Introduction to GNSS opportunities in different Market Segments Fiammetta Diani Market Development fiammetta.diani@gsa.europa.eu
GNSS market report issue 3: the most up-to-date global overview of GNSS market • SECTORS COVERED: • LBS • Aviation • Road transport • Maritime • Rail • Surveying • Agriculture http://www.gsa.europa.eu/news/gsa-releases-2012-gnss-market-report-0
1 billion GNSS devices by 2020 in Europe. LBS and Road leading in revenues…
… and GNSS is a main driver for innovative applications • Just few examples: • Connected vehicles • Location based payments • New supply chain monitoring concepts ? What’s next? New markets, new applications? 2009: GNSS becomes a standard feature of smartphones all over the world In the mean time… the EU policy is already creating new markets: eCall (estimation of 120 millions light vehicles equipped by 2025) and Digital Tacograph on all trucks 2005: TomTom creates the PND category 1999: Garmin launches e-trex,first affordable GPS
But what GNSS? Multi-constellation is already happening • SBAS (eg EGNOS) capability is commonplace in today’s receivers • Extra accuracy when you need it – at no cost • Level of confidence of GPS signal • In the near future, multi-constellation (e.g. GPS/Galileo/Glonass) will be the baseline some systems will deliver multiple frequencies • Much improved robustness and performance for users
Europe’s contribution to satellite navigation Galileo Worldwide navigation system “made in EU” Fully compatible with GPS* Early services starting from 2014 Open service free of charge and delivering dual frequencies (better performances) EGNOS Augmentation system of GPS Improves GPS performance European coverage (but under extension in other regions, e.g. North Africa) Available NOW, free of charge and widely available in automotive receivers ‘It’s there, use it’ ‘It’s there, use it’ *GPS: Global Positioning System The European GNSS Programmes
Galileo has already taken-off • 4 operational satellites have been launched, as 12 October 2012 (in addition to the 2 test satellites launched in 2005/2008) • All industrial contracts necessary have been signed to ensure up to 26 satellites • Early Galileo Operational Services will start in 2014 The European GNSS Programmes
12th March 2013: Galileo starts transmitting the navigation signal… SATELLITE FLIGHT DIRECTION The first 4 satellites start transmitting the navigation message: it is then possible to compute the position. ESTEC DECREASING POSITION QUALITY Zenith View @ ESTEC (GNOR Station)
…the same day, all over the world the first “position fix” with Galileo is computed • The first positions computed with Galileo confirms the excellent expected performances, at the state-of-the art in satellite navigation. • The satellites also transmit a time reference of atomic standard.
