Mr. Johannes Kröger
Research Assistant
Leibniz University Hannover, Institut für Erdmessung

Novel Approach for Receiver Antenna Calibration: Parameterization of Phase Center Corrections by Hemispherical Harmonics

4:50 PM - 5:10 PM

Biography

Johannes Kröger received his M.Sc. degree in Geodesy and Geoinformatics at the Leibniz University Hannover (Germany) in 2018. Since then, he works as a Ph.D. student at the Institut für Erdmessung (LUH). His current interests are absolute GNSS receiver antenna calibration and the analysis of high-sensitivity GNSS equipment. In particular, he investigates and optimizes the calibration procedure and estimation of phase center corrections (PCC) and develops methods to compare different sets of PCC.
Dr. Jiachen Yin
Research Fellow
Cranfield Univeristy

Enhanced DME Carrier Phase Tracking Approach for Alternative PNT in UAV Applications

5:10 PM - 5:30 PM

Biography

Dr Ivan Petrunin Reader in Signal Processing for Autonomous Systems and DARTeC Fellow Ivan has extensive knowledge and experience in the area of Digital Signal Processing for Autonomous Systems which covers sensor technologies, perception, data and information fusion, and decision-making for Cyber-Physical Systems.Applications for these developments include vehicle health management, communication and surveillance solutions and, more recently, Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) for aerospace and ground-based Autonomous and Intelligent Systems.
Dr. Andrea Masiero
Professor
University Of Padua

UAV position tracking with ground cameras

5:30 PM - 5:50 PM

Biography

Andrea Masiero is Associate Professor of Geomatics at the Research Center of Geomatics of the University of Padua. His research interests range from Geomatics, Mobile Mapping, Positioning and Navigation, Machine Learning to Computer Vision and Remote Sensing. In this work he is going to talk about indoor collaborative indoor positioning based on smartphone sensors, such as inertial sensors, and UWB radio signals.
