In www.usegalileo.eu website it is possible to consult a complete list of different Galileo enabled receivers, chipsets or modules that can be found on the market classified by sector and type of device."
Aha! I thought...I'm getting close!
https://www.usegalileo.eu/EN/inner.html#data=smartphone
Looking at that list, I found a reference to my dual-frequency device: A Oneplus Nord 200. Oh no! It says:
OnePlus
Nord N200 5G

Galileo HAS accuracy typical 95% horizontal accuracy should be less than 20cm and 95% vertical should be less than 40cm.
Dear Jim,I am sorry about you being dissapointed by the useGalileo table accuracy. In fact, that list reflects what the manufacturers and other device spec lists advertise.
Of course, there could be errors, but it is, overall, a useful tool for the community. I must say that the GPSTest list is a wonderful resource to get an accurate view of what's going on into each device. But, even so, please note that there are cases where different versions of the same device display different constellation or frequency capabilities in the GPSTest list... So, in fact, this is a tricky problem, without a black-or-white solution (and it is out of the responsibility of the Galileo programme).Regarding the use of Galileo HAS, there are useful resources at the GSC website: https://www.gsc-europa.eu/electronic-library/programme-reference-documents#ACCURACY. There, all the information about how to use this service is provided.As per your interest in using it in smartphones:
- The Galileo HAS is not oriented at single-frequency operation. There is, though, some research on the field: the corrections may still be useful with one frequency, but of course far from the performance levels committed in the Galileo HAS SDD.
- The Galileo HAS can be used with the corrections coming from the E6 band (not yet in smartphones) or with the corrections coming from the alternative NTRIP interface (through the Internet).
The latter is the only way, to date, where HAS corrections could be used in smartphones. To use them, you would need to register to the Internet Data Distribution interface
and to have a PPP engine in the phone (able to apply corrections from the IDD caster)
. The Galileo HAS PPP reference algorithm has not been released yet, but any other PPP engine should do.
- Still, the smartphone chipset and antenna are not good enough to get the most from the Galileo HAS service: only submeter accuracy can be achieved, but this happens also with other correction services.
There is a paper by Google on this regard in the past ENC congress, whose presentation I can provide to you, where it shows how Galileo HAS is performing with several Android terminals.
There are already several solutions about Galileo HAS in the market,
I expect a list will become public in the GSC site real soon. This material was already presented in the Galileo HAS days, organized in Madrid last June. If you are interested, I can give you more information on the topic. I hope, though, that more solutions become available in the LBS market soon, which is unfortunately not yet the case.

@Jim - Thanks for sharing your findings and...frustration. I went through part of that a couple of years ago, experimenting with all kind of apps I installed on my Xiaomi Mi 8 and finding "high accuracy GPS" on a smartphone was a confusing "no man's land" at the end of the day.
Some apps came from "contests" organized by the ESA, others from private providers, generally came with no instructions, little documentation and zero user community with the odd message here and there in this group. With a search you can find the summary threads I'd started at the time. The bottom line is that there was no consumer solution then and there is no consumer solution now !
Case in point the uBlox 8 chipset that could be used to handle RTK corrections but that feature was disabled on the $20 receivers sold on AliExpress, fortunately I found some "medicine" after trawling Russian forums and got it to work...not that I needed the accuracy. What consumer is going to need better accuracy than what Google Maps provides ? What are you going to compare it too ?
Dear GSC User,
Please find below the reply from our expert team.
First of all, thank you very much for your interest in Galileo.
The Galileo HAS Initial Services - Service Definition Document (SDD) describes the Galileo HAS service and its expected performance. Section 2.4 of the Galileo HAS SDD describes the relevant assumptions at user level and the use of Galileo HAS on smartphones has not been verified. This is due to:
As it is stated on the FAQs section of the GSC website, “you need a compatible Galileo-enabled receiver capable of receiving, decoding and properly applying (refer to the corresponding interface control documents) the HAS corrections from the Signal-In-Space (SIS) or the Internet Data Distribution (IDD) interface. Additionally, in order to compute a HAS positioning solution, an appropriate PPP user algorithm is required”. This means:
Please, be aware of the following remarks:
The current limitations are published under a news item in the EUSPA website:
Finally, we will take note of your feedback for future updates of the applicable HAS documentation.
We hope that this replies to your request, and please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
Thank you for contacting the GSC.

Asunto: Re: [GSC][USER REQUEST][Ticket #1589]
I am afraid that you have not answered my questions. I want to know, as an end-user, how to activate Galileo HAS corrections on my Android smartphones. What actions do I take, PRECISELY, and in detail. Do I run an App? What do I do? Exactly which steps do I take? In detail. One by one. Your literature DOES NOT claim that I cannot, successfully, do this NOW. But nevertheless, you do not explain HOW to accomplish this.

Dear GSC User,
Your request (ID ticket #1589) has now been addressed by the European GNSS Service Centre. Please find below the reply from our expert team.
First of all, thank you very much for your interest in Galileo.
The Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) provides free of charge access, through the Galileo signal (E6-B, HAS SIS) and by terrestrial means (Internet, HAS IDD), to the information required to estimate an accurate positioning solution using a Precise Point Positioning algorithm in real-time.
This means that:
- When retrieving the corrections via HAS SIS, at least dual-frequency capabilities are needed, but, of course, the performance will improve when using triple-frequency.
- When the corrections are obtained through HAS IDD, only single-frequency capabilities are required. But, again, when using dual-frequency, better performance levels will be attained.
As of now, smartphones can be single (E1) or dual (E1/E5) frequency Galileo-enabled devices (or even not Galileo enabled for certain models). This means that smartphones are not currently capable of receiving the Galileo E6-B band, where HAS SIS corrections are broadcasted. Regarding HAS IDD, each app provider/manufacturer (i.e., Android, Apple, Google, etc.) should develop their own methods to apply HAS corrections transmitted through Ntrip to the navigation data received through the Open Service.
The following non-exhaustive list* shows some reference manufacturers of E6-enabled chipsets as starting point for a more detailed search depending on your needs.

* The above list shows chipset and modules with Galileo E6 capability and EUSPA does not assume any responsibility for the chipset you select for your solution. The correct selection will depend on the user requirements and the specific application you are intended to use the chipset for. We encourage you to contact the manufacturers for further details.
Thank you for contacting the GSC.
