Terrestrial 3D PNT can serve as a complement and back up to GPS
Expanding the reach of PNT services with next generation terrestrial 3D PNT powered by spectrum
Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) data powers critical infrastructure systems in telecommunications, energy, financial services, and many other industries. That same PNT data is also necessary for essential services for first responders and Enhanced 911 (E911).
The value of PNT services to the economy since first being introduced
100 ns
Accuracy requirement for synchronization of timing on power grids
$1B
$1 billion loss of economic activity per day when GPS is down
Terrestrial 3D PNT can provide resilient, reliable PNT across industries
Ensure uninterrupted operation of critical infrastructure and autonomous systems, even if GPS services are disrupted
PNT Cybersecurity
The risks to modern GPS / PNT systems and the fact that these systems are increasingly software driven has led to security concerns becoming ever-more closely tied withGPSvulnerabilities. Terrestrial signals are over 100,000x stronger than GPS providing risk mitigation.
Telecom PNT Resilience and Mobile Broadband
Telecommunications infrastructure depends on reliable PNT services to synchronize networks, improve capacity, and provide vital services to public safety and 911. Terrestrial 3D PNT can add a layer of resilience to GPS, and added capacity for mobile broadband services.
Timing Synchronization
Synchronizing the electrical grid requires precise timing and phases to ensure uninterrupted, resilient service. Terrestrial 3D PNTcan allow for precise timing at the nanosecond level.
PNT for Data Centers
TerraPoiNT penetrates indoors and in urban locations where GPS signals are unavailable or degraded. This allows TerraPoiNT to meet the timing needs of complex data centers without the need for installation of additional cabling.
Security for Urban Automation
Autonomous vehicles and drones rely on seamless, highly available PNT for 3D positioning and navigation. Terrestrial 3D PNT provides a resilient and secure layer for PNT services which covers entire metropolitan areas.
Indoor Inventory Management
Automated asset tracking systems allow warehouse managers to efficiently manage inventory at scale with IoT devices. Terrestrial 3D PNT can power inventory management operations with precise 3D geolocation data available indoors.
Enhancing Safety Applications
Industrial safety often requires detailed tracking of “lone workers” in multiple dimensions and indoor locations. Terrestrial 3D PNT can extend the reach of location-based applications without the need for investment in site-specific infrastructure.
