Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IISWhether it is navigation with a smartphone, autonomous driving or in the smart city , the use of GNSS receivers (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) has become an indispensable part of our everyday lives. All applications have in common that they always need the optimal position and time information.
Fraunhofer IIS develops customer-specific receiver solutions for all available satellite navigation signals such as Galileo, GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and SBAS in the multi-frequency range or optimizes existing systems. Basis for this is the GOOSE receiver development platform, ensuring optimal position and time information at all times.
GNSS positioning with development of customized, high precision and secure GNSS receivers and GNSS antennas for specific applications that process signals from Galileo, GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and SBAS on multiple frequency bands.
