The European Navigation Conference 2023 (ENC 2023) took place at the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) of the European Space Agency (ESA) in Noordwijk, The Netherlands, from 31 May until 2 June 2023 [...]

The paper describes the development of a machine learning-based system to predict the performance of EGNOS. The system is shown to perform considerably better than existing simple geometry-based ‘macro’ models developed for the same purpo...

Mitigating multipath interference is one of the biggest challenges in radio positioning. The Supercorrelation™ technology developed via Focal Point Positioning (FPP) suppresses multipath interference by performing long coherent integration whil...

New areas for the production of fossil-free renewable offshore energy production are planned in Arctic waters in the Bay of Bothnia, in the very north of the Baltic Sea between Sweden and Finland. These are waters normally covered with 30–60 cm...

In this study, the NeQuick G and Klobuchar models are evaluated by monitoring performance issues related to ionosphere activity for single-frequency users. The effects of radio frequency (RF) signal propagation through the ionosphere may have a signi...

The main issue in the development of precise positioning is the way in which to send GNSS corrections. To handle this case, a terrestrial broadcast mechanism based on DAB+ (digital audio broadcasting) signals was chosen to overcome the scalability ch...

In just one year, Spaceopal and its partners developed the Galileo HAS Performance Characterization User Algorithm for the EU Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA). The Galileo HAS User Terminal (HAUT) hosts the Galileo HAS Performance Characterizat...

The General Lighthouse Authorities (GLA) R&D Directorate has, for some time, advocated that alternate position navigation and timing (PNT) systems should be established to offset critical dependency on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS),...

In the last few years, gradually more systems have relied on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) for their correct functioning. These systems include safety-critical applications such as airports or emergency services. Given the wide number...
