5 Services Open Access - This will be 'free to air' and for use by the mass market; Simple timing and positioning down to 1m Commercial - Encrypted; High accuracy at the cm scale; Guaranteed service for which service providers will charge fees Safety of Life - Open service; For applications where guaranteed accuracy is essential; Integrity messages warn of errors Public Regulated - Encrypted; Continuous availability even in time of crisis; Government agencies will be main users Search and Rescue - System will pick up distress beacon locations; Feasible to send feedback, confirming help is on its way Source: BBC News 28 Dec 2005
7
Compatibility Intend to integrate Galileo into existing technology of business and commerce Will meet standardization and certification requirements of ICAO, IMO, EUROCAE, and RTCA Also, meets technological specifications for cell phones (3GPP)
8
Local Services To provide services in difficult environments, esp. indoors Differential Reference Station Pseudolites Local Integrity Monitors
9
Authentication RSA Encryption Only present in “certified” receivers, not simple ones Cuts down on “spoofing” by eliminating counterfeit Galileo signals
10
Transportation - Roads Traffic monitoring Fleet management Maneuvering Aid? Best Route Tolls assesment
11
Rail Locate passengers, freight, trains Reduce distance between trains, therefore increase traffic Passenger Information
12
Air Coordinate planes in flight, increase total planes in air Coordinate taxing of planes at airport Automatic landing Monitoring/surveillance where Radar does not exist Passenger Information
13
Telecommunications Location of cell phones LBS: Location Based Services Location Billing Universal time reference
14
Finance/Insurance Track insured goods Secure time-stamping of legal documents, corporate documents, etc…
15
Miscellaneous Traffic analysis Construction site management Infrastructure monitoring
