From students to professionals qualifié.es, help develop future navigation solutions in partnership with our team of experts. Evolve in a caring environment where your ideas take flight and your contributions strengthen the synergy of the company.

Internationally, we meet the challenges of today and tomorrow, supporting our customers throughout the entire process: from the initial vision to development, to delivery and the collection of their satisfaction.

 

The Context

Syntony GNSS is part of innovative railway projects such as ECOTRAIN or CLUG2, by offering its GNSS receiver as a navigation solution. The location of the train is a critical function, putting the safety of passengers at stake. The receiver must then prove its operational safety, i.e. its ability to perform its functions without the risk of dangerous failures.

Therefore, all the risks to which the positioning system is likely to be affected must be controlled. The contribution of this internship aims to study some of these risks, specifically those concerning the local environment of the receiver.

 

What you’ll accomplish with Syntony GNSS

 

The GNSS receiver estimates its position by receiving and processing satellite signals. The local environment particularly influences the quality of the signals but also their visibility: nearby buildings act as masks and cause multi-path by reflecting signals on their surface.

The description of the elements of the environment is essential to characterize the risk that this induces in the quality of the positioning. We want to use the LIDARHD data to perform this characterization.

LIDARHD is a national project, provided by the IGN (HD LiDAR | Geoservices), which aims to provide France with a three-dimensional map of the territory, in the form of a cloud of classified points: soil, vegetation and buildings are identified. It is a decision-making tool that is particularly interesting for the public authorities, and we want to study its relevance to our problem.

 

Proposed activities

We propose two study activities:

  1. The construction of a tool for assessing environmental masking
  2. Estimation of the criticality of the environment with regard to multipath risks

The first activity will be devoted to the representation in a skyplot, for a given coordinate (x, y, z), of the areas hidden by the buildings, to identify any non-visible satellites.

The second activity will quantify the quality of positioning according to the elements of the environment, taking into account, for example, the footprint, height and distance of buildings according to a given position.

 

The technical skills we are looking for:

  • Data analysis
  • Signal processing
  • Knowledge of Navigation, GNSS System (GNSS receiver, positioning, orbitography, …) is a plus
  • The handling and operation of LIDAR point clouds is appreciated
  • Matlab / Octave / Python (optional)
  • Fluency in technical English and good writing skills English / French
  • A taste for experimentation and analysis of real data is a plus (critical thinking, autonomy, writing)

 

About you

Currently in engineering school or Master’s degree, with a good foundation in mathematics and/or a specialization in space systems, GNSS, signal processing, etc., you are looking for a 6-month internship at the end of your studies. An appetite for scientific programming and theoretical studies with experimental application is also sought.

 

Your technical curiosity, your desire to learn and your team spirit will be the assets necessary for the success of your mission.

The Context

Syntony GNSS participates in innovative railway projects such as ECOTRAIN, offering its GNSS receiver as a navigation solution. The location of the train is a critical function, putting the safety of passengers at stake. The receiver must then prove its operational safety, i.e. its ability to perform its functions without the risk of dangerous failures.

Consequently, all the risks to which the positioning system is likely to be subjected must be controlled. The contribution of this course aims to study some of these risks, specifically those concerning the equipment, the hardware part of the receiver.

The GNSS receiver estimates its position by receiving and processing satellite signals. These signals are amplified, filtered and digitized in an RF chain, and then processed in a position estimation algorithm. Each of these steps is carried out by components with specific functions, and subject to its own degradation modes.

 

 

What you’ll accomplish with Syntony GNSS

The objective of the internship is to characterize the consequences that could be caused by the degradation of certain critical components of the receiver: the LNA (Low Noise Amplifier), the local oscillator, or the filters. Given the value of the material, it is not possible to carry out any real degradation. We then propose to model these potential degradation modes and then to study the impact at the receiver output: the PVT (Position, Speed, Time).

Some modes of degradation have been identified, but their real impact has yet to be specified, and the studies limit themselves to considering for the moment only the complete failure of the receiver. However, in reality, we can expect a deterioration in the quality of positioning.

 

Proposed activities

The work will theoretically consist of 3 stages:

  1. Identification of degradation modes of receiver components
  2. The implementation of means and methods for modelling degradation
  3. Evaluation of the impact of these degradations on the quality of the receiver positioning

Then, depending on the progress of the work, we will be able to imagine ways of protecting certain modes of degradation.

 

The technical skills we are looking for:

  • Data analysis
  • Signal processing
  • Knowledge of Navigation, GNSS System (GNSS receiver, positioning, orbitography, …) is a plus
  • Knowledge of electronics, Radio Frequencies and test and measurement instrumentation (Oscilloscope, Spectrum Analyzer) desired
  • Mastery of Matlab / Octave / Python / C appreciated
  • Fluency in technical English and good writing skills English / French
  • A taste for experimentation and analysis of real data is a plus (critical thinking, autonomy, writing)

The implementation of precise positioning techniques is part of the functionalities of our Syntony GNSS receiver products (whether they are dedicated to outdoor and/or indoor positioning).

 

 

What you’ll accomplish with Syntony GNSS

As part of this internship, it will be a question of carrying out studies on RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) or PPP (Precise Point Positioning) corrections integrated into our real-time GNSS position calculation solution. The aim is to determine the advantages and disadvantages of different integration solutions.

 

Proposed activities

The work will take place in 4 stages:

Study of RTK and PPP Techniques

Investigate the theory behind RTK and PPP techniques.

To analyse the technical and scientific documents available on these methods.

Practical analysis

Compare the performance of RTK and PPP compared to our current GNSS solution in terms of accuracy, latency, and reliability.

Simulate the integration of RTK and PPP into our GNSS solution to assess their impacts on the overall performance of the system.

Pros and Cons Assessment

Identify potential benefits (increased accuracy, reliability) and disadvantages (additional costs, complexity of implementation).

Prepare a detailed report outlining your findings and recommendations.

Using Tools

Use Python for GPS data manipulation and numerical analysis.

Visualize results in a clear and understandable way.
