ESAVS2013: Enhanced Solutions for Aircraft and Vehicle Surveillance Applications

The third symposium on Enhanced Solutions for Aircraft and Vehicle Surveillance Applications will take place at the MARITIM proArte Hotel in Berlin, germany on March 20 and 21, 2013. The event will be held in English. It  is organized by the German Institute of Navigation (DGON).

This emerging field of next-generation surveillance is driven by increasing air traffic volume, business demands for increased capacity and efficiency and citizen and government concerns about emissions and other environmental pressures.

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.

Setting the stage for action in the next Congress, a Senate committee approved privacy legislation last Thursday (December 13, 2012) that would, with some exceptions, require companies using geolocation data for apps and navigation services to get express permission from users before collecting or sharing that information.

The bill not only applies to the apps now commonly found on smart phone and tablets but also specifically to “geolocation information services” and devices that are in or “part of a vehicle.”

Longer Show Hours, Fewer Days for ION GNSS 2013 Exhibitors

ION GNSS 2012

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.

House Panel Suggests Harm Threshold Rather Than Receiver Standards

Members of a key technical advisory group told members of Congress this week that a more creative use of interference limits was preferable to setting receiver standards as the way to expand the use of scarce spectrum.

Although the committee focus was on communication devices in general, the issue of GPS receivers and the recent controversy involving LightSquared’s proposed ground-based wireless broadband service.
