GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS) & NAVIGATION TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

The overarching objective of this activity is to develop technologies that enable the development of affordable, effective and robust Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) capabilities using either GPS systems, non-GPS navigation devices, or atomic clocks. This activity will increase the operational effectiveness of U.S. Naval units. The focus is on the mitigation of GPS electronic threats, the development of atomic clocks that possess unique long-term stability and precision, and the development of compact, low-cost, Inertial Navigation Systems (INS). The following are non-inclusive examples for projects funded in this activity. As a result of a comprehensive DOD wide assessment of current S&T investments in the area of Position, Navigation and Timing, there has been increased investment in the Global Positioning System (GPS) & Navigation Technology thrust for Assured Time Dissemination research.
