BAE Systems demonstrates major advancement in core signal processing capability.
"This development milestone validates that we have the core of our next-generation GNSS user equipment technology in place," said Luke Bishop, director of Navigation and Sensor Systems at BAE Systems. "This capability is foundational to powering future generations of assured Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) products for the U.S. and its allies."
Increment 2 is a significant leap forward in core signal processing capability and supports advanced signal processing, including support for additional satellite networks. The program will develop and qualify a small form factor receiver for use in applications requiring low size, weight, and power. This allows for easier integration into a wider range of platforms, such as battery-powered handheld receivers.
This builds upon the flexibility offered by BAE Systems' current Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) and M-Code Increment 1 products. It provides more capability to outpace the threat, including field reprogramming and a flexible software configuration to meet mission needs.
BAE Systems' extensive portfolio of M-Code GPS and anti-jam products provides flexible, efficient, and reliable navigation and guidance solutions for airborne systems, precision munitions, handheld receivers, and embedded applications. Development of the Increment 2 MSI program is conducted at the company's state-of-the-art facility in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where its team is unlocking the future power of this Next-Generation capability.
