    Abstract

    DEMETRA aims to be a prototype of an European time dissemination service, based on the timing signal of the European Galileo system, adding particular features like - among the others - certification, calibration, or integrity, that could be of interest to a wide range of users belonging to different sectors as traffic control, energy distribution, finance, telecommunication, and scientific institutions. Nine time dissemination services are proposed. The paper will report about the development status and the first experimentation results of the system, showing potentialities and limits of the proposed time dissemination services, aiming to foster the exploitation of the European GNSS for timing applications.
