GENIUS Workshop: GNSS Integrity Monitoring

GENIUS Workshop: GNSS Integrity Monitoring

A free three-day program on "GNSS Integrity Monitoring" will take place at Ecole Nationale de l’Aviation Civile (ENAC) at 7, Ave. Edouard Belin in Toulouse on June 18, 19 and 20, 2013.

This is third course in the EU’s GENIUS project series of 3-day GNSS training programs for professionals. Five are scheduled in 2013 and five in 2014.

The instructors are Dr. Christophe Macabiu, head of ENAC’s Telecom lab, Dr. Anaïs Martineau, head of the Electronics, Electromagnetism and Signal division of ENAC and Prof. Carl Milner, also of ENAC Telecom lab.

Receiver standards? January 22 webinar discusses why, what and how

Do we need performance specs for GNSS user equipment design? For a long time, the signal-in-space interface guidelines provided enough technical guidance. But times have changed.

Over the past two years, the effort by LightSquared to persuade the FCC to allow it to operate high-powered terrestrial transmitters in frequencies adjacent to GPS focused attention on potential vulnerabilities of GNSS user equipment.

Civil Galileo System Poses New Options for Secure Services

Civil Galileo System Poses New Options for Secure Services

When European leaders first took up the idea of creating their own GNSS system nearly 20 years ago, they held up the concept of civilian control as a crucial differentiator from existing services operated by national military establishments.

As Galileo nears its operational phase, that principle may manifest itself in a surprising form: the opportunity to offer a range of security-oriented positioning and timing solutions in place of the all-or-nothing alternatives on encrypted services maintained by defense agencies.

Meet the New European GNSS Agency: Much the Same, Only Different

Meet the New European GNSS Agency: Much the Same, Only Different

Coming nearly full circle and yet ending up in a new place with a new name describes the peculiar fortunes of the European GNSS Agency, an unlikely fate perhaps reflected most clearly in its continued use of its predecessor’s acronym, GSA.

Five years ago when Europe’s GNSS program abandoned its seemingly misconceived and now roundly condemned effort to forge a public-private partnership (PPP) to develop Galileo, the original GSA — the Galileo Supervisory Authority — appeared orphaned, bereft of purpose and patrons.

London Conference Beats Drum for Galileo Acceptance

The third Galileo in-orbit validation (IOV) satellite, also known as Flight Model 3 (FM), began transmitting signals last week, and the FM4 spacecraft, like the FM3 launched on October 12, is expected to come on-line soon — providing the theoretical capability of 3D positioning using solely satellites of Europe’s GNSS system.

Longer Show Hours, Fewer Days for ION GNSS 2013 Exhibitors

Longer Show Hours, Fewer Days for ION GNSS 2013 Exhibitors

Companies who exhibit at the Institute of Navigation GNSS conference next September will have longer exhibit hall hours to work the floor – but fewer days to do so – at the 2013 event in Nashville, Tennessee.

Based on feedback from exhibitors, ION will eliminate the Friday hours for the industry show and increase the Wednesday and Thursday hours next year.
