CETRA BASE has been declard as winner of the Galileo Masters Madrid 2021 Prize. The reason: “Optimization of Galileo PRS asset handling: An innovative way to build more accessible PRS receivers”.

The Galileo Masters is the global innovation competition scouting for cutting-edge solutions using satelllite navigation data organized by AZO Anwendungszentrum GmbH Oberpfaffenhofen with the support of ESA, EUSPA and European Commission.

The Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS), the flagship service of Galileo, is an encrypted navigation service for governmental users and sensitive applications. It offers high resilience to jamming and spoofing, thus ensuring continuity of service in times of crisis.

The PRS receivers currently on the market are inefficient in terms of PRS asset handling. As a consequence, they are complex and very expensive.

Our solution proposes a disruptive design making receivers simpler while retaining the robustness of the encrypted premium service. 

This fact will make PRS receivers more accessible to authorised users by drastically reducing their cost.
