By Dana A. GowardIn a breakthrough for independent and resilient navigation, a UK-funded project led by quantum technology pioneer Infleqtion has successfully demonstrated flight trials of a quantum-based navigation system that does not rely on GNSS signals.
By Peter GutierrezRecent moves by Estonia demonstrate the strengthening of GNSS resilience through open access, multi-constellation support and European integration.
By Peter GutierrezPower conversion has become a critical focus in the race to make satellite and communications payloads lighter, smaller, and more energy-efficient. Airbus Crisa’s latest development, the Antenna Power Regulator (APR) module, represents a decisive step forward.
By Peter GutierrezCzech company Exact Control System, with support from the European Space Agency (ESA), is redefining digital road rehabilitation with multi-layer GNSS-guided milling, on-board 3D modeling, and selective asphalt recycling.
By Peter GutierrezThe UK government has unveiled a £155 million investment package to harden the country’s Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) infrastructure, backing a mix of terrestrial, satellite-independent, and monitoring capabilities aimed at reducing dependence on vulnerable GNSS signals.

By Peter GutierrezThe ESA-funded MAPP (Maritime Autonomous Positioning Platform) project, led by Space Applications Services with ANavS as subcontractor, has successfully demonstrated a robust, high-accuracy, multi-sensor, positioning and attitude determination system tailored for maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS).
By Peter GutierrezThe Netherlands is preparing to implement a distance-based tolling system for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) exceeding 3.5 metric tons, scheduled to start on July 1, 2026. The initiative aims to modernize road user charging by employing GNSS-based technology to monitor vehicle movements and calculate tolls per kilometer driven.
By Peter GutierrezIn a time of increasing geopolitical tension and the growing incidence of GNSS interference, particularly in Eastern Europe, quantum sensing has emerged as a pivotal alternative technology for ensuring resilient positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) systems.
