Connected cars are likely to include the following capabilities:

Integration with home networks* Data exchange with insurers, manufacturers and

third parties* Diagnostics and vehicle health reports Improved navigation and positioning* In-vehicle WiFi hotspot Payment integration* Streaming of music and Video on Demand Localised information and advertising* Police warnings and location* Car-to-car gaming Real time traffic and incident alerts* Assisted and automated driving*

* GNSS supported

Other automotive applications?

Sensor-Based Solution Only

Connected Vehicle Solution Only

Converged Solution

• Facilitate adequate mimic of human senses

• Convergence will provide the necessary level of functional redundancy

• DSRC does not currently work with pedestrians, bicyclists, etc.

• DSRC-based V2I (Vehicle-to-Infrastructure communication) might require significant infrastructure investment

• V2V (Vehicle-to-Vehicle communication) requires high market penetration to deliver value reliably

• Cannot sufficiently mimic human senses

• Not cost-effective for mass market adoption

• Lack of adequate 360º mapping of environment in urban grids

SENSOR BASED VS. CONNECTION BASED VS. CONVERGED SOLUTION

Converged solution reduces need for both expensive mix of sensors and infrastructure

investments. Accurate and secure GNSS will contribute

to drastically reduce the cost!

GNSS shares the complementarity and interoperability with automotive technologies

Multi-Constellation

Galileo contribution to: Multiconstellation/Multifrequency

Multi-constellation: When buildings block the signal and reduce the number of visible satellites, the availability of more constellations ensures a much more accurate final position

Multi-frequency increases robustness of the position against jammers, because even if a satellite is not available or providing incorrect data, a reasonable accuracy will be achieved

Independent analysis of the GNSS receivers’ capabilities confirms the multi-constellation trend

than 300 receivers, chipsets

and modules currently available

Global coverage

Fully compatible with GPS

Open service free-of-charge and delivering

dual frequencies (better performances)

14 satellites have been launched, till now:

Half of them were launched in 2015

16 additional satellites already in production

4 satellites to be launched in October 2016

Initial operational services declaration in

November 2016

Galileo is implemented in a step-wise approach

Correlation between the automotive application needs and GNSS performance for UBI

• CS - Galileo Commercial Service

• OS - Galileo Open Service

• SCE - Security Encrypted keys in the E6c signal

• NMA - Navigation Message Authentication in the E1b signal

(Cyber) Security is becoming a major concern in automotive industry

Increasing need to get robust GNSS modules provide an efficient, resilient and low-cost solution against jamming or spoofing attacks

2018

Galileo unique differentiator: signal authentication

In addition, Galileo signal authentication will provide trustability against spoofing attempts; this will facilitate the process for a legal use of GNSS position in several regulated road applications:

Safety-critical applications leveraging on precise and secure positioning

to scenarios of potential harm to humans or damage to a system/environment (e.g.: connected or autonomous vehicles, dangerous goods transportation, etc.)

Payment applications, in which GNSS is used to go from vehicle ownership to usage (e.g. road tolling, congestion charging, UBI, MaaS)

Liability applications based on new policies leveraging GNSS (e.g.: speed control, digital tachograph, accident reconstruction, etc.)

Robust GNSS

engine

Conclusion (1): Industry will demand an embedded robust GNSS engine

(including eCall)

Conclusion (2): Make sure you get all the benefits of satellite navigation technology

Multiple frequency (Galileo - GPS): immediate benefits in terms of accuracy and robustness. Essential for ITS and especially autonomous connected vehicles.

Authentication of the signal (Galileo): to assure that the signal is really coming from the satellites and not spoofed. More and more important payment and safety critical applications

Signal of opportunities and sensor fusion (GNSS + other techniques): users require a seamless transition outdoor/indoor, new techniques are emerging to complement the main GNSS-based positioning. This is essential for all intermodal applications and new “mobility as a service concept”

Very High Accuracy services (Galileo): cm accuracy via corrections transmitted via satellites; now only for professional applications, may become a standard also in ITS. Galileo contribution with its commercial service.
