Washington View: 5G, PNT, and Air Safety

A deadlock over 5G implementation, and the potential hazards the technology would create for air traffic safety, has been at least temporarily resolved. Not all questions have been answered nor problems eliminated, however. And while radio altimeters do not use GPS or GNSS technology, they are definitely PNT devices, and this situation could create precedents for ongoing and future conflicts between telecom and PNT use of the finite radio spectrum.

Software-Defined GNSS Receiver Goes Open Source

The Finnish Geodetic Institute (FGI) of the National Land Survey of Finland announced the release of its software-defined receiver as open source for the international GNSS community. The GSRx software receiver has been extensively used as a research platform for the last decade in different national and international R&D projects to develop, test and validate novel receiver processing algorithms for robust, resilient and precise position, navigation and timing (PNT).

Military GPS Equipment Delays Prompt Army, Marines to Buy Direct, Says Latest Pentagon Report

U.S. military efforts to field jam-resistant GPS weaponry not only run behind schedule, they continue to fall back, according to the annual report from the Department of Defense (DoD) Director, Operational Test and Evaluation (DOT&E) Nickolas Guertin. Because “the lack of M-code capable receivers limits the M-code use by U.S. and allied warfighters,” branches of the Armed Forces are now sourcing directly from commercial suppliers.
