radual Service Introduction15th DECEMBER 2016…THIS IS IT !

OS Navigation

Good ranging signals (2 m 95% accuracy, more than 87% availability)

Excellent timing performance (30 ns, more than 87%)

SAR Forward

Link

Contribution to COSPAS/SARSAT with shorter detection times (10min) and better localization accuracy

PRS Access Good ranging signals

Access Management

Security Monitoring

Centralisation of system security events in GSMC for analysis and reporting

• Excellent performance delivered since Initial Services Declaration• For Navigation: Typical constellation average pseudorange

accuracy (0.4-0.6 meters 95%)• For Search and Rescue: Welll within detection and localisation

targets set by COSPAS SASAT

• Minimum teething problems in handling operational service and system deployment in parallel

• Full transparencyQuarterly Performance Reports publishedthrough the Galileo Service Center website

• The key focus is now on Service Provision

• Service Delivery handed over to the European GNSS Agency (GSA)

• New operations contract signed in Dec 2016 SpaceOpal 10-year service contrat

GALILEO SERVICE PROVISION

The European GNSS

Programmes

COMMERCIAL SERVICE – EN ROUTE !Programme decision taken : High Accuracy and

Authentication.

Authentication will be based on a

Navigation Message Authentication:

Integrated in the E1 OS. Aimed at consumer usersand offered for free. Already prototyped and undertesting

Commercial Service Authentication: based on the E6 Spreading Code Encryption.

High Accuracy will be based on PPP transmission in E6B.

FREE PROVISION IS THE LIKELY SCENARIO

Gradual implementation between 2018 and 2020

Timing for Critical Infrastructures

Approved as a Global Maritime Distress & Safety System

European Radio-Navigation Plan modernise infrastructure rationalise investments synergies between sectors

SEARCH AND RESCUE– COSPAS SARSAT MEOSAR IS DECLARED

• Early Operational Capability (EOC) for MEOSAR declared by COSPAS SARSAT in December 2016

• Faster Detection of Beacons• Better position accuracy

• Collaborative approach with SAR Transponders

onboard GALILEO – GPS – GLONASS

• EU Coverage 3 MEOLUTs

MORE IS COMING– SOON !

Part of the I/NAV message capacity

is unused due to Safety of Life re-profiling

Redesign of the I/NAV message:

• enhances reconstruction of the transmitted Galileo System Time through providing robust symbol level synchronization patterns,

• significantly improves the Time-to-First-Fix through shortening of the message systematic time-to-ephemeris and time-to-clock correction,

• improves robustness of navigation message demodulation in degraded channels for E1 OS.

The target is to make the new I/NAV features available for all Galileo satellites by FOC

FULLY BACKWARD COMPATIBLE WITH LEGACY RECEIVERS

AND MORE…• New MEOLUT to be deployed in

Indian Ocean• Bridge coverage gap for COSPAS

SARSAT MEOSAR

• New batch of satellite ordered to OHB12 SVs confirmed

• Launch Services to ArianespaceUse of new Ariane 6-2 launcher

• New SAR Return Link ServiceAcnkowledge detection of distress calls

• And Soon… A new face for Galileo !!!

EVOLUTION – HIGH LEVEL SCENARIOS DEFINED• Users are at the center

• Evolutionary path• Transition Satellites to replenish constellation and Introduce new technology Procurement to be initiated soon.• Build upon existing service portfolio• Operate in more challenging environment• Operate in conjunction with other GNSS and non-GNSS technologies• Bring New Services

• Timing• Space Service• Advanced RAIM• Emergency Warning

• Optimize system for service delivery and flexibility

• Costs of development, deployment and operation shall be minimized

EVOLUTIONS - ROADMAP

Consult

• Users

• Industrial Stakeholders

• Member States and Institutional actors

Consolidate

• Mission Needs established by EC

• System scenarios established by ESA

• Cost Benefit Analyses conducted by GSA

Decide• Down selection to one scenario• Budgetary Elements

Implement

• G2G Design and Development

INTERNATIONAL• Extensive bi-lateral cooperations:

• Deliver best multiconstellation services

• Adopt compatible solutions for innovative services:• SAR Return Link• Advanced RAIM for safety of Life• Emergency Warning Services• Authentication• Dual Frequency / Multi Constellation SBAS

• Defend jointly the use of GNSS Spectrum

• Build-up resilience of GNSS

• Continuous involvement in multilateral discussions in UN-ICG• Contribution to performance monitoring (IGMA initiative)

• Cooperation in international standardisation bodies

END 2018…• You want:

• To navigate using multi-constellation or Galileo Standalone,

• Ever more Availability,• Improved Accuracy,• Increased Trust,• Robust Timing,• More Costumer Care…

• All of the above ?

The Countdown has Started towards…

Do you think the communication around Galileo Initial Services relayed by the Media was:

1. Very positive

2. Good in general

3. Rather polemic

4. Negative

5. I don’t know

Thank you
