Ultra low-cost PRS Receiver
Background & objectives
The Public Regulated Service (PRS) is a Galileo secure Positioning, Navigation and Timing service. It is an encrypted service only available to government-approved users with high demand for continuous services (such as law enforcement). The major benefit of PRS is its robustness, which protects it against accidental or malicious interference (e.g., jamming or spoofing). The drawback of PRS is that it imposes stringent security constraints on receivers, which also result in higher costs.
