DLR
Using GNSS and Big Data Techniques to improve safety in critical maritime operations

This project was intended to contribute to the implementation of the e-navigation concept (as defined by IMO, Ref. 2.2.6), with primary focus on the navigation in restricted waters, such as harbours, lagoons or regions where the traffic congestion can create conditions for accidents or inefficient operations.

Challenges and opportunities for satellite communications and navigation augmentation systems in maritime non-exclusive VHF bands

The VHF Data Exchange System (VDES) is a future maritime communication system with the principal objective of enhancing maritime communication applications, based on robust and efficient digital transmission with wider bandwidth than Automatic Identification System (AIS), with a data rate up to 32 times the current AIS. As for AIS, VDES is mainly a ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore system. The ship-to-shore system will use the terrestrial VDES infrastructure that will extend the VDES coverage to only around 60 km from the shore.

Feasibility of ultra low thrust transfers in L1, L2, Sun, Earth & Moon Systems

A set of tools have been developed to enable assessment of the Feasibility of Ultra Low Thrust Transfers in regions of multi-body gravity field influence. Aspects include:
• Trajectory design/optimisation
• Error analysis and stochastic manoeuvre budgets
Navigation analyses have been performed to understand the solution sensitivity to key input assumptions.

Feasibility of ultra low thrust transfers in L1, L2, Sun, Earth & Moon Systems

The number of spacecraft flying in highly nonlinear gravitational fields is largely increased during the last few decades, and probes orbiting in Lissajous or Halo orbits can be found around both the Lagrangian Points L1 and L2 of the Sun-Earth&Moon system.

Deep Space Navigation with Pulsars (parallel 1)

A study on Deep Space Navigation with Pulsars has been carried out in accordance with ESA Statement of Work Reference: TEC-ETN/2011.90, Issue 1, Revision 2. The UK National Physical Laboratory (NPL) was the prime contractor with University of Leicester (UL) as a sub-contractor.

Deep Space Navigation with Pulsars (parallel 2)

The XNAV concept has been analysed in detail. The performances obtained from simulations have been validated successfully using real data from XMM-Newton space telescope.
The performances obtained using real data are not in line with the XNAV performances (100 m for the Crab pulsar) due to limitations in the XMM-Newton instrument operations. We have been forced to use a source much fainter than the Crab pulsar and surrounded by a background much stronger than expected.
