Description

Resilient free-space optical precise positioning and time synchronisation. The aim of this Industry Fellowship is to demonstrate optical precise positioning and time synchronisation across free-space links for the first time. The project will achieve this feat by bringing together cutting-edge optical technologies to enable a globally unique translation opportunity. The expected outcome of this Fellowship will be the world-first demonstration of optical precise positioning and time synchronisation between a transportable ground terminal and an aircraft. This a key validation for medium-term commercialisation opportunities for a terrestrial optical precise positioning and time synchronisation system, and a critical steppingstone to a next-generation, resilient, space-based position, navigation, and timing network.. Scheme: Mid-Career Industry Fellowships. Field: 4009 - Electronics, Sensors and Digital Hardware. Lead: Prof Sascha Schediwy
