Positioning Navigation Timing Software Defined User Equipment (PNT SDUE)
Abstract
PNT SDUE will develop a Software Defined Receiver (SDR) hosted on a Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) delivering an M-Code GNSS receiver prototype with agile reprogramming capability to provide robust, resilient PNT against navigational warfare (NAVWAR) and cyber threats with a government owned technical baseline. The program will also develop Software Defined Antenna Electronics (SDAE), an associated antenna electronics capability utilizing COTS FPGA equipment to support the ingest of new satellite signals/capabilities and assist in handling these signals in a software reprogrammable environment. The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver and antenna electronics will interface directly with R-EGI via open standards. This program will transition and field advanced User Equipment capabilities from the Navigation Technology Satellite (NTS)-3 Air Force Vanguard effort.
