Abstract

The PEGASUS receiver is a newly designed prototype for GNSS application in SoL user segment. The project is part of an Italian initiative, financed by the Italian Space Agency (Agenzia Spaziale Italiana, ASI contract ASI I/024/10/0 “Evoluzione tecnologica di un ricevitore integrato GALILEO per applicazioni Safety of Life”). The project is a technological common platform where the SoL Receiver technology is developed, integrated and tested in a real environment.
