To the end of phase IOV (In-Orbit Validation), like already pointed out, there will be the completion of the entire constellation of satellites.
Its geometry is designed in order to allow the multiple launch using launchers of Arianes type or similari. The position of the satellite in the orbit has been studied in such way to concur perennially with the solar paddles of being exposed to the direct beams of the sun (sees figure).
The payload he is much similar one to that one described for satellites GIOVE.
