The Galileo System Simulation Facility (GSSF)
Galileo
Independent, global, European satellitenavigation system
For civilian applications & interoperablewith GPS
GSSF
Simulation environment that reproducesthe functional and performance behaviourof the Galileo system
Offers the necessary flexibility and functional scope to support Galileo system simulation needs during the entire program life cycle.
Developed on behalf of ESA/ESTEC by an international consortium led by VEGA
Validation has received prime attention (also independently by ESOC).
Visualisation supported by IDL (CREASO)

GSSF – Simulation Capabilities
GSSF provides a single simulator that uses alternative models depending upon the type of analysis the end-user wishes to perform (more flexibility than traditional simulators):
Service Volume Performance Analyses (navigation and integrity performance over longer time periods and over large geographical areas).
Raw Data Generation (Galileo and GPS raw data for experimental purposes: RINEX observation, IGS SP3)
Simulation of the nominal system and its various degraded modes (failures of elements)

GSSF Validation
GSSF has been rigorously validated.
SVS Validation: Against simulated data from trusted sources
RDG Validation against real data: RINEX files from Kourou were extracted from the GSTB-V1 test data set together
with IGS ephemeris and clock files.
Code, carrier and Doppler measurements as simulated by GSSF RDG were compared with those obtained from the real Kourou data (stepwise approach).
ESA/ESOC have carried out an independent validation of GSSF Successful IGS Processing and 64 mm RMS orbit fit over 24 hrs The GSSF Raw Data is a valid representation of real measurement data.

GIOVE-A
Successful GSSF validation with GPS measurements
GIOVE-A measurements provided by ESA will now be used to further calibrate GSSF RDG
This will not affect the environment but satellite-specific models(e.g. acceleration due to solar radiation).

GSSF Raw Data Generation Example
Effect of a clock jump, imposed as a Feared Event during the simulation on a Galileo Satellite observed at a Galileo Sensor station (Kourou).
The clock jump is defined by an additional bias of -0.0003 s applied at30 min after the simulation start time.
Jump of 90 km
Due to environmental delayson the signal and clock offsets

COOPERS (Co-operative Networks for Intelligent Road Safety)
Integrated EU-Project with the following objectives:
Establish methodology for the integration of traffic control, traffic management and traffic information systems
Develop cost-efficient and advanced roadside and vehicle-side sensors and positioning-based situation-dependable driver assistance system (OBU)
Evaluate whether such methods will meet the overall target to improve safety
Assess what additional value can be achieved by Galileo for robust positioning, applying measurement campaigns and calibrated simulation using GSSF
Kick-off in February 2006 (40 partners, initially for 18 months with a possible extension towards 4 years, co-funded by the EU)

GSSF supports the simulationof mobile users:
Ground-based vehicles
Aircraft in flight
Satellites in LowEarth Orbit (LEO)
Errors such as clockfailures can be simulatedalong the trajectories.
