L5-direct

A satellite navigation receiver that skips the jammed band entirely.

What it does

oneNav builds a satellite navigation receiver that acquires and tracks the GPS L5 signal directly, without first locking onto the older L1 signal most receivers depend on. Because L1 is the band adversaries jam, a receiver that never uses it keeps working when others fail. The company reports six to seven times more interference resilience in the L5 band than legacy designs. Its team came out of GNSS programs at Qualcomm, Apple, Intel, and Trimble.
