Britain and France will collaborate on technology to enhance positioning and navigation capabilities as GPS becomes increasingly vulnerable to interference, notably in areas like Ukraine. The joint efforts announced include a focus on protecting critical infrastructure reliant on GPS for various civilian applications. Experts will investigate complementary technologies such as eLoran, a terrestrial system less susceptible to jamming. By exploiting low frequency radio signals, eLoran can maintain functionality in places where satellite systems fail, thereby improving the security and reliability of essential services.
Britain and France are collaborating to enhance technology supporting PNT systems in response to GPS vulnerabilities highlighted by signal jamming during the Ukraine conflict.
The initiative focuses on eLoran, a terrestrial-based navigation system designed to be more resistant to jamming, ensuring resilient critical infrastructure for civilian applications.
