Speaker

Dr. Ciro Gioia
Project Officer
European Commission Joint Research Centre

Monitoring Radio Frequency Interference Affecting GNSS using Android Smartphones

4:30 PM - 4:50 PM

Biography

Dr. Gioia received the M.S. in Nautical sciences and the Ph. D. in Topography and Geomatics from Parthenope University, in 2009 and 2014, respectively. Since 2013, he has been working at the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, providing scientific support to policymakers in the development of EU space policy. Currently, he is Project Officer at the Galileo Sector of the JRC. His research interests are primarily centered around location and navigation with focus on positioning accuracy, reliability, and performance in various environments. His work delves into the development of robust GNSS solutions that address challenges such as signal interference and multipath effects, which are critical for improving navigation systems used in transportation, aviation, and emergency response.
Mr. Guillaume Rance
Control systems engineer
Safran Electronics & Defense

Development of a star classifier for optimal geopositionning purposes using a star-sighting device

4:50 PM - 5:10 PM

Biography

Guillaume Rance is R&D engineer at Safran Electronics & Defense, and holds a Ph.D. in control systems engineering. His research activities mainly concern the control of gyrostabilized sights, robotics and space-based applications such as stellar navigation.
Dr. Aiden Morrison
Senior Researcher
Nordic Navigation Forum

Wide area GNSS interference source localization using a sparse monitoring network

5:10 PM - 5:30 PM

Biography

Aiden Morrison is a senior researcher at SINTEF Digital in trondheim Norway. His background includes a bachelor's degree in Eletrical Engineering and a Doctorate from the University of Calgary Geomatics Engineering program. His work in recent years has focused on GNSS Radio Frequency Interference detection and analysis and has contributed to the creation of the largest known database of multi-frequency multi-constellation RFI for which raw sample data has been centrally collected and retained.
