The European Technology Platforms with the related
Joint Technological Initiatives – the most important
industry-led initiatives based on R&D priorities for
technology sustainable development – cover strategic
fields of broad and regional interests. Among these
strategic industrial fields, the satellite industry has
become a very important sector with a significant impact
on the technological, social, economic and environmental
aspects. Satellite communications have brought many
benefits to society and citizens, in Europe and worldwide.
CIRP IPS2 Conference 2009
The space industry makes a vital contribution to the
renewed Lisbon agenda for ‘jobs and growth’ and to the
i2010 strategy for the European Information Society.
Satellite can help build new markets – i.e. audiovisual and
media new markets – and applications. Digital TV for
example has already been broadcast over pan-European
satellite systems for several years, with hundreds of digital
TV programmes provided to European consumers. This
sector contributes also to the ‘energy and climate change’
and ‘social welfare’ Lisbon objectives with initiatives, such
as the wide footprints of satellites that help humanitarian
organisations to respond to emergencies or disasters,
wherever they occur. Satellite coverage may also be the
only way to provide broadband connectivity to very remote
areas, in the EU or globally, as shown by the recently
announced EU Strategy for Africa.
In this context the role of the European Space Agency has
developed the strong vision for the space sector.
Particularly, Galileo and GMES initiatives demonstrate the
multilevel commitment to the space industry [9] [10] [11].
ISI (Integral Satcom Initiative) European Technology
Platform [12] was launched in 2006 and was established
to bring together for the first time in a unified, industry-led
forum all the research and technology aspects related to
satellite communications, including mobile, broadband,
and broadcasting applications. The purpose is to foster
and develop the entire industrial sector, maximise the
value of European research and technology development,
and contribute to EU and ESA policies [13].
Studies are undertaken to analyse the introduction of new
IPS2 and related business models into markets and to
assess their impact. Among the impact assessment
studies of new technologies for manufacturing roadmaps,
aerospace industry demand has been analysed as one of
manufacturing sectors examined, in terms of R&D needs
within the FP6 Leadership SSA project [14] [15]. This
study showed that aerospace sector’s demand for new
industrial response paradigms and new business models,
together with the need to communicate everywhere and
within a range of very different contexts.
In recent years, many studies, at European, national and
local levels, have been carried out with particular
reference to the use of the Galileo system. These studies
aim to contribute to the development of value-added
services and applications to fully exploit all possible
potential of this system into markets. This development of
services and applications aims to fulfil market
expectations with the development of next generation
IPS2 featuring high value services.
In particular, the following ones are the four Galileo
services:
• The Open Service (OS) that provides position and
timing performance; it is competitive with other GNSS
systems.
• The Safety-of-Life Service (SoL) that improves the
open service performance through the provision of
timely warnings to the user when it fails to meet certain
margins of accuracy (integrity).
• The Commercial Service (CS) that provides access to
two additional signals, to allow for a higher data
throughput rate and to enable users to improve
accuracy.
• The Public Regulated Service (PRS) that provides
position and timing to specific users requiring a high
continuity of service, with controlled access.
This new scenario for the space sector requires innovative
approaches to fully exploiting the high-value features of
satellites, considering not only technological or
economic/financial aspects, but also social and
environmental issues. To this purpose the approach –
proposed in the paper – considers a wide range of criteria
to analyse the full potential of the new enabling
technology.
This paper reports on the methodology – developed and
applied in an evaluation study – for Galileo system to
become the enabling technology for new IPS2 of the
space sector.
