Examples in accordance with this disclosure provide a system for detecting a spoofed signal, the spoofed signal comprising position-navigation-timing (PNT) data. The system can include a first antenna and a second antenna, both configured to receive one or more first signals from one or more navigation satellites. The first antenna and second antenna can be configured to be separated by a first distance. The system can include a first receiver coupled to the first antenna and a second receiver coupled to the second antenna, where each antenna is configured to receive one or more signals from the respective antenna. Each of the first receiver and the second receiver are configured to extract a respective carrier phase data.

Carry-on GPS spoofing detector

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for detecting spoofing of a navigation device. A plurality of anti-spoofing techniques are provided. The plurality of anti-spoofing techniques detect interference with data provided by one or more navigation devices for a plurality of threat situations. Positioning, timing and frequency characteristics associated with the one or more navigation devices are analyzed in order to identify a threat situation among the plurality of threat situations. Based on the identified threat situation one or more of the anti-spoofing techniques are executed. The one or more anti-spoofing techniques can be executed in parallel in order to provide various anti-spoofing detection techniques at the same time.

GPS spoofing detection techniques

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for a GNSS interference and spoofing fast detection and mitigation system. A RF signal associated with a PNT device, such as a GNSS receiver, is received. The received RF signal is split into a plurality of sub-data signals. The received RF signal is re-routed by sending each of the plurality of sub-data signals to at least one of a processing module and a switching module. An anomaly associated with a second sub-data signal is detected. The anomaly is detected during a capture period of an adversarial attack on the PNT device, prior to corruption of any associated system depending on outputs from the PNT device. An output of a first sub-data signal of the plurality of sub-data signals is terminated based on the anomaly detected with the second sub-data signal.

Positioning, navigation, and timing device interference and spoofing detector with timing mitigation

A multi-band helix antenna including one or more first arms extending helically about an axis at a first distance from the axis; and one or more second arms extending helically about the axis at a second distance from the axis that is greater than the first distance, wherein each of the one or more second arms comprises at least one trap circuit configured to have a first impedance at a resonant frequency of the one or more first arms and a second impedance at a resonant frequency of the one or more second arms, and the first impedance is greater than the second impedance.

Decoupled concentric helix antenna

A helix antenna including a first radiating element extending helically about a longitudinal axis and tuned to resonate in a frequency band, a reactive element electrically connected to a first end of the first radiating element, and a second radiating element extending helically about the axis and electrically connected to the reactive element at a first end of the second radiating element, wherein the second radiating element is tuned to resonate in the frequency band.

Horizon nulling helix antenna

A microstrip antenna for circularly polarized radiation including a substrate, a ground layer disposed on a first side of the substrate, a first radiating layer disposed on a second side of the substrate opposite the first side, one or more first electrically conductive pathways extending from the ground layer to the first radiating layer, wherein the one or more first electrically conductive pathways form a ring about an axis, one or more second electrically conductive pathways extending from the ground layer to the first radiating layer, wherein the one or more second electrically conductive pathways are disposed along a portion of a first line extending outwardly from the ring, and a feed conductor for connecting the antenna to a feed line.
