We are thrilled to announce that the project “Hong Kong GNSS Signal Quality Monitoring and Interference Detection System,” led by Prof. Wu Chen, Head of the Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI), in cooperation with the Logistics and Supply Chain MultiTech R&D Centre (LSCM), has been awarded the Gold Medal at the 49th International Exhibition of Inventions in Geneva, held from 17-21 April 2024.
The International Exhibition of Inventions in Geneva is one of the most prestigious events in the field of innovation and technology, attracting inventors and researchers from around the globe. Winning a Gold Medal at this event is a testament to the ground-breaking nature and exceptional quality of our project.
The Hong Kong GNSS Signal Quality Monitoring and Interference Detection System is an innovative solution designed to continuously monitor the quality of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data in specific local areas. It identifies any sources that may interfere with GNSS signals, ensuring the integrity and reliability of satellite-based navigation and positioning services. This system is designed for global deployment and offers comprehensive monitoring, locating, and warning services. It significantly enhances the positioning service for various applications, including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), communication systems, and other critical infrastructure that rely on accurate GNSS data.
The development of this system involved cutting-edge research and collaboration between LSGI and LSCM, showcasing the synergy between academic research and practical application. The system's ability to detect and mitigate interference in GNSS signals is crucial for maintaining the accuracy and reliability of navigation and positioning services, which are vital for numerous industries and applications worldwide.
A key contributor to this project is Dr. Weng Duojie, Research Assistant Professor of LSGI, whose expertise and dedication have been instrumental in the success of the system.
The recognition at the International Exhibition of Inventions in Geneva underscores the significant impact and potential of our research and development efforts. It highlights the importance of our work in advancing technology and contributing to the global community. This achievement would not have been possible without the dedication and hard work of Prof. Wu Chen, Dr. Weng Duojie and the entire research team.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the team for this outstanding achievement.
