Impact of Galileo commercial service on location-based service providers: business model analysis and policy implications

Today's mobile location-based services (LBSs) largely depend on a free-of-charge, best-effort positioning technology, called global positioning system, which is controlled by the US military. The European alternative Galileo will not only offer a similar best-effort system by 2020, but also a premium-rate service known as Galileo commercial service (CS). Galileo CS is planned to provide higher positioning accuracy, improved security due to signal authentication and service guarantee. While the technology behind Galileo is often studied, the impact of Galileo CS on the LBS marketplace is rarely discussed. In this article, we fill this gap by analysing how improved accuracy, authentication and service guarantee may impact the business models of LBS providers. We do so by interviewing service providers, policy makers and industry experts on what new services would be enabled; technological alternatives that may emerge in the coming years; and organisational and financial issues that service providers face when adopting such a premium-priced positioning signal. We find that a more accurate, secure and reliable global navigation satellite system signal enables a range of new LBSs, although several alternative technologies are emerging that may make Galileo CS obsolete before it is even launched. To convince the LBS providers to adopt Galileo CS, the institution operating Galileo should get governments on board early on for building trust and should consider progressive pricing schemes. Still, service providers are sceptical about adopting Galileo CS, and the hope to recoup any investments in Galileo may thus be in vain.

Binary‐offset‐carrier modulation techniques with applications in satellite navigation systems

An important aspect in designing the modulation scheme for various satellite systems, such as the modernized GPS and Galileo, is to obtain good spectral properties and suitable spectral shaping. For example, in the future satellite navigation systems, some of the main goals are: low interference with the existing GPS signals, good root‐mean‐square (RMS) bandwidth, good time resolution (in order to allow the separation between channel paths and to decrease the synchronization errors) etc. Starting from the recently proposed cosine‐ and sine‐BOC modulation families for GPS and Galileo systems, we introduce a new, generalized family, denoted here by double‐BOC (DBOC) modulation. We derive and analyze the properties of the power spectral densities (PSD) and autocorrelation functions (ACF) of the DBOC modulation with various orders, we show its relationship with BPSK, sine‐ and cosine‐BOC modulations, and we illustrate via several examples how to choose optimally the parameters of this new modulation family, according to different optimization criteria. The examples are targeting at applications such as the design of suitable modulations for Galileo open service (OS) and public regulated service (PRS) signals, but the authors believe that the DBOC concept might be useful to other satellite‐based applications, when the available bandwidth is large enough.

The English Galileo: Thomas Harriot and the Force of Shared Knowledge in Early Modern Mechanics

I discuss the work of the English mathematician and philosopher Thomas Harriot (1560–1621), analyzing especially his work on projectile motion, and comparing it to that of his contemporary Galileo Galilei (1564–1642). I argue that although their work on projectile motion was carried out independently and displays both similarities and differences, it shows that they focused on common challenging objects of study that embodied what I term “points of contact” between preclassical and classical mechanics. I also argue that their shared knowledge defined the space of possible solutions to the problem of projectile motion, although the inferential pathways they followed through their shared knowledge proceeded in exactly opposite directions. I conclude that their work suggests that the lines of development in early modern mechanics converged in such a way that the long-term development of science was largely unaffected by the peculiarities in an individual scientist’s work.
