader in testing, inspection, and certification of infrastructure assets. Thomas Daubigny, Bureau Veritas Chief Digital Officer, said, “Reality modeling is becoming pivotal in many industries as it fundamentally changes the management of assets, reinventing the handling of inspections, maintenance, and training, while opening doors to brand new services. Bureau Veritas is playing a key role in leveraging digital engineering models, implementing acquisition, and classifying objects based on its expertise on the asset, and ultimately operating the model as a data gatekeeper. The new Bentley ContextCapture cloud processing service will provide us the flexibility and power to accelerate the deployment of such innovations to our clients.”

CEO Greg Bentley said, “Last year at SPAR I described what I believed to be the significant potential of reality modeling for improved infrastructure engineering, in particular, from continuous surveying enabled by simple digital photography and UAVs, but that was then based only on our own experience. And there could have been resistance from survey professionals concerned that this more accessible technology might jeopardize their return on investments in laser scanning specialization, for example. It is gratifying to report now that in the intervening year, reality modeling has ‘gone mainstream’ globally, supporting projects and assets of every domain and scale in ‘going digital.’ Additionally, laser scanning is now fully incorporated—where available, and as needed to supplement photography—among hybrid inputs for engineering-ready reality meshes. 

“Our ContextCapture and ProjectWise ContextShare announcements today at SPAR complete the reach, in my view, for reality modeling’s fidelity, accessibility, scalability, and shareability. In the coming year, our priority at Bentley Systems is to help engineers and surveyors take full advantage of this breakthrough opportunity to broaden the scope and value of their work in ‘going digital’ themselves!”

Bentley’s reality modeling advancements comprehensively deliver to surveying and engineering teams:

Fidelity

Hybrid processing in ContextCapture enables the creation of engineering-ready reality meshes that incorporate the best of both worlds – the versatility and convenience of high-resolution photography, supplemented, where needed, by additional accuracy from laser scanning. The new photo planning capabilities in Bentley’s applications empower engineering or survey professionals to easily prescribe the optimal camera positions and flight paths for UAVs to achieve the required levels of accuracy, in particular, for critical inspection points.

Accessibility

The new ContextCapture mobile app brings reality capture to every member of a project delivery or asset management team. Combined with the new ContextCapture cloud processing service, this delivers 3D reality meshes back to the mobile device, and to office-based professionals, immediately after a set of photos have been taken. The new Navigator Web application makes immersive reality modeling accessible through any browser, with progressive levels of detail.

Scalability

ContextCapture uniquely enables reality modeling to scale from city models to site models to component nameplates. Users can now take advantage of cloud services’ inherent parallel computing to speed processing of reality meshes. Scalable mesh technology enables multi-resolution inputs through the new (.3sm) format.

Shareability

ProjectWise, the collaboration system of choice for the majority of the ENR Top Design Firms, delivers comprehensive work sharing supported by a connected data environment, unifying design and construction teams to enable comprehensive project delivery. ProjectWise CONNECT Edition is provisioned by Microsoft’s Azure cloud service, and supports hybrid environments. The new ProjectWise ContextShare service adds breakthrough performance in securely streaming reality meshes and their inputs, making it possible to instantly and persistently share full-scale engineering-ready datasets across a distributed team, whether in the field or in the office. Offered through a visa subscription, with charges only for actual use, ProjectWise ContextShare completes the reach of Bentley’s comprehensive reality modeling solution, empowering engineering and surveying professionals to extend the value of their services across all applications and throughout the infrastructure lifecycle.

Combination of New ContextCapture Services and ProjectWise ContextShare Comprehensively Deliver Fidelity, Accessibility, Scalability, and Shareability

Houston, TX – SPAR 3D Expo & Conference – Bentley Systems, Incorporated, a leading global provider of comprehensive software solutions for advancing infrastructure, demonstrated at SPAR 3D Expo & Conference (SPAR) new ContextCapture offerings for reality modeling that increase joint opportunities in surveying and engineering. ContextCapture capabilities now include cloud processing services, a mobile app, and photo planning for Bentley’s applications. ContextShare extends Bentley’s ProjectWise connected data environment to securely manage, share, and stream reality meshes, and their input sources, across project teams and applications. Navigator Web is a new web application that delivers high-performance streaming of very large reality meshes through the browser to desktop or mobile devices.

