Quantum‐Enhanced Sensing and Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT)

The Government is seeking novel quantum sensing prototype technologies, architectures, and approaches that provide improved resilience, accuracy, and precision. Technologies for improved localization, timing precision and radio frequency sensing are necessary to outpace evolving threats to Army systems. There is a need to develop and demonstrate quantum-based sensing approaches for Position Navigation and Timing (PNT) and communications outside of laboratory conditions. Successful prototype will develop architectures and approaches for deployable quantum sensors and demonstrate the feasibility of their approach in a relevant environment.
