EUSPA launches a consultation on the Galileo Public Regulated Service
The European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) invited Competent Public Regulated Service Authorities (CPAs) from each Member State and their main industries to the consultation about the development of the user segment composed by all the receivers and devices able to collect the Galileo signals and PRS (Public Regulated Service) market uptake until 2027.
The Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS) will be a distinctive feature of Galileo, providing authorised users such as emergency services providers and national authorities with a more robust and secure signal for critical applications. PRS utilises encrypted signals to be more resistant to jamming, involuntary interference, and spoofing.
EUSPA, which already will launch different market development initiatives under the Horizon Europe Framework Programme (2021-2027), expects this consultation to provide an overview of the industry and institutional priorities for PRS.
The two main primary discussion items for the consultation are:
- Market development for service and technologies in preparation for Galileo’s Full Operational Capability (FOC)
- Support initiatives from EUSPA for the manufacturing sector and production lines upgrade in preparation of FOC
