Strategic Objectives
• Master the fundamental physics of electromagnetic phase interference.
• Unlock sub-arcsecond angular resolution without relying on timing codes.
• Understand the mechanics of massive antenna arrays and synthesis imaging.
• Explore cutting-edge applications from deep space exploration to secure geolocation.
The Core Challenge
Traditional visual and timing-based positioning systems fail in complex environments or at astronomical distances where accuracy is non-negotiable.
