Eviden and Thales integrate Galileo PRS into Eviden’s P3TS receiver

Eviden and Thales integrated Thales’ Galileo PRS capability into Eviden’s P3TS military satellite navigation receiver used by the French army, targeting more resilient positioning for vehicles.

The update focused on improving resistance to electronic warfare threats, including jamming and spoofing, while maintaining integrity and security of positioning data in highly contested operational environments.

The solution integrated Thales’ Galileo PRS into the receiver and used a high-precision clock to maintain synchronization of tactical radios even if GNSS signals were lost. It provided two configurations, including one option that combined Galileo PRS signals with Galileo and GPS open-service signals and another that added advanced anti-jamming capabilities when combining GPS with the TopStar Smart Receiver.

Eviden stated the effort built on an industrialization and operational support programme entrusted to Eviden by the French Defense Procurement Agency (DGA), and included operational support for real-time tactical situational awareness solutions and deployment of SICS, the SCORPION Combat Information System. “We are honored to be able to offer the armed forces a more resilient version of P3TS, thanks to the integration of Thales' Galileo PRS solutions, enabling more secure and reliable missions in high-risk, high-intensity environments. P3TS PRS delivers the accuracy, positioning reliability, resistance to jamming and high availability expected by the armed forces,” said Bernard Payer, head of Mission-Critical Systems, Eviden. “By combining Thales' expertise in resilient navigation with Eviden's proven know-how, we are preserving the operational ability of ground vehicles in electronic warfare environments. Thales is the only company to have developed a Galileo PRS security module in France and to offer a range of modular GNSS receivers - a decisive asset for the forces. ” said Florent Chauvancy, vice president Flight Avionics, Thales.

P3TS supports real-time position and synchronization and provides information to combat information systems, including that of the Scorpion program, SICS, developed by Eviden, and to tactical radios, while the article stated it was built as a sovereign and resilient multi-constellation military geolocation system.
