ESA Teams Up with Leonardo Against Satnav Jamming

Uninterrupted access to satellite navigation is essential in our modern world, but it is threatened daily by external interference, such as jamming and spoofing. New technologies and concepts can help increase the resilience of our satellite navigation solutions. The European Space Agency (ESA) and Leonardo are embarking on a joint project to explore smart antennas powered by Machine Learning to block unwanted signals.
