- Abstract
The GIOVE satellites (A, B) are test satellites for the European Galileo constellation. It is recognised that the Galileo orbital radiation environment is particularly severe and therefore these satellites carry environment monitoring equipment. This contribution will present some of the observations made and discuss what they teach us about the envirnment expected for the final Galielo constellation.