For infrastructure project delivery, reality modeling captures the actual context of infrastructure projects through photos and/or scans, creating engineering-ready reality meshes for design modeling, analytical modeling, and construction modeling. During asset performance, as-operated reality meshes can serve to immersively geo-coordinate the alignment of these digital engineering models with right-time inputs from connected IoT technologies. Accordingly, reality modeling extends the scope for engineers to add value to include “conceptioneering” and “constructioneering” for capital projects, and “inspectioneering” and “productioneering” for operating assets. These use-case benefits of “continuous surveying” in turn provide new value opportunities for surveyors throughout the infrastructure lifecycle.

Bureau Veritas, with 66,000 employees around the globe, is a world leader in testing, inspection, and certification of infrastructure assets. Thomas Daubigny, Bureau Veritas Chief Digital Officer, said, “Reality modeling is becoming pivotal in many industries as it fundamentally changes the management of assets, reinventing the handling of inspections, maintenance, and training, while opening doors to brand new services.

<i>Going Digital</i>: Bentley Systems Advances Reality Modeling to Extend the Scope of Engineering and Surveying Value

5.4.2017 17:31   Bentley Systems  

Combination of New ContextCapture Services and ProjectWise ContextShare Comprehensively Deliver Fidelity, Accessibility, Scalability, and Shareability

Houston, TX – SPAR 3D Expo & Conference – Bentley Systems, Incorporated, a leading global provider of comprehensive software solutions for advancing infrastructure, demonstrated at SPAR 3D Expo & Conference (SPAR) new ContextCapture offerings for reality modeling that increase joint opportunities in surveying and engineering. ContextCapture capabilities now include cloud processing services, a mobile app, and photo planning for Bentley’s applications. ContextShare extends Bentley’s ProjectWise connected data environment to securely manage, share, and stream reality meshes, and their input sources, across project teams and applications. Navigator Web is a new web application that delivers high-performance streaming of very large reality meshes through the browser to desktop or mobile devices.

For infrastructure project delivery, reality modeling captures the actual context of infrastructure projects through photos and/or scans, creating engineering-ready reality meshes for design modeling, analytical modeling, and construction modeling. During asset performance, as-operated reality meshes can serve to immersively geo-coordinate the alignment of these digital engineering models with right-time inputs from connected IoT technologies. Accordingly, reality modeling extends the scope for engineers to add value to include “conceptioneering” and “constructioneering” for capital projects, and “inspectioneering” and “productioneering” for operating assets. These use-case benefits of “continuous surveying” in turn provide new value opportunities for surveyors throughout the infrastructure lifecycle.

Bureau Veritas, with 66,000 employees around the globe, is a world leader in testing, inspection, and certification of infrastructure assets. Thomas Daubigny, Bureau Veritas Chief Digital Officer, said, “Reality modeling is becoming pivotal in many industries as it fundamentally changes the management of assets, reinventing the handling of inspections, maintenance, and training, while opening doors to brand new services. Bureau Veritas is playing a key role in leveraging digital engineering models, implementing acquisition, and classifying objects based on its expertise on the asset, and ultimately operating the model as a data gatekeeper. The new Bentley ContextCapture cloud processing service will provide us the flexibility and power to accelerate the deployment of such innovations to our clients.”

CEO Greg Bentley said, “Last year at SPAR I described what I believed to be the significant potential of reality modeling for improved infrastructure engineering, in particular, from continuous surveying enabled by simple digital photography and UAVs, but that was then based only on our own experience. And there could have been resistance from survey professionals concerned that this more accessible technology might jeopardize their return on investments in laser scanning specialization, for example. It is gratifying to report now that in the intervening year, reality modeling has ‘gone mainstream’ globally, supporting projects and assets of every domain and scale in ‘going digital.’ Additionally, laser scanning is now fully incorporated—where available, and as needed to supplement photography—among hybrid inputs for engineering-ready reality meshes. 

“Our ContextCapture and ProjectWise ContextShare announcements today at SPAR complete the reach, in my view, for reality modeling’s fidelity, accessibility, scalability, and shareability. In the coming year, our priority at Bentley Systems is to help engineers and surveyors take full advantage of this breakthrough opportunity to broaden the scope and value of their work in ‘going digital’ themselves!”

