This year's program focused on giving students a comprehensive overview of satellite navigation, an area in which GMV is a clear leader, covering concepts such as global navigation satellite systems (GNSS); signals and data processing in receivers; and positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) solutions.
The Summer School, which included a series of lectures on the present and future of satellite systems, also focused on having the students develop an innovative group project covering all stages of entrepreneurship, from an initial business idea or plan to the technical implementation and commercialization of the final product.
Victor Pozo, Head of GMV's Navigation Systems Ground Control Segment, attended this year's ESA/JRC International Summer School to explore this topic in greater depth and to share GMV's experience in the satellite navigation sector with the students, giving a presentation entitled "GMV-powered navigation scenario."
In June, GMV won a major ESA contract to develop the control ground segment of the Galileo Second Generation (G2G) in-orbit validation (IOV) system.
Galileo, Europe's global navigation satellite system, is the proud flagship of the European Union's growing space activity. It currently serves more than four billion users worldwide, providing global positioning, navigation, and clock synchronization services.
