Specific Challenge:This topic intends to develop European standardized Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS) receiver technological capabilities, compatible with dual mode GPS/PRS GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiving equipment for military applications in air, land, naval and possibly space domains and achieving full compliance with the EU Common Minimum Standards (CMS).
First satellite navigation systems, e.g. GPS, were designed under military requirements and budget to improve defence capabilities. They revolutionised military applications by providing accurate position, velocity and time/synchronisation information for all military assets worldwide, in all weather conditions, with a common time and geodetic reference frame supporting the essential interoperability requirement. Galileo has been developed to guarantee Europe’s strategic autonomy in Satellite navigation. The Galileo PRS has been developed as a robust, secure and resilient PNT service even in case of denial of the other GNSS services. Interoperable and compatible with GPS, the PRS will provide the EU military users state-of-the-art satellite navigation performance, robustness and interop...

Specific Challenge:This topic intends to develop European standardized Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS) receiver technological capabilities, compatible with dual mode GPS/PRS GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiving equipment for military applications in air, land, naval and possibly space domains and achieving full compliance with the EU Common Minimum Standards (CMS).
First satellite navigation systems, e.g. GPS, were designed under military requirements and budget to improve defence capabilities. They revolutionised military applications by providing accurate position, velocity and time/synchronisation information for all military assets worldwide, in all weather conditions, with a common time and geodetic reference frame supporting the essential interoperability requirement. Galileo has been developed to guarantee Europe’s strategic autonomy in Satellite navigation. The Galileo PRS has been developed as a robust, secure and resilient PNT service even in case of denial of the other GNSS services. Interoperable and compatible with GPS, the PRS will provide the EU military users state-of-the-art satellite navigation performance, robustness and interoperability and, when combined with GPS, an even higher level of resilience for military use.
The CDP points to the need to promote the development of robust, secure and resilient EU military PNT capabilities. To achieve this objective in time (with regard to the Galileo PRS Full Orbital Capability (FOC) foreseen by 2023), operational EU military PRS receivers, associated to their antennas and key management facilities as well as service architectures and test and support facilities, need to be developed and those developments cannot be supported by the private sector, because of the high investment cost. In addition, the development of military standardized Galileo PRS receiver interfaces has been identified as an objective within the Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO). This standardisation will ensure the development of the EU market by facilitating the integration of PRS receivers into the armament systems. It will then increase the competitiveness and growth of the defence industry for those armament systems (the satellite navigation capabilities embedded are one of the criteria of choice for armament systems within the military market).
The EU activities supported so far have been feasibility studies, design activity and accreditation of one pre operational prototype.
Therefore, the challenge is to develop EU operational prototypes of PRS receivers with standardized interfaces, to be qualified and tested by FOC (2023) within at least one host platform. Testing in standardized and controllable test facilities as well as in a real environment with in-field demonstrations implementing real/realistic service architecture must be scheduled with the involvement of defence user communities.
Scope:Proposals shall address the development of European standardized and sovereign Galileo PRS navigation receiver capabilities compatible with GPS/PRS solution for military purposes in air, land, naval domains developed in full conformity with the EU Common Minimum Standards (CMS) from prototyping up to qualification or test. In this respect, the proposals shall cover:
PRS security modules (SM);PRS receiver equipped with GPS/Galileo-compatible CRPA (Controlled Radiation Pattern Antennas);Anti-jamming and anti-spoofing capabilities/protection as applicable to the operational domain;Standardization of interface with military GPS and multi-GNSS fusion;Standardization of interface for PRS receivers;Key management, PRS security management and other PRS information management capability;Services architectures for test and support facilities;Security certification. The tests shall be performed in standardized support facilities guaranteeing a controlled environment and afterwards in operational conditions with the operational Galileo system and real/realistic service architecture to demonstrate the real capability of the PRS receivers developed. The possibility to consider space domain may be addressed in the proposals.