Bentley’s reality modeling advancements comprehensively deliver to surveying and engineering teams:

Fidelity

Hybrid processing in ContextCapture enables the creation of engineering-ready reality meshes that incorporate the best of both worlds – the versatility and convenience of high-resolution photography, supplemented, where needed, by additional accuracy from laser scanning. The new photo planning capabilities in Bentley’s applications empower engineering or survey professionals to easily prescribe the optimal camera positions and flight paths for UAVs to achieve the required levels of accuracy, in particular, for critical inspection points.

Accessibility

The new ContextCapture mobile app brings reality capture to every member of a project delivery or asset management team. Combined with the new ContextCapture cloud processing service, this delivers 3D reality meshes back to the mobile device, and to office-based professionals, immediately after a set of photos have been taken. The new Navigator Web application makes immersive reality modeling accessible through any browser, with progressive levels of detail.

Scalability

ContextCapture uniquely enables reality modeling to scale from city models to site models to component nameplates. Users can now take advantage of cloud services’ inherent parallel computing to speed processing of reality meshes. Scalable mesh technology enables multi-resolution inputs through the new (.3sm) format.

Shareability

ProjectWise, the collaboration system of choice for the majority of the ENR Top Design Firms, delivers comprehensive work sharing supported by a connected data environment, unifying design and construction teams to enable comprehensive project delivery. ProjectWise CONNECT Edition is provisioned by Microsoft’s Azure cloud service, and supports hybrid environments. The new ProjectWise ContextShare service adds breakthrough performance in securely streaming reality meshes and their inputs, making it possible to instantly and persistently share full-scale engineering-ready datasets across a distributed team, whether in the field or in the office. Offered through a visa subscription, with charges only for actual use, ProjectWise ContextShare completes the reach of Bentley’s comprehensive reality modeling solution, empowering engineering and surveying professionals to extend the value of their services across all applications and throughout the infrastructure lifecycle.

Happy Beacon Awareness Day!

The Galileo SAR service reduces the time to detect a person in distress from three hours to just 10 minutes.
Published: 
05 April 2017

On 6 April, the GNSS world marks Beacon Awareness Day (406 Day), a day intended to remind Search and Rescue 406MHz beacon owners to test their beacons, check their batteries and update their Cospas-Sarsat or National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) registration. Started in 2013 by US beacon manufacturer ACR Electronics, the day is also an opportunity to raise awareness on the benefits and responsibilities of owning such 406 MHz beacons as Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs) and Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs). Perhaps most importantly, 406 Day is a chance to share the stories of those whose lives were ‘saved by the beacon’ and to encourage others to #getabeacon.  

Register your beacon: register your beacon with the COSPAS-SARSAT database

In conjunction with 406 Day, the GSA is officially launching its Galileo sSAR service. The Galileo SAR service is Europe’s contribution to the upgrade of the international satellite-based COSPAS-SARSAT system. Within the Galileo/SAR service coverage area, the service will be available at sea, in the mountains, across the desert and in the air and available to help SAR operators respond to a distress signal faster and more efficiently.

Did you know?

  • Six kilos – the weight of the SAR transponder on a Galileo satellite – can make the difference between life and death
  • Over the past three years, satellites helped save an average of six lives every day
  • Galileo satellites relay ANY distress call coming from a SARSAT-enabled beacon without costs or need for a subscription

Helping to save lives

The Galileo SAR service is comprised of two components: an automatic forward link distress alert and a unique return link alert (available end of 2018) that informs the sender that their message has been received. This combination, along with the increased positioning accuracy provided by Galileo, has reduced the time it takes to detect a person lost at sea or in the mountains from three hours to just 10 minutes after the distress beacon is activated. Furthermore, the localisation of the distress beacon has improved from 10 km to less than 5 km.

The net result of the improvements offered by the Galileo SAR service is that more lives are saved. In fact, in January 2017, the Galileo SAR service helped rescue eight people within the French MCC zone alone. “Not only does the improved capacity offered by the Galileo SAR service help save lives, thanks to the reduced time to acquire a signal, it also makes Search and Rescue operations – more efficient for emergency responders,” says GSA Executive Director Carlo des Dorides. “Thus, it is our pleasure to take part in the 406 Day initiatives to raise awareness of the Galileo SAR service and to help all operators support and promote the use of 406 MHz beacons.”

