5. Page 5 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 GPS Receivers Reminder: different characteristics Globally, it exists three kind of GPS receiver architecture:  Parallel  Serial  Multiplex However, the differences between the existing ones consist generally in:  Number of correlators (up to 200000)  Number of C/A Channels (up to 20)  Dual or single frequency (depending on application)  Navigation filter (software)  Consumption

6. Page 6 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 EGNOS Receivers principles  An EGNOS receiver is based on a classical GPS receiver and contains additional processing to track and monitor the EGNOS Geostationary satellites and decode the information broadcast on them (software additional functions)  EGNOS signal is in certification process for Civil Aviation and Safety critical purposes

7. Page 7 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 EGNOS RECEIVERS: State of the art  Most of the GPS chipsets on the market are now compatible with WAAS / EGNOS signals  GEO Ranging (R-GEO): Transmission of GPS-like signals from three GEO satellites (Inmarsat-3 AOR-E, Inmarsat-3 IOR, and ESA’s Artemis satellite), augments the number of navigation satellites available to users.  GNSS Integrity Channel (GIC): Broadcasting of integrity information will increase the availability of the GPS/GLONASS/EGNOS safe- navigation service to the level required for civil-aviation non- precision.  Wide-Area Differential (WAD): Broadcasting of differential corrections will increase the GPS/GLONASS/EGNOS navigation service performance - mainly its accuracy - to the level required for precision approaches down to CAT-I landings.  Sysnet compatible receivers (internet data link)

10. Page 10 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 Galileo RECEIVERS: Main differences with GPS receivers  Galileo has more carriers than GPS, larger bandwidth and new signal structures (codes, multiplexing and modulation)  Higher number of signals: increase of hardware complexity and processor load new  Different modulation and multiplexing schemes  Signal Acquisition: Codes ~10x longer / Codes higher rate (BW)  Signal Tracking: Bump jumping / Pilot (improved sensitivity)  SW / HW Boundary: large number of channels /  Higher data rates / Viterbi decoding /Deinterleaver, leads to very high burst CPU load, complicates SW, multi-processor systems and/or dedicated HW required  The power of Galileo signals will be greater by a factor of 2, which will result in the reduction of tracking noise for both phase and code ranges. But the indoor positionning will still require very weak signals processing  Each Galileo signal includes a so-called “pilot”, data-less component, which can be easily acquired independently, without the decoding of data bits. Fatser acquisition in case of the loss-of-lock.  The novel modulation schemes will result in significant reduction of both tracking and multipath noise for all the code ranges.  A more robust 3-step coding scheme for navigation bits will be used (Viterbiencoding, CRC check, bit interleaving). This will significantly increase the reliability of navigation message decoding in the presence of interference or with low signal power.

14. Page 14 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 OS Signal case  Mono or Dual Frequency (Mass Market)  Three frequency allowed (E5a&b, L1)  Interoperability with GPS (L1- E5a/L5)  Receiver requirements: –Low cost –Interoperability with GPS –Light indoor capacity (due to signal strength )

15. Page 15 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 SoL Service case  No encryption  Higher accuracy  Dual or Tri frequency (security applications)  Integrity (difference with OS Signal)  Receiver specificity: –Integrity processing –Redundancy in terms of frequency channels (E5)

16. Page 16 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 CS Service Case  Charged service  Data encryption & integrity  Possible interoperability with GPS  Dual, or Tri frequency receivers  Receiver requirements: –Encryption functions (E6) –Additional data processing (commercial data, in E6) –Possible integrity processing

18. Page 18 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 SAR service case  Using E5a/b, L1 signals plus Uplink channel (SAR Beacon)  Added value: –Faster emergency signal process (compared with COSPAS- SARTSAT existing solution) –Acknowledge sent to the user  Receivers Requirement: –the terminal has to be equipped with one Galileo receiver and one SAR beacon. –ACK sent to the user on E5a/b, L1 signal

Page 23 METIS First Master Training & Seminar, Ifrane (Morocco), 15-16.03.2007 Conclusion  Up to now, only one operational test receiver, used for GIOVA / GIOVB signal tests  Numerous receivers manufacturers have initiated Galileo receivers development, but no communication on it until the Galileo system entering into service phase  Receivers Standards in process of definition  Seamless transition from GPS to GPS + GALILEO for the users / application developers for OS services (mass market)  Other applications (applying quality of services and/or integrity): EGNOS is already available. The emergence of Galileo will reinforce the performances (GPS + Galileo) and allow signal warranty services (Galileo /Egnos)
