The objective of GALITS (GAlileo Localization In Train Signalling) is to develop an innovative, flexible and customizable GNSS receiver and antenna suitable for safety-related railway applications. This project – being optimised to offer a high degree of flexibility for responding to global market needs – will provide a cost-efficient solution for the train control system integrators. The receiver and antenna are firstly tested in Italy (possibly on the Novara Rho Pilot line) targeting the European market and then the rapidly evolving opportunities in the Asian and Far East markets.
The product is designed to be integrated with additional sensors and compatible with on-board train control systems for various applications (i.e. the Virtual Balise concept for ERTMS, and absolute train positioning).
