GALILEOEuropean Satellite NavigationSystem
What’s new?
• Real-time integrity - warning of failure• Legal service guarantees• Multi-nation control• Commercial service-provider• Civil, not military
• Technically compatible • More satellites• Higher accuracy
… plus …?

Satellite and Control System Failures
Official announcement: "A significant GPS anomaly occurred on 1 Jan 04... (which) … resulted in the transmission of Hazardously Misleading Information."

• GPS satellite radiates 100W
• From 20,000km range
• Illuminates 38% of Earth
• eg Europe + Africa + Atlantic

Solar flares
“The burst produced 20,000 times more radio emissionthan the … rest of the sun … and swamped GPSreceivers over the entire sunlit side of the Earth.”

Low-powered GPS jammer on ship
Jammer of less than 1 milliWatt: •False positions, and velocities •Autopilot may turn vessel•But no alarms!
With a little more jammer power:•Electronic Chart Displays•Autopilot•Automatic Identification System•Differential GPS•Satellite voice and data comms•Maritime distress safety system
plus …Ship’s Radar & Gyrocompass

Jammers like this already on our streets can block all frequenciesof GPS and Galileo, Compass-Beidou & GLONASS, plus theEGNOS, WAAS, QZSS & GAGAN augmentation systems.

Reduce impact ofGPS vulnerability• Harden GPS systems
• Complementary navigation system
- independent of satellite navigation
- compatible with it
- meets modern standards
• Enhanced Loran (eLoran)• GNSS + eLoran: So resilient you can reduce lighthouses and buoys – and pay for eLoran

Enhanced Loran(eLoran)
• eLoran: Strong LF signals from earth • GPS: Weak microwaves from space• Both: timing, ranges, position, time• No common mode of failure • Plug-in replacement
The GLAs’ prototype eLoran system is on the air
Runs continuously; available since May 2010; 10-20m accuracy in ports with differential service (green area)

On 28 February 2013, the Trinity House Vessel Galatea reverted automatically to eLoran when GPS was jammed. Galatea
continued seamlessly on track, reporting eLoran positions to nearby ships and the Vessel Traffic Service ashore.
