Initial use of Galileo signals in PTB

We report on the initial use of Galileo signals in the Time and Frequency Department of Physikalisch-Technische Bundeanstalt (PTB). To this end PTB operated five GNSS receivers capable of receiving Galileo Open Service signals with calibrated signal delays for the two frequencies E1 and E5a.
