Low-Cost GNSS Antenna Arrays for Improved Performance, Anti-Spoofing, and Meaconing and Interference Mitigation
DESCRIPTION
The activity primarily targets GNSS antennas for autonomous driving vehicles, which is a fast growing market.
It is foreseen that future vehicles will rely less and less on humans, and more and more on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), requiring reliable navigation based on several sensors (GNSS and others) in order to ensure security and safety inside and outside the vehicle in all conditions. The main objective of the activity is to design and develop a prototype representative of a multi-element GNSS antenna and receiver tailored for ADAS applications, that is able to mitigate different types of impairments, by the use of dynamic beamforming techniques.
A test campaign will be carried out to characterise the performance of the prototype in different conditions, and compare these results to reference solutions.
The activity will focus on critical technologies that will be subsequently used in the development of future antenna products.
The prototype will be based as much as possible on existing components and algorithms in order to reduce its recurrent cost, and pave the way for an affordable end product.
