Lord MacKenzie of Culkein – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Transport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord MacKenzie of Culkein on 2016-02-24.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they are funding research into terrestrial enhanced position navigation and timing systems.

Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

Her Majesty’s Government is researching terrestrial technology that could supply positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) needs. For example, Innovate UK is working with other agencies to research the use of quantum technology for PNT applications. In addition, there is research into technologies that supply only some elements of PNT, including ranging mode and radar absolute positioning.
