Currently, the Indian navigation system NavIC in S-band is only supported by a few receivers, especially not monitoring receivers. Compared to standard GNSS signals in L-band, supporting NavIC in S-band requires additional hardware to handle the further frequency. This signal path can also be used for the E6 signal from Galileo and thus for the Galileo HAS service. Galileo HAS is a service that enables highly accurate positioning even without additional correction data.
The new receiver developed in the GOOSE-NavIC project can therefore be used both to support the Indian navigation system NavIC and to integrate the Galileo HAS service.
