GALILEO Overview• High Level Architecture
– Consist of 30 (27+3) satellites and associated ground infrastructure• Best solution in terms of robustness and performance homogeneity, including
northern latitudes
– Use CDMA signals on 4 frequencies
– Offer different services (OS-SoL-CS and PRS + SAR)
– Implement concept of Global Integrity
– Certify system performance
– Fully Operational by 2008

Local Elements
• Viewed as an integral part of the overall system-Recognised that a great many applications will require Local Elements
i.e. Category III landing
- Existence of capabilities considered and defined within the High Level documents of GALILEO
• Local services may be offered by the Galileo Operating Company or external service providers
• Possible to offer certified services where necessary
• Demonstrators of Local Elements will form part of the GALILEO development process and indicate achievable performance levels
GALILEO INTERIM SUPPORT STRUCTURE
EUROPEAN COMMISSION
Local Elements• Performance Enhancement in the following:
– Position, Velocity, Time• Differential Code
• Carrier - TCAR
– Availability• Pseudolite
– Integrity• Time To Alarn (TTA), and alam limit
– Communication• Single or bi-directional
• Voice, Data or Both
• Local Elements will offer different combinations of these enhancements to different extents over different service volumes
• Base level performances will be specified

GALILEO Schedule• 4 Phases
– Definition Phase• Up to end 2001• Initial definition of the GALILEO requirements and architecture
– Development and Validation• 2002 through 2005• Consolidation of Mission Requirements• Development of satellites and ground based components• In Orbit validation
– Deployment• 2006 through 2007• Construction and launch of satellites• Installation of complete ground segment
– Operations• 2008 onwards

Summary• GALILEO a joint EU / ESA initiative
– Unanimous support from both ESA and EU councils
– EC politically responsible, ESA technically responsible
• Builds upon existing European experience in field of GNSS (EGNOS)
• Designed from a civilian perspective
• Independent from, but interoperable with other systems– GPS, GLONASS, EGNOS, UMTS etc.
• Brings additional robustness for civil aviation
• Further information can be found at the following Web sites
