CONCLUSIONS
Different precisions for different types of receivers
Galileo E5 AltBOC outperforms other GPS and Galileo signals
Galileo E1 & GPS L1 show the worst precision values
Galileo signals are more precise than GPS signals
GPS L2/ GPS L5, Galileo E5a/Galileo E5b show similar quality

Conclusions
POSITION precisions
Galileo signals show a better precision than GPS signals
Galileo E5 AltBOC is superior to other signals
OBSERVATION precisions
The CLGE Student's Contest 2016 - C.Deprez
Conclusions
POSITION precisions
OBSERVATION precisions
Limited number of available Galileo satellites degrades the solution
Days with good satellite visibility allow reaching few decimetres precisionFor baselines from 5 metres to 23 kilometres
When compared to reduced-GPS constellation, Galileo results are very promising
