THE CONCEPT OF DUALITY
 When we use the term duality (or dual use) we refer to the
simultaneous use of a single asset or capability (and related
technologies) both by military and civilian users.
 Italy succeded in applying dual-use concept to space systems
 Today we have two
implementing phase:
Systems already in service or in the
COSMO-SKYMED (Radar Earth Observation System)
ATHENA FIDUS (SATCOM - Access on THeatres and European
Nations
for Allied forces - )

Conditions for a dual system
• Different user needs lead to the identification
of a set of common/compatible requirements
(e.g. time schedule, performance, budget)
• Technology is a qualifying factor
• National/international
laws/regulations/agreements
• Organization/Program management
– Inter-Organization teamwork (e.g. Italian Space
Agency and Defence)

From different needs to dual
(compatible) requirements
Mapping high level needs at users’ level
Dual Use technologies allow to offer unified solutions to civil and
military needs, granting the requirements of each component
Military Needs
• Priority requests handling
• Data confidentiality and NEO
• Classified imaging products

Security issues
• Security applies as follows to dual-use approach
• Protecting System Assets and information at
Defence standard level wherever necessary
• Ensuring service availability
• Allowing
flexibility
in
the
access
to
services/information
(essential
for
civilian
business).
• Security is a “constraining” requirement

Security issues
• Specific security provisions are mainly relevant to the
following areas:

Legislative and organizational aspects:
rules in the operational phase
• Both Civilian and Defense Users must follow specific
system-level rules which constrain the global
operational behavior in order to ensure a full system
resources utilization and provide the required level
of security and confidentiality.
• These rules are applied to each system partnership,
both in the Civilian and Defense domains, in the
frame of each authorized Partner specific agreement
and of the System Usage Quota which the Partner
has available.

Introduction
• Cooperation between France and Italy
French and Italian Governments defined a
cooperation
framework including the dual-use
broadband communication satellite program named
Athena FIDUS (= Access on Theatres and European
Nations for Allied forces – French Italian Dual Use
Satellite)

Introduction
• Development of the Space segment
After a joint feasibility study and a competition
process process, ASI, CNES and Ministries of
Defense (MoD’s) awarded to a French-Italian
industrial team a contract for the definition and
development
of
a
dual-use
satellite
telecommunication system providing broadband
services

The mission background – 1
The main objectives of the mission are the following:
 Provide communication services dedicated to Armed
Forces, complementary to military existing solutions
 Support Governmental services including Defence
 Use of civil standards and technologies in order to
reduce significantly the cost of in orbit bandwidth
versus current military or commercial solutions
19 Maggio 2011
17
The mission background – 2
 Get reasonable space segment investment
cost
 Adopt low cost user terminal
 Allow services exploitation starting by 2013
 15 years lifetime

The mission background – 3
Defence and Civil Protection have increased their
demand for “non-strategic” broad band connectivity
services in support of the operators involved in
peace-keeping and peace enforcing operations in
foreign theatres. This leads to implementation of
steerable spots easily re-pointable over the entire
visible hemisphere

Overview of Space Systems/Applications
supporting civil/defense aviation
• European Air Traffic is expected to double by 2020
• Existing communication protocols and associated satellite
systems have been judged not suitable by EUROCONTROL
and FAA.
• Iridium and AMSS (Inmarsat, MTSAT) communication
systems do not provide sufficient bandwidth per aircraft
• They have not been designed to meet delay and availability
requirements of continental airspace where the air traffic is
dense
• Cost of user terminals/communications for airlines is high
• Iridium does not operate in a frequency band protected for
aeronautical safety communications
• There is no long-term (6+ years) guarantee on service
provision

Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT)
• GNSS – Global Navigation Satellite System
In particular Galileo system
• SBAS – Satellite Based Augmentation System
In particular EGNOS
Telecommunication (SATCOM)
• ADS-C Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Contract (current)
• SESAR, IRIS and Antares Programs (evolution)

PNT – GNSS, Galileo
• GALILEO belongs to PNT-GNSS like GPS (USA), GLONASS
(Russia) and BEIDOU (China);
• It is the result of the cooperation between European Union (EU)
and the European Space Agency (ESA); the aim is to achieve an
autonomous european capability;
• The system consists of three segments: Space Segment based on a
constellation of 30 satellites, Ground Segment including the
GALILEO Control Centres (GCC), the GALILEO Sensor
Stations (GSS), the Telemetry, Telecommand & Tracking Stations
(TT&C) and the Mission Up-link Stations (MUS), all connected
through the GALILEO Communications Network (GCN); User
Segment, composed by a variety of receiver terminals.

PNT – GNSS, Galileo
• GALILEO will provide services and data:
• OPEN SERVICE (OS): free of charge service for mass
application: all users can receive it without any authorisation;
• SAFETY of LIFE SERVICE (SoL): in addition to the OS service
SoL offers the integrity control of data. It is foreseen for special
application like maritime and air navigation, railway
transportation and will be used only by users with special certified
receivers;
• SEARCH and RESCUE (SAR): service with high accuracy to
detect emergency beacons and reduced transmission time for
alarms coming from everywhere on the earth;

Overview of Space Systems/Applications
supporting civil/defense aviation
PNT – GNSS, Galileo
• COMMERCIAL SERVICE (CS): for commercial use with better
performances than OS. CS is protected by an additional pair of
uncrypted signal using commercial type keys
• PUBLIC REGULATED SERVICE (PRS): this service is for
authorised governamental users only like police, civil protection,
border control and military users: These users need a service with
high reliability and availability.

Overview of Space Systems/Applications
supporting civil/defense aviation
PNT – GNSS, Galileo
• GALILEO is going to have a significant impact on Air Traffic
Management;
• Improved precision and reliability of GALILEO-PNT data will
grant a better positioning of the aircraft expecially during the
approach and landing;
• Dual receivers (GPS-GALILEO) or multi-constellation
receivers (including COMPASS and BEIDOU) will improve the
overall performances as well.

System
Satellite-based
augmentation
systems (SBAS), such as EGNOS,
complement
existing

navigation
satellite
systems.
SBAS compensate for certain
disadvantages of GNSS (GPS,
GALILEO, GLONASS) in terms of
accuracy, integrity, continuity and
availability.
EGNOS is the result of a tripartite agreement between ESA, the
European Commission and EUROCONTROL.

The scope of this project is to develop technologies,
methods of organisation and industrial components
both on the ground and in the aircraft that are capable
of ensuring the safety and fluidity of air transport
worldwide in the next 30 years.

Conclusions
Development of new satellite systems cannot disregard the dualuse concept
Defence successfully experienced this concept with the Cosmo
Skymed system in the Earth Observation area
Defence is testing this concept in the international environment
with a military-civilian two-nations SATCOM system
In the area of PNT Systems and SATCOM supporting civil/military
aviation Defence is following the evolution of the most important
european initiatives (Galileo and SESAR)
