About this contract

Request For Information: Resilient Timing and Positioning System for Operation in Degraded GNSS Environments 1. Background The UK Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) is seeking information from suppliers regarding commercially available and proven Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) systems capable of providing accurate timing and position information in environments where Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) services may be degraded, denied, disrupted or manipulated. The intended application is the provision of: 1. a highly accurate UTC-referenced timing signal, and 2. a static position solution to an external system operating in contested electromagnetic environments. This RFI is intended to identify mature technologies and assess the current state of the market. Responses will be used to inform future engagement and procurement activities. Please note: The Authority reserves the right not to undertake future procurement activities following completion of the RFI. 2. Required Capability 2.1. Timing Performance The system shall: • Provide a 1 Pulse Per Second (1PPS) output traceable to UTC. • Provide a 10 MHz frequency reference output. • Maintain a timing a
