Galileo is the European GNSS offering a wide range of services • Freely accessible service for positioning, timing and navigation message authentication (OS- Open Service (OS) NMA) and OS-NMA • Encrypted service designed for greater robustness and higher availability Public Regulated Service (PRS) • Assists locating people in distress and confirms that help is on the way Search and Rescue • Freely accessible high accuracy positioning service Service (SAR) High Accuracy Service (HAS)
Galileo is providing Search & Rescue Initial Service contributing to saving 5 lives per day RLS FLS 3
Galileo Search and Rescue services Forward Link Service (2016): § Near real-time reception of distress messages § To the Rescue Coordination Centre within 10 minutes (99%) § Augmented coverage § The more satellites and MEOLUTs the more coverage § Beacons with no GNSS position (non-LP): § 3 satellites with SAR repeater are needed § Beacons with GNSS position (LP): § 1 satellite with SAR repeater is needed § Precise location of alerts § Non-LP beacons: 5 km (95%) in 10 minutes § LP beacons: Limitation to 123x123m Return Link Service (end of 2019): § Acknowledgement receipt message to the distress beacon within 15 minutes (99%) § It enables the possibility of detecting false alarms 4 § Benefits: It reduces stress in people affected
SAR Beacon Types • EPIRB (Maritime): A 406-MHz beacon designed for use aboard a marine vessel is called an Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon. • ELT (Aviation): A beacon designed for use in an aircraft is known as an Emergency Locator Transmitter. • PLB (Personal): A beacon designed to be carried by an individual is known as a Personal Locator Beacon. Note: Sometimes PLBs are carried aboard aircraft or vessels, but you must check with local authorities about the circumstances under which this is permitted. 5
Ongoing work on small beacons with Return Link and restricted sky visibility SAT406M SINSIN Enhanced PLB, EGNSS receiver, and MEOLUT An EGNSS application providing an end-to-end using single burst/single satellite EIB technology solution based on the SAR/Galileo service and using RLM Start Date: February 2015 Start Date: November 2017 End Date: January 2018 End Date: October 2020 Budget: 1.4 Mln € Budget: 1.9 Mln € EU Contribution: 1 Mln € EU Contribution: 1.3 Mln € Enhanced Personal Locator Beacon (PLB), RLS wrist-worn PLB prototype embedded EGNSS receiver, and MEOLUT • Technology to transmit up to 10 • Innovative technologies to improve the Extra bits of information (EIB) on-land activated beacons with restricted • MEOLUT new generation capable sky visibility to track 30 satellites • The beacon can be wear in the wrist or in a helmet 9
Future Early Warning Service under consideration Early Warning Service to inform people of disasters 1 Galileo EWS could be used to help public 2 This service may be also supported by authorities to inform people about large the information provided by Copernicus scale disasters such as floods, forest fires, which could be sent to the ground earthquakes, volcanic eruptions or man- infrastructure in order to uplink the made accidents message to be broadcasted via E1B message 3 Any Galileo ready receiver capable to track E1B can access this message. It is a matter of a firmware update to use it. 4 In the case of LBS devices, specific software has to be developed 10
The dual-frequency smartphones are reality • Xiaomi`s world’s first dual-frequency GNSS smartphone Mi8 • Fitted with a Broadcom BCM47755 chip • launched on May 31 2018 • the world’s first smartphone providing below meter accuracy for location-based services • Raw measurements can help to provide even higher accuracy • Use L1/E1 and L5/E5 frequencies 11
New Call: EGNSS market uptake 2020 H2020-SPACE-EGNSS-2020 Type of Indicative Topic budget Funding rate Action (EUR mln) EGNSS applications fostering IA 10 green, safe and smart mobility 70% EGNSS applications fostering (except for non-profit IA 4 digitisation legal entities, where EGNSS applications fostering a rate of 100% applies) IA societal resilience and protecting 4 the environment EGNSS applications for public PCP 3 90% authorities’ pilot Opening: 05 November 2019 Overall ind. budget: 21 mln EUR Deadline: 05 March 2020 IA: activities aimed at producing plans and arrangements or designs for new, altered or improved products, processes or services PCP: Pre-Commercial Procurement actions aim to encourage public procurement of research, development and validation of new solutions that can bring significant quality and efficiency improvements in areas of public interest, whilst opening market opportunities for industry and researchers active in Europe. It provides EU funding for a group of procurers (‘buyers group’) to undertake together one joint PCP procurement, so that there is one joint call for tender, one joint evaluation of offers, and a lead procurer3 awarding the R&D service contracts in the name and on behalf of the buyers group. 12
SU-SPACE-EGNSS-3-2020 EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment Scope: Proposals may address social and professional applications to support societal resilience, wellbeing of EU citizens, emergency and disaster management Social and Professional • Professional application should leverage Galileo and EGNOS applications differentiators in order to reduce the price and increase the effectiveness of the solution (Authentication – Search and Rescue – Emergency and High Accuracy) disaster • Synergies with Copernicus management • Proposals addressing Galileo SAR service should leverage the Forward Search and and Return Link Services to improve the users’ safety Rescue • Emergency and disaster management applications should target integration of different sensors and position sources to identify, Surveying and locate and react in critical situations mapping • Applications in agriculture should improve the productivity and Efficient decrease the negative environmental impact Agriculture Project Indicative funding: 1 to 3 MEur Timing & Total funding 4 MEur Synchronisation Innovation Action 13
H2020 Projects Example • Enable a high availability and integrity team positioning and tracking system based on GNSS, EGNOS and fusion of IMU & RF-ranging, able to work inside buildings and rural areas. • Develop a tracking and alerting application protocols for fire services to improve responder safety • Reduce the impact of fires on health, environment and economy by enabling improved fire suppression operations. *IMU - Inertial Measurement Units; RF - Radio Frequency
What is Pre-Commercial Procurement? • PCP to steer the development of solutions towards concrete public sector needs, whilst comparing/validating alternative solution approaches from various vendors ❖ PCP Actions (maximum 90% funding rate): ▪Provide EU co-financing for an actual PCP procurement (one joint PCP procurement per PCP action) + for related coordination and networking activities (e.g. to prepare, manage and follow-up the PCP procurement) ❖ Examples of applications: ▪Helicopter emergency medical services, crisis management; SAR
