28.12.2005 GALILEO, Europe’s global satellite navigation system

is now a concrete reality. Today, the 600-Kilogram GIOVE-A satellite, manufactured by the British company Surrey Satellite Technology Limited, was placed in a 23,222 kilometres orbit by a Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

The GIOVE mission (Galileo In-Orbit Validation Element) comprises 2 satellites (GIOVE-A and B). GIOVE tests critical new technologies (such as the on-board atomic clocks, signal generator and user receivers) and validates the new features of the Galileo signal design, characterises the radiation environment of the Medium Earth Orbits (MEOs) planned for the Galileo satellites and secures access to the Galileo frequencies allocated by the International Telecommunications Union.

27.04.2008

A further step towards the deployment of Europe's Galileo global navigation satellite system was taken tonight, with the successful launch of ESA's second Galileo In-Orbit Validation Element (GIOVE-B) satellite, carrying the most accurate atomic clock ever flown into space.

The GIOVE-B satellite was lofted into a medium altitude orbit around the earth by a Soyuz/Fregat rocket departing from the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan by launch operator Starsem. Lift-off occurred at 04:16 local time on 27 April (00:16 Central European Summer Time).

This 500 kg satellite was built by a European industrial team led by Astrium GmbH, with Thales Alenia Space performing integration and testing in Rome. Two years after the highly successful GIOVE-A mission, this latest satellite will continue the demonstration of critical technologies for the navigation payload of future operational Galileo satellites.

Like its predecessor, GIOVE-B carries two redundant small-size rubidium atomic clocks, each with a stability of 10 nanoseconds per day. But it also features an even more accurate payload: the Passive Hydrogen Maser (PHM), with stability better than 1 nanosecond per day. The first of its kind ever to be launched into space, this is now the most stable clock operating in earth orbit.

GALILEO

The Modernized L2 Civil SignalAfter years of preparation, modernization called for: implementing military (M) code on the L1 and L2 frequencies for the

Department of Defense (DoD) providing a new L5 frequency in an aeronautical radio navigation service

(ARNS) band with a signal structure designed to enhance aviation applications

adding the C/A code to L2.Implementation was underway when the System Program Director for the

GPS Joint Program Office (JPO) asked whether it was wise simply toreplicate the 20th-century C/A code in a 21st-century “modernized”GPS.

Responding to this challenge, a truly modern L2 civil (L2C) signal wasdesigned in a remarkably short time to meet a much wider range ofapplications. The first launch of a Block IIR-M satellite in 2003 willcarry the new signal, as will all subsequent GPS satellites. As a result,civil GPS product designers eventually will have at least three ratherdifferent types of GPS signals to choose from. It also would be desirablefor GPS III to add a modern civil signal to L1, further increasing thenumber of design choices. Depending on the application, designers willbe able to select signals based on power, center frequency, code clockrate, signal bandwidth, code length, correlation properties, thresholdperformance, interference protection, and so on.

What is DGPS

• Basic Concept

• Observe all satellites at fixed reference station

• Reference station position is known very accurately

• Reference station measures PR to all satellites

• Satellites broadcast their positions in message

• Reference station compares observed and calculated PR

• Assumes all errors are range errors

• Computes and transmits DGPS correction signals
