The threat of GPS jamming extends beyond aviation. Without GPS, our lives would grind to a halt: in 2017, a government report stated that systematic GPS jamming could bring the UK's financial, ...

The plan is simple: to develop a more secure alternative to GPS by enabling the portable use of new atomic clocks, rather than relying on signals from satellites in space that can be jammed.

Breakthrough could pave the way for next-generation GPS in drones, smartphones and self-driving cars, scientists say.

GPS works by users receiving signals from multiple satellites. The length of time it takes each signal to reach a device is used to determine exactly where on Earth we are. Very large atomic clocks ...

Analysis: Measuring time to the 19th decimal place, as nuclear clocks ... to a satellite and onto another device. A better definition of the second will translate to much more accurate GPS.

Join President Sandoval and Professor Geoffrey Blewitt as they discuss the science of geodesy, the ways in which GPS impact ...

Every GPS satellite carries an atomic clock so accurate that it drifts by just a few billionths of a second each day. A device on Earth uses the signals from multiple satellites, each with a ...

The future of navigation will integrate quantum sensors to enhance location accuracy (via Earth's magnetic and gravitational fields), improve orientation (via quantum gyroscopes), and enable superior ...
