A microservice node can receive a request for information identifying a corrected physical location of a client device. The request can include raw satellite data associated with the client device. The microservice node can convert the raw satellite data to a Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services (RTCM) format. The microservice node can determine, based on converting the raw satellite data to the RTCM format, an estimated physical location of the client device. The microservice node can receive, based on transmitting a request to a network real-time kinematics (RTK) device, corrections data associated with the estimated physical location of the client device. The microservice node can determine, using a cloud RTK engine, the corrected physical location of the client device based on the estimated physical location and corrections data. The microservice node can transmit, to the client device, the information identifying the corrected physical location of the client device.

Providing a location as a service

A microservice node can store first raw satellite data, associated with a first satellite constellation, in a first electronic file in a first data store, can combine the first electronic file and one or more second electronic files, associated with the first satellite constellation, into a first compressed electronic file, and can store the first compressed electronic file in a second data store. The first raw satellite data and second raw satellite data can be received during a particular time period. The second data store can include a second compressed electronic file that includes third raw satellite data associated with a second satellite constellation. The microservice node can receive a request from a client device, can combine the first compressed electronic file and the second compressed electronic file into a third compressed electronic file based on the request, and can transmit the third compressed electronic file to the client device.

Storing and providing raw satellite data

A system can include a producer device to receive reference data from a reference station. The system can include a queue device to store a reference message, corresponding to the reference data, in a message queue. The system can include a mapping device to store mapping information indicating that the message queue is associated with the reference station. The system can include a consumer device to identify the message queue as being associated with a microservice to be provided to a client device based on a microservice request. The message queue can be identified based on the mapping information. The consumer device can obtain the reference message from the message queue, generate corrections data associated with the client device, and provide the corrections data.

Microservices architecture for cloud-scale global navigation satellite system

A microservice node can include a network real-time kinematics (RTK) device to receive raw satellite data associated with a physical reference station via a first message in a first message queue, to receive static virtual location data associated with a static virtual reference station (VRS) agent, to generate corrections data for the static VRS agent based on the raw satellite data and the static virtual location data, and to transmit the corrections data to the static VRS agent. The microservice node can include the static VRS agent to publish the corrections data in a second message in a second message queue. The microservice node can include an adapter device to determine that the client device is located within a geographic area associated with the static VRS agent and to transmit the corrections data from the second message queue to the client device.

Static virtual reference station agents for global navigation satellite system corrections

A device may receive, from a client device, a request with a single packet authorization (SPA) packet that includes data identifying a universal client device identifier. The device may generate a shared key associated with the universal client device identifier, and may determine that the SPA packet matches a comparison message authentication code (MAC) generated based on the shared key. The device may provide, based on the SPA packet matching the comparison MAC, a MAC associated with the SPA packet to the client device to enable the client device to validate the device.

Systems and methods for utilizing quantum entropy in single packet authorization for secure network connections

A computer device may include a memory storing instructions and processor configured to execute the instructions to receive a request for quantum random numbers from a client device. The processor may be further configured to establish a secure communication channel with the client device; obtain a stream of quantum random numbers from a quantum random number generator appliance; and provide a set of quantum random numbers from the obtained stream of quantum random numbers to the client device via the established secure communication channel.

Quantum entropy distributed via software defined perimeter connections

A device may receive, from a client device, a request with a single packet authorization (SPA) packet that includes data identifying a universal client device identifier (UID), a counter, a first one-time password generated based on a first shared key, the UID, and the counter. The device may generate a second shared key associated with the UID, and may compare the SPA packet to a comparison message authentication code (MAC) generated based on the second shared key, the UID, and the counter. The device may determine whether the SPA packet matches the comparison MAC, and may validate the client device when the SPA packet matches the comparison MAC. The device may provide a MAC associated with the SPA packet to the client device to enable the client device to validate the device for a secure communication based on establishing a pre-master key with the client device.

A device receives reference data from reference receivers associated with base stations, and synchronizes the reference data to a reference time to generate synchronized reference data for the reference receivers. The device processes the synchronized reference data to determine location error information associated with one or more of the reference receivers, and receives information indicating that a user device, located at an observed location, connects to a particular base station of the base stations. The device determines a location correction for the observed location, or an actual location of the user device, based on particular location error information for a particular reference receiver, of the reference receivers, associated with the particular base station, and causes information identifying the location correction or information identifying the actual location of the user device to be provided to the user device.
