Galileo Initial Services: paving the way for the GNSS of the future M. Lisi

ESA/GSA

IGAW 2017 (International GNSS Advances Workshop) SOGEI, Rome , June 20, 2017

15 December 2016: Initial Services Declaration

WHAT ARE THE INITIAL SERVICES?

• An official commitment undertaken by European Commission, GSA and ESA, to manage the “Galileo enterprise” in order to ensure maximum availability and added value for users.

• Drastic and noticeable change of perspective: In the earlier phase, focus on technological,

technical and implementation aspects; in the present phase, emphasis and priorities

are given to services and users satisfaction, increasing attention to operational, logistic and organizational aspects.

Ultimate Service Objective: User Satisfaction

PROJECT VS. SERVICE PRIORITIES

WHAT IS THE VALUE OF A COMMITMENT?

The new phase of the Galileo program, associated with the provision of guaranteed services and a series of operational and organizational changes has an essentially political significance: for the first time, the European Commission officially takes its responsibility in the face of European and global users for positioning, navigation and timing services provided by the albeit partially completed constellation of Galileo satellites.

Galileo Exploitation Phase

European GNSS Agency (GSA) to progressively manage exploitation activities delegated by European Commission acting as programme supervisor

European Space Agency (ESA) to continue with its role for the system design and development

Galileo Deployment Phase

FROM A SYSTEM TO SERVICES FROM A SYSTEM TO A SERVICE ENTERPRISE

GALILEO GROUND INFRASTRUCTUREA

GALILEO INITIAL SERVICES CENTERS

GALILEO CONTROL CENTERS

2 Complementary Control Centres: • Ground Mission Segment (GMS) in Fucino (Italy) has the responsibility for the mission aspects; • Ground Control Segment (GCS) in Oberpfaffenhofen (Germany), to control and monitor the constellation. Both centres are being completed to become fully redundant.

WHAT ARE INITIAL SERVICES PROVIDING?S

Open Service Open to all and interoperable with other GNSS; Global availability.

Public Regulated Service Access authorized and controlled by the government

authorities of the Member EU; Global availability.

Search and Rescue Open to all; Global, under the control of the Cospas-Sarsat international

organization; Locate signals sent in case of emergency and communicate the

distress call to the Search & Rescue centers.

SCRIPTA MANENT…DEFINITION DOCUMENTS

• Documents ready for OS, PRS and SAR

• Published: 15/12/2016 • Based on predefined

Minimum Performance Levels (MPL)

• Include additional technical information and expected evolution of services

The conditions under which the Galileo Initial Services will be delivered,

including their expected performance (accuracy, etc) and availability, have been published on the website of the European Service Centre found here: www.gsc-europa.eu

INITIAL SERVICES FROM THE USERS PERSPECTIVE

Better availability of satellite signals:

Being compatible and interoperable with GPS, all Galileo-enabled navigation devices are capable to ‘see’ more satellites especially important in urban environments where the presence of high buildings can prevent signal reception.

Improved Search and Rescue service:

SAR services enhanced with Galileo will improve: Detection time of a person in distress (3 hours vs 10 minutes) Accuracy of position of the distress beacon (10km range vs 5 km range)

Very precise timing:

Galileo timing will provide very high accuracy and resilience, e.g. in combination with GPS, needed for infrastructure synchronisation.

The timing of Galileo can be used with only one satellite in view

Y CALL SYSTEMS

Galileo compatibility required in every

new car/van model sold in Europe

United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) working in a eCall harmonised regulation

13 Millions of light vehicles sold every year in EU

AUTOMOTIVE MARKET: eCALL

AUTOMOTIVE MARKET: DIGITAL TACHOGRAPH

Digital Tachograph (DT) improves road safety, supporting the respect of time of drive and rest rules.

The new amended EU legislation is proposing GNSS inside the new generation of Digital Tachograph requiring in particular Galileo compatibility.

The need for increased robustness and trustability is opening new opportunities for Galileo OSNMA Authentication!

MARITIME MARKET

• An important milestone enabling Galileo adoption in commercial shipping worldwide

• A potential ~110 m€

market enabled with relevant positive effect on recreational market segment

Galileo recognised as part of World Wide Radio-Navigation System during the 96th session of the Maritime

Safety Committee in London on 17 May 2016

IS IT POSSIBLE TO USE GALILEO IN RECEIVERS?

From 3 manufacturers adopting Galileo in 2010 to 17 in 2016, representing more than the 95% of global supply
