Abstract:

In 2002, the European global navigation satellite system (GNSS) Galileo entered its development phase and is scheduled to become operational in 2008. Since its inception, Galileo has been a contentious issue in transatlantic negotiations because Galileo would undermine the virtual US monopoly in the field of GNSS while providing superior service compared to the current US Global Positioning System (GPS). The most notorious issue has been that of M-Code overlay. Some of Galileo's signals were set to overlap with one of the future US military signals (M-Code). The United States claimed that as a result of this overlay, it would no longer be able to simultaneously jam general GNSS signals and provide US troops with signals from GPS during conflicts (asymmetric use). This paper analyses the negotiations between the US and the European Commission on Galileo since 2002 as well as the compromise devised in 2004.
