ORNL develops advanced GPS interference alarm using AI-powered radio analysis

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a portable device capable of detecting GPS interference, including spoofing and jamming. The system can differentiate between real and fake GPS signals even when they are of equal strength, a capability not found in existing interference detectors. This technology, which utilizes a software-defined radio and an embedded GPU with a novel RF analysis method, operates independently of GPS signals and has shown superior performance in tests with the US Department of Homeland Security.
