GMV has recently reached a significant milestone in the STARLITE project, with the standard developed in this project successfully passing a Europe-wide validation survey with 100% positive votes. 

Funded by the European Commission, the STARLITE project aims to develop the first international standard for Galileo GNSS timing receivers. Launched in January 2022 and due for completion in July 2024, this first international standard has been developed as part of the European standardization organizations CEN/CENELEC, which set up the international working group led by GMV, where experts from various countries collaborated in drafting the standard.

The validation phase, which concluded on May 30, confirmed the international consensus needed to publish the standard. The comments received during this survey will be managed and implemented before final publication, which is scheduled for December 2024.

This standard is crucial for the future timing service of the Galileo Second Generation System. It has been developed taking into account the characteristics of the timing service so that anyone using receivers developed according to this standard can benefit from its capability commitments, thus reinforcing GMV's position as a leading company in GNSS timing and receivers.

Securing 100% positive votes is a major achievement, since the necessary international consensus for publication of the standard as a European standard was reached. This success has enabled GMV to enter the final review of the project, due to take place in mid-July, with renewed confidence.

GMV has led the drafting of the standard, in collaboration with ALTER, UNE, EY, the JRC (Joint Research Centre), and the European Commission. The standard includes specific requirements for receivers, tests to validate these requirements, and relevant informative annexes for users. GMV has also carried out internal experimentation and dissemination activities to gather feedback from the international community and use this to obtain a higher-quality result.
