Abstract

Future Global Navigation Satellite systems (GNSS) have significantly improve the performance of current navigation systems, providing new and enhanced capabilities. This enables the implementation of innovative and advanced services and applications more and more close to the user needs. In this framework, the road sector is one of the major potential market for GNSS applications and therefore it is very promising for future European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) and GALILEO related applications. Specifically, a very important commercial opportunity is represented by the tolling-related applications. The paper describes the vehicular remote tolling (VeRT) project sponsored by Galileo Joint Undertaking (GJU) and performed in the frame of the first GJU call under the EC VI Framework Programme, giving attention, in particular, to the communication network issues
