A very low-powered GPS jammer on board causedhazardously misleading information (HMI).

hazardously: no alarms sounded. misleading: erroneous positions and velocities,

some of them simply not noticeable!

Galatea Trials

A little more jammer power …

… alarms began to sound and, one-by-one, thesebridge systems failed:

• ECDIS: Electronic Chart Display• Ship’s autopilot• DGPS: Differential GPS • Heli-deck stabilisation system• Satellite voice and data communications• DSC-GMDSS: Maritime Distress Safety System• Radar • Gyro-compass • AIS: Automatic Identification System

Radar: Alarm, echo and AIS don’t agree

• Gyrocompass: Alarm, and drifts over time

Reverting to traditional navigation when GPS is lost
