Fast growing number of small satellites
Emerging range of Earth orbiting micro and
nano-satellites
ProblemFast growing number of inexpensive micro- and nano-satellites need inexpensive navigation
Niche market opportunity
Spaceborne Receivers:• Radiation Hard• Expensive• High or Acceptable Accuracy
Consumer Market Receivers:• Small and Cheap• Extremely Sensitive• Very Fast• Acceptable Accuracy
Market demand is not covered by existing technologies
Problem and SolutionFast growing need for small form factor low cost space borne GNSS receivers
They don’t exist now.
We will offer a solution based on proven technologies having on hands good deal of prerequisites.
Technology to solve the problemfor micro- and nano-satellites
GPSGLONASS
GALILEOFPGA MICROCONTROLLER
RF AFE
Key Technology:
• SW Correlation Processing
• Massive Parallel DSP
• Small Radiation Hard FPGA Accelerator to Assist in Massive Parallel DSP
Key Features:
• Low cost, low power
• Small form factor
• Radiation tolerant
(up to 100 krad)
Proposed solution is based on our strong background
• SW Correlation Processing Core
• Orbital Missions from LEO to GEO
• One of world’s most successful space borne GNSS receivers (>40 units launched)
Space-Borne Receiver MosaicGNSS (Astrium GmbH)
Consumer Market DualStar MSB series (Mstar / Mediatek)
• Massive Parallel DSP
• Over 6M units sold
• ~50% of Chinese PND market (2012)
• Massive Parallel DSP
• LEON3 CPU (has fault tolerant version for space applications)
• FPGA-Proven Design
Current challenge for Consumer Market
R&D Team• 10 people covering the whole development cycle • All with advanced degrees, 3 +1 Ph.D.•Highly specialized in GNSS with over 200 man years direct GNSS development experience• Applied GNSS research – 5 US patents, over 50 papers • Customers and partners in USA, Taiwan, Germany, Italy, Spain, Norway• Industrial experience in both space and terrestrial GNSS
Use of proceedsStep Date Cost
Functional prototype - fully functional model with commercial components to verify design and algorithms

Business Model• Global markets, no emphasis to Russia• Revenue generators• IP licensing (to strategic partners only)• GNSS Receivers• GNSS modules• Design services
• Exit • Acquisition by players in space industry• Strategic partnership with GNSS receiver
manufacturers
Summary•New emerging market•High barriers to entry•No technology to address market demand•Market enabling technology is the best competitive advantage
