ITT Exelis and Chronos Technology Ltd. have agreed to jointly pursue and develop product offerings for the GNSS interference, detection and mitigation (IDM) market. Satellite-based positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) systems are vulnerable to many factors, such as signals jamming, resulting in...More>>

We published a news story recently suggesting that Albert Einstein, the Mighty Hip Einie, got one thing wrong, or at least not quite totally right: the universal upper limit constituted by the speed of light. Precise-timing GPS receivers in a Geneva lab helped indicate that subatomic neutrinos can...More>>

Septentrio's precise-timing GPS receiver PolaRx2eTR features prominently in the OPERA experiment being held at CERN, the European laboratory for particle physics in Geneva, Switzerland. The results of this experiment would seem to indicate that neutrinos can travel at a velocity 20 parts per...More>>

u-blox, the Swiss positioning and wireless chip and module company, announces the immediate availability of the UBX-G6010-ST-TM, a precision timing single-chip based on GPS technology with extreme acquisition sensitivity. It is designed for high-volume applications requiring low-cost precision...More>>
