Development of certifiable systems and software for European Space Applications requires strict adherence to the ECSS standards. ECSS - the European Cooperation for Space Standardization - is a cooperation of the European Space Agency (ESA), national space agencies and the European Industry Association Eurospace with the aim of developing and maintaining coherent, commercially oriented and user-friendly standards for space applications. The main intention is to improve the performance and…

When people think of satellite-based GPS, they envision a high-tech satellite navigation system that can pinpoint locations worldwide to within a few meters. But global navigation systems (GNSS) such as the American GPS or the European Galileo struggle with many environmental interferences. So-called satellite-based augmentation systems (SBAS) improve the performance of these navigation systems by correcting their data. From 2022, the Korean peninsula will also benefit from the PikeOS-based SBAS…

Wenn man an Satellitengestütztes GPS denkt, dann hat man ein High-Tech Satelliten-Navigationssystem vor Augen, das weltweit bis auf wenige Meter genau den Standort erkennen kann. Doch Globale Navigationssysteme (GNSS) wie das amerikanische GPS oder das europäische Galileo kämpfen mit vielen Umwelt-Störeinflüssen. Sogenannte Satellite-based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) verbessern die Leistung dieser Navigationssysteme, indem sie ihre Daten korrigieren. Ab 2022 wird nun auch die koreanische…
