Airbus and Lime partner for the development of a GNSS receiver


Lime Microsystems and Airbus Defence and Space, with funding from Innovate UK, have announced a joint development of robust Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) products. Airbus D&S, using Lime's Field Programmable RF (FPRF) transceiver technology, is developing a robust timing receiver that exploits signals from the Galileo satellite navigation constellation.

It is envisaged that a highly integrated FPRF solution based on Lime's technology and an innovative system implementation of the kind provided by Airbus D&S will provide a high performance GNSS product with the potential for integration with other wireless capabilities.

Mike Turner from Airbus D&S said: "Lime FPRF transceiver matches our rigorous technical performance requirements and we are looking forward to working alongside Lime in this strategic engagement".

Ebrahim Bushehri ceo of Lime Microsystems said: "We are delighted to be working with Airbus, supporting a complimentary technology that could impact a variety of applications such as wireless infrastructure".

The GNSS is Europe's version of the Russian GLONASS and the US GPS systems. Created by the European Union and the European Space Agency, the project cost 5billion Euros and can be run independently in the event of other countries disabling their satellite positioning systems.