Call for proposals

The GSA, in close collaboration with the European Commission recently launched a call for proposals to develop 406 MHz beacons with the return link capability. The deadline for this call is 31 May.

Galileo Public Regulated Service ready for action

4.4.2017 10:20   European GNSS Agency  
Published: 
04 April 2017

The unique Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS) offers a dedicated authenticated and encrypted service for governmental authorised users in areas such as public safety and security, critical infrastructures, and defence. The PRS session at the Munich Satellite Navigation Summit on 16 March provided an overview on the current status of PRS implementation in Europe and a glimpse of its potential applications.

“Integrity is a major driver for backup systems for GNSS,” said Dr. Stefan Baumann of IABG and moderator of the PRS session. He noted that the capabilities of PRS brought authorised users a more reliable and robust positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) system.

The European Commission’s DG GROW reminded the audience that PRS was part of the Galileo Initial Services declared on 15 December 2016. The main task now is to make the transition to exploitation. PRS offers increased continuity of service in crisis situations and its signal structure is much more resistant to interference than the Galileo open service signals.

The European Commission is looking forward to the full deployment of the Galileo constellation by 2020, working in concert with the ground elements of the system such as the Galileo Security Monitoring Centre (GSMC) near Paris and the Competent PRS authorities (CPAs) that must be established in Member States in order to access and control the use of PRS within their borders.

To follow the publication of the EU’s Space Strategy in 2016, it is likely that the range of security-related space applications will increase in the future and there could be increased demand for the more secure and robust PNT service offered by PRS.

Half of European Member States have already established CPAs, and other third countries outside the EU have expressed interest in accessing the system.

Fully functional

Charles Villie is PRS Manager at the GSA in Prague. He described PRS as “an encrypted navigation service designed to be more resistant to jamming, involuntary interference and spoofing… offering continuity of service, including higher availability of the signal in space and providing an independent authenticated position, velocity and timing service.”

“Today all PRS functionalities are available,” he continued. “The whole infrastructure is functional and operational. Now authorised governments can test their procedures for real and users can check PRS functionalities themselves.”

He admitted that to boost user acceptance would require the demonstration of excellent performance with a robust and secure service that offers unlimited uninterrupted access, adding that test activities are planned in 2017.

Villie also gave an overview of the development of PRS receivers. Receiver concepts had been developed and validated via PRS pilot projects under the Horizon 2020 programme.

User viewpoints

The PRS session concluded with the views of three representatives of Member State CPAs. Lukas Schmid spoke for the German CPA and saw many applications for PRS with police and security services. He thought that server-based solutions for Galileo PRS providing authenticated positioning, tracking and timing information, and available as of today, would significantly simplify challenges such as the tracking of tagged terrorist suspects.

Schmid also described the Hali Berlin project that synchronised green traffic lights for emergency vehicles. Using PRS helped to secure the application and greatly reduced the time for emergency vehicles to get to incidents while also reducing the number of accidents involving emergency vehicles.

The German government sponsored a special prize for PRS applications as part of the European Satellite Navigation Competition. Schmid said that he looked forward to joint test activity with Belgium and other Member States and further miniaturisation and simplification of PRS receiver technology.

The head of the French CPA is Colonel (Armament Corps) Philippe Bertrand. The CPA established within SGDSN was part of an organisation that will ensure the interoperability of Galileo PRS with military GPS for the French Ministry of Defence (MoD). This reduces costs and risks by using people who are already familiar with GNSS technologies.

During 2016, Colonel Bertrand’s CPA unit had been deeply involved with the French MoD and the French Space Agency (CNES) in validation of PRS, including monitoring and security tests. “It is very clear that PRS’s navigation performance is really good,” he stated. Tests in operational environments are now being performed regularly with the GSMC.

“It is key that the programme gains full operational capability by 2020 and provides a very high level of security,” he concluded. “If these expectations are met then the PRS user communities will come.”

This was echoed by the final speaker Massimo Mercati, an advisor to the Italian CPA. He felt that the Member States would be key players in PRS and believed that full FOC would be achieved in 2020.

During a final Q&A in the session, the relative accuracy of PRS was discussed. Colonel Bertrand reiterated his results on PRS navigation performance in a set of different operational environments saying that: “the navigation performance was very good and very interesting.” He believed that navigation performance would be a key and important feature of PRS.