Targeted activities:
The proposals shall cover all the necessary activities for the prototyping, testing and qualification on different platforms (naval, land, airborne) of PRS receivers, encompassing in particular:
Prototyping of: PRS SMs including application-specific integrated circuit SMs;PRS receivers as well as integration activities in host equipment and smart antennas (such as CRPA), e.g. navigation systems and platforms. Prototyping, testing and qualification of common infrastructure for testing, key management, PRS security management and other PRS information management;Standardization of the interfaces with military GPS and multi-GNSS fusion: those standardization documents shall be elaborated for PRS receivers and for host equipment embedding a PRS receiver, e.g. navigation systems and/or hosting platforms;Testing and qualification of resulting PRS receivers operational prototypes on a set of representative military applications including jamming and spoofing protection;Implementation of the security certification process of developed PRS products involving at least two Member States’ civil aviation authorities in all the relevant steps. Main high-level requirements:
The following requirements shall be fulfilled:
The PRS activity shall comply with PRS security rules defined by Decision No 1104/2011/EU (Decision No 1104/2011/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2011 on the rules for access to the public regulated service provided by the global navigation satellite system established under the Galileo programme, OJ 287/1, 4.11.2011), by Commission delegated supplementing Decision No 1104/2011/EU as regards the Common Minimum Standards (CMS) (Commission delegated Decision C(2015)6123 of 15.9.2015 supplementing Decision No 1104/2011/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the common minimum standards to be complied with by the competent PRS authorities), and by the referenced programme documents (classification guide, COMSEC (Communication Security) instructions…);Galileo PRS receiver functions shall be embedded in the form of standardised and generic PRS boards;At least two generic PRS boards and two SMs shall be prototyped, at least one of those SMs being an application-specific integrated circuit;The PRS receiver prototypes shall use technologies suitable for various types of platforms for land, maritime, air domains and timing & synchronisation;Standardisation activities shall consider dual mode Galileo PRS/GPS operational use;Standardization documents shall in particular define the functional and performances characteristics of the PRS receivers as well as the interfaces, including with GPS and multi-GNSS fusion;Standardized Form factors and interfaces of the generic PRS boards shall be chosen in order to facilitate integration for the EU defence industry;The standardisation activities shall prepare maximum reuse of building blocks and technologies already developed within the EU;Test with host platforms shall be defined from a broad range of representative applications such as tactical RPAS (Remotely Piloted Aircraft System), ISTAR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance) vehicles, naval patrol boats (maritime surveillance capabilities), combat vehicles, land robotics, time keeping and network synchronization;Validation tests shall be performed in a common and standardized test environment to be developed and by demonstrations within European field test centres and/or, when possible, during operational test campaign in several Member States;The field test campaigns shall include the testing of the navigation capabilities in jamming and spoofing environments to validate in particular the achievement of a robust, secure and resilient EU military PNT capability for the EU;Each standardization activity shall produce, as deliverable, an interface control document.
Expected Impact:Contribute to the industrial autonomy of the European defence industry and to the security and defence interests of the Union;Promote and facilitate the uptake of the Galileo PRS service, developed under EU funding, to cover EU defence applications and provide significant advantages over existing defence products or technologies;Provide the EU industry with an equal playing field in the defence market where embedded GNSS solution is a competitive advantage (with currently no embedded EU GNSS solution);Guarantee an access to all Member States to PRS equipment and services with the availability of common innovative qualified PRS technologies;Providing EU owned standards for the interfaces for Galileo PRS receivers;Provide essential technologies for EU defence interoperability;Create a critical mass for PRS equipment and incentivize joint procurement and maintenance leading to price reduction/cost savings;Ensure PRS user equipment technology readiness across the whole value chain, enabling EU military forces equipment at PRS FOC declaration;Consolidate the credibility of the PRS EU approach during the on-going international PRS negotiations (currently with Norway and the United States).
