EU-Funded Projects
Sateliot is passionately engaging in a range of EU-funded projects
Quango
QUANGO is an EU-funded project focused on providing a secure and reliable exchange of data and information, by using Quantum Key Distribution (QKD).
The use of QKD aims at overcoming the current classical cryptographic systems, preventing the vulnerabilities led by the advent of quantum computers.

QUANGO aims at designing and prototyping the key elements of a satellite mission that targets the delivery of both internet of things (IoT) and QKD services. QUANGO will provide a new paradigm to share the satellite infrastructure required for secure communication based on QKD and for 5G communication.
QUDICE
QUDICE is an EU-funded project which is aimed at the creation and development of components and subsystems for space-based QKD satellite communication network.
The project seeks to create the testbeds to evaluate the components of quantum satellite communications technology as well as the tools required to simulate and monitor space quantum information networks.
Read more
The long-term goal of QUDICE is to assist in the creation of a European satellite network with QKD serving as the primary service.
QUDICE works on 2 different approaches to integrate the technology into space based satellites in Low Earth Orbits: Sequential Rendevous and Entangled Photon Source Rendevous.

ETHER
ETHER is an EU-funded project focused on providing a framework for the terrestrial/non-terrestrial network ecosystem that involves an efficient and zero-touch resource management, provides solution for key radio access network (RAN) challenges, and identifies the business opportunities for potential stakeholders.
Read more
ETHER relies on innovations such as i) Unified RAN advancements, that enable broadband connectivity from every corner of the world even with handheld devices, ii) Intelligent management of the 3D network, allowing the network to self-adapt to rapidly evolving traffic conditions and situations on the ground without human intervention, and iii) a distributed 3D computing and caching medium enabling the reduction of response delays by alleviating congestions towards cloud data center.
ETHER relies on a multi-layered and unified space-aerial-terrestrial architecture, leveraging the benefits of Artificial Intelligence/ Machine Learning (AI/ML) for the optimization of the highly complex and heterogeneous “network of networks”.
AGRARIAN
AGRARIAN will rely on an agile and secure Hybrid Communication Emulated infrastructure (TRL 4-5), incorporating satellite/terrestrial communications technologies (5G, LTE, etc.), IoT infrastructure, device-edge-cloud computing, and large-scale data processing with AI/ML capabilities. This environment will enable the development of tools and apps for agriculture, improving operational effectiveness through real-time data processing and offering a dynamic programming environment for programmers and stakeholders, creating a holistic Agricultural Decision Support System (ADSS) for last-mile connectivity and edge solutions.
Read more
Major efforts in AGRARIAN will address challenges related to sharing data, models, and processing across AI clients and applications. This includes managing model accuracy, and fairness, and addressing different types of biases that may arise due to the contextualized use of AI.
A robust communication infrastructure will support mobile and nomadic applications in areas with weak connectivity, reducing latency, increasing bandwidth, and offering a high degree of automation for quality-of-service performance.
The AGRARIAN platform aims to provide smart connectivity, dynamically meet the requirements of different network technologies, integrate edge and cloud transparently, ensure uniform management of distributed digital infrastructure, and optimize operations for energy consumption. It will include a robust Agricultural Decision Support System (ADSS) considering the specificities of farmers in rural communities.

VITAS
The VITAS Project (Sustainable Intelligent Aerial Transport Vehicle for Medical Supplies) is a project within the Innovative Air Mobility sector that seeks to address these challenges through research in innovative technologies enabling future healthcare logistics solutions in the “emptied Spain” using UAS (Unmanned Aerial System) operated from automated vertiports and 5G IoT satellite communications.
Read more
The VITAS project’s research will focus on the following areas:
– Vertiports: Design and development of a Software as a Service (SaaS) for automating operations in vertiports, including research in automatic detection systems for non-cooperative aircraft.
– Drones: Designing a Vertical Take-Off and Landing Unmanned Aerial System (eVTOL UAS) optimized for healthcare logistics.
– Communications: Research in satellite communication systems for autonomous drone Beyond Visual Line of Sight operations (BVLOS).
The consortium aims to research on the mentioned technological challenges and, therefore, demonstrate the technological feasibility of using highly autonomous drones for long-range healthcare logistics tasks from automated vertiports in areas with low population density that may have limited terrestrial mobile network coverage. The project can contribute to improving safety, increasing operational autonomy, and progressing towards decarbonizing healthcare transport through electric drones.
The project budget is set at 2.9 million euros, with a duration of 2 years. The project will be financed by CDTI (Center for Technological Development and Innovation), which has expressed confidence in the consortium by selecting the VITAS Project under the Aeronautical Technological Program (PTA) for SMEs in 2023.
