For autonomous transport to become a reality, its operations must be at least as safe as existing ones. The European Commission’s Directorate-General for Defence Industry and Space (DG-DEFIS) has awarded mission evolution studies to assess how the future evolution of European GNSS (EGNSS) could be beneficial for innovative and demanding autonomous applications.

A new approach to achieving the safety needed for levels 3 and higher of autonomy builds on a thorough mathematical framework to support safety analysis, while delivering very tight position bounds.
On Memorial Day, just prior to the running of the legendary Indy 500 race, a new speedway star came out to shine. A driverless racecar, no less, aiming for track speeds above 120 mph with no human hands on the wheel.

A novel method to track Galileo E5 AltBOC signal phase adjusts and then combines the correlation results of the upper sideband and lower sideband signal to form a double-sideband correlation result, which is equivalent to AltBOC wideband receiving to some extent. Thus, a Galileo E5 wideband receiver can be achieved with only minor modification to a traditional GNSS single-sideband receiver. The method can be further applied to other binary offset carrier (BOC) signals.

The Government Accounting Office (GAO) has issued a 51-page report examining the challenges the Department of Defense faces in developing and fielding new positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) technologies to complement, augment or replace GPS when it is unavailable. It found that the DOD is not doing enough in this regard.
