Precision Testing for Critical Missions

Military positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) systems must perform under the most demanding conditions — from contested radio frequency (RF) environments to hypersonic flight profiles. Keysight’s PNT test solutions are tailored to the needs of government and defense customers, with support for interference simulation, high-dynamic testing, and classified signal environments. Explore how to validate systems in the lab before they deploy.

Simulating NAVWAR for Realistic PNT Test Scenarios

Modern military operations depend on resilient PNT in contested environments where jamming, spoofing, and encrypted code requirements converge. Learn how to create ultra-realistic navigation warfare (NAVWAR) test scenarios in the lab, including Blue Force Electronic Attack (BFEA) jamming waveforms, inertial emulation, and more.
