  • PAULA – PRECISE AND AUTHENTIC USER LOCATION ANALYSIS

    Paula is an EU-funded research project studying and testing the benefits of Galileo's Open Service Navigation Message Authentication (OSNMA), Commercial Authentication Service (CAS) and High Accuracy Service (HAS). The aim of the project is to provide better position, navigation and timing (PNT) performance and resilience. NLS tasks within the project are related to studying the HAS and implementing decoder functionality for scientific purposes.
