Alternative means of PNT have become a priority for militaries throughout the world as jammers become less expensive and more ubiquitous while the reliance on PNT information increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In particular, Rafael executives are encouraged that \u201cextremely high-performance quantum accelerometers and gyroscopes can be designed to be the basis of the next generation inertial navigation systems,\u201d a company official said.  These sensors can exploit the quantum properties of atoms to measure acceleration and angular rates with unprecedented accuracy, which, in turn, allows for \u201cdead-reckoning navigation for relatively long periods of time while essentially keeping GPS\/GNSS accuracy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rafael\u2019s team working on quantum technology, which includes Alon Gabbay, head of miniature quantum sensors group of the Manor division and Nitzan Link, of the CTO Technology Center of the Manor Division of Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, and the head of the quantum research group of the Ordnance division, were among those who discussed the potential for the technology with Defense News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quantum technology is about sensors that \u201cmeasure discrete energy levels and difference in change with magnetic or electric fields,\u201d a Rafael official said. The struggle for engineers has been that while this technology has existed for decades, particularly in university labs, miniaturizing it and using it in defense systems is a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Rafael is traditionally Israel\u2019s research and development arm for new weapon systems, it is also the company behind the Trophy defense system, Litening targeting pod and Iron Dome air defense technologies.
