Join the European GNSS Agency at ION GNSS+ – the world’s largest technical meeting and showcase of GNSS technology, products and services – to discover what’s next in smartphone innovation and mass market GNSS chipsets and the contribution of Galileo.
Once thought to be only applicable to professional GNSS applications, soon Galileo and GPS will bring E5/L5 capacity that, used in combination with E1/L1, may become the next opportunity for innovative mass market applications. Thanks to research into the potential applicability to mass market chipsets conducted by the GSA, along with testing carried out by Broadcom, E5/L5 capability has the potential to become the second frequency for mass market use.
However, this development also raises a number of questions:
During a special session on Galileo and LBS, held in conjunction with ION GNSS+, experts from the GSA and Broadcom will provide insight into these questions and more. With Galileo Initial Services set to launch in the coming months, speakers will provide a general overview of the programme and the role it will play in Location Based Services (LBS), along with specifically addressing the advantages that E5/L5 capability offers chipsets and receivers. Experts will also explore what further actions are needed to ensure an effective implantation into the mass market.
‘With E5/L5 capability added to the E1/L1, chipsets and receivers will benefit from better accuracy, ionosphere error cancellation, improved code tracking pseudorange estimate and faster transition from code tracking to phase tracking, among others’, says GSA Market Development Officer, Reinhard Blasi, who will be speaking at the session.
‘The strength of the Galileo signal, together with an advanced code modulations, makes Galileo better at mitigating multipath effects – especially in E5. The combination of the two frequencies E1/L1 and E5/L5 significantly contributes to reducing errors in urban environments. This feature has already attracted the attention of the automotive sector and is now beginning to interest makers of consumer devices, such as the smartphones’, adds GSA Deputy Head of Market Development, Fiammetta Diani.
Galileo Becoming a Standard FeatureAccording to a recent GSA study, nearly 60% of all available receivers, chipset and modules support a minimum of two constellations. Of these, nearly 40% are Galileo compatible – a figure that is increasing every day. Furthermore, knowing that the top three providers of smartphone chips are on track to be Galileo compatible by the time Initial Services are declared later this year, the actual market share is likely to be much higher than the suggested 40%. All of this clearly shows that a multi-constellation capability that includes Galileo is becoming a standard feature across all market segments. |
The session is scheduled for Thursday, 15 September from 16:00 – 16:45 in Room C124 of the Portland Convention Center. ION GNSS+, the world’s largest technical meeting and showcase of GNSS technology, products and services, runs from 12 – 16 September in Portland, Oregon (USA).

Bentley Systems announces the general availability of the CONNECT Edition of ConstructSim, an Advanced Work Packaging solution enabling safer, more predictable construction projects, reducing risks in the capital projects process. The CONNECT Edition release supports a construction-driven execution for project planning and aligns engineering and procurement with Path of Construction by providing visibility into the quality and timing of deliverables.
This release comes with a new business model enabling users to adopt this solution for use on projects of all sizes. ConstructSim CONNECT Edition is now offered as a consumption-based subscription making it more cost-effective. Organizations can better control their software budget by setting a subscription level that matches anticipated usage and are billed only when they use the product.
On every project, the Path of Construction is an iterative process where engineering work packages (EWPs) and procurement deliverables are related to the construction work packages (CWPs) scope and release requirements. CWPs are defined and sequenced based on the commissioning and startup strategy. ConstructSim CONNECT Edition enhances support of Advanced Work Packaging with these key new capabilities:
Bentley’s ConstructSim CONNECT Edition promotes the Advanced Work Packaging best practice and provides insight into potential schedule deviations by managing work package development, master lists of deliverables, resource constraints, and quality and error reporting. It provides 4D/5D functionality for engineering content management, status visualizations, schedule simulations, and key performance indicators and project predictive indicators.
KPIs and predictive indicators support IPA standards for their Construction Readiness Assessment product and Excellence Through Measurement® methodology. The IPA-Bentley collaboration is intended to mitigate alignment issues between engineering, procurement, and construction, and provide an analytics and benchmarking platform to improve visibility and successful outcomes.
Geoff Ryan, P.M.P., Insight-wfp, said, “The positive returns from ConstructSim started early in a project when we needed to track trends in material quantities and planned value during engineering. The software makes searching the meta data simple and intuitive. The news is not always good but of course bad news early is good news. The project folks embraced this new level of understanding, and we applied it on many fronts throughout the project. We certainly owe a big portion of our success and enhanced reputation to ConstructSim, and we are looking forward to applying it on future projects.”
Adam Klatzkin, senior director of software development, Bentley Systems, said, “ConstructSim CONNECT Edition enables Bentley’s users to monitor and better align their engineering deliverables, resources, materials, documentation, and schedules to improve engineering accuracy and constructability. Visibility into the flow of engineering and procurement information throughout construction using a virtual construction model gives our users more control over project execution and owners more control over capital effectiveness.”
About ConstructSim
ConstructSim CONNECT Edition is for owners and their supply chain, EPCs, and fabricators who construct and maintain industrial facilities. These organizations are able to integrate project design, fabrication, construction, schedule, and resource data to visually plan and safely execute work. ConstructSim CONNECT Edition aligns engineering, construction, and commissioning for safer, repeatable projects. Bentley offers a comprehensive solution combining technology, implementation, and training to help user organizations realize the extraordinary benefits of the Construction Industry Institute’s Advanced Work Packaging best practice methodology.

The project folks embraced this new level of understanding, and we applied it on many fronts throughout the project. We certainly owe a big portion of our success and enhanced reputation to ConstructSim, and we are looking forward to applying it on future projects.”
Adam Klatzkin, senior director of software development, Bentley Systems, said, “ConstructSim CONNECT Edition enables Bentley’s users to monitor and better align their engineering deliverables, resources, materials, documentation, and schedules to improve engineering accuracy and constructability. Visibility into the flow of engineering and procurement information throughout construction using a virtual construction model gives our users more control over project execution and owners more control over capital effectiveness.”

The European GNSS Agency (GSA) set to launch the third call for Horizon 2020 proposals with a dedicated information day in Prague together with the European Commission and COSMOS2020.
To introduce the third call for Horizon 2020 proposals, on October 4 – 5, the European GNSS Agency (GSA) is hosting a special H2020 Information Day in Prague. The event, which will be held in the City Hall of Prague, is a unique opportunity to learn more about the proposal and selection process, along with hearing first-hand success stories from current H2020 Research projects.
With a budget of nearly EUR 80 billion, Horizon 2020 is the EU’s most ambitious research and innovation programme ever. As a result of this investment, it promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by helping usher great ideas into the lab and onto the market. This third call for proposals encourages the latest wave of entrepreneurs to step forward and learn more about how to turn their GNSS-related business ideas into reality.
The first day of the event will focus on the Horizon 2020 programme in general, including rules of participation and lessons learned. In addition, representatives of the GSA will join other EU officials to provide updates on the Galileo, EGNOS and Copernicus programmes. On the second day, the focus will shift towards the benefits of participating in Horizon 2020, as told by currently funded projects.
In a session entitled The Added Value of Galileo and GNSS Funding Opportunities, participants will learn more about the Galileo Initial Services, its synergies with Copernicus, and how it will benefit such mass market applications as Smart Cities and Social LBS. During the Fostering Entrepreneurship in Space and its Applications session, the focus will be on European Business Incubation Centres, Horizon 2020 financial instruments, SME instruments and the European Trade Association for Business Angels.
The event will also include a unique brokerage session where participants can meet one-on-one with session speakers.
