Overview

Background & policy context:

Building on the success of FP6 projects (in particular the GREAT project), the GRAMMAR project seeks to address the mass market receiver by extending the current state-of-the-art technologies for the mass market segment.

The GRAMMAR project specifically addressing the following gaps, which have been identified as obstacles for producing high-quality mass market receivers:

  • No economic solutions for accurate dual-frequency RF and baseband hardware;
  • No existing GPS/GALILEO receiver solutions;
  • Poor robustness and location availability in indoor and urban environments.

Objectives:

The goals of GRAMMAR are:

  • The development of a hardware prototype for a mass market receiver using a single chip dual frequency receiver and an FPGA based baseband allowing rapid prototyping of advanced algorithms and techniques.
  • The identification, evaluation and simulation of enhanced algorithm concepts for next generation mass market receivers.

Methodology:

The project will develop functional prototypes of the receiver and its components, enabling practical testing and demonstration upon completion of the project.
