Objective

This Horizon Europe grant is to be understood within a wider context on EUSST, where other grants are being executed simultaneously with the common objective of improving the EU autonomy on Space Surveillance and Tracking.In particular, this TOP focuses on:- Support the upgrade, development and security issues of EUSST infrastructure based on the European network of assets (sensors, operation centres, front desk …)- The EUSST infrastructure will remain under national control (meaning mainly sensors and operation centres), but increased coordination is needed due to the increased number of assets contributing to the European SST system. - SST networking of sensors & operation centres (EU SST network Command & Control): considering the increased number of objects to be handled, an increased number of events and users is expected.- The European SST system has to evolve to a coordinated scheduling of the resources and assets, ensuring that the events are covered in an optimum way, while the current survey and tracking of the space objects population continues to be performed.- Research on EUSST network hardening against external threats: the research concerns security-critical aspects of the existing EU SST network. - Next generation exchange protocols / solutions for SSA enhancing interoperability and security (robustness, information assurance, intrusion detection…)The starting point of these activities is the output of 2-3SST2018-20, which constitutes the state of the art on SST matters.
