GNSS and Inertial Navigation

  • Navigation with Quantum Sensors in Space (SpaceQNav)
    The project is focused on research on innovative quantum inertial sensor technology to improve space navigation. The objective is to significantly increase navigation performance by revolutionizing precision and long-term stability for missions from Earth orbit to the lunar surface. By analysing design requirements and evaluation strategies, the full potential of this technology will be exploited.
